complex number, addition and multiplication of two ( or more) complex numbers, inverse of a non-
zero complex number, their geometric interpretation and trigonometric form ([9]), De Moivre’s
Theorem, nth roots of a complex number ([9]), theory of equations.

 Group Theory
Sets and relations([1], 0.1-0.4), equivalence relation, functions, bijective functions, composite of two
or more functions, and inverse of a function: existence and uniqueness, binary operations, identity
and inverse with respect to a given binary operation, uniqueness of identity and inverses, congruence
relations ([1], 0.1-0.4), introduction and motivation to groups through dihedral groups, definition and
examples of groups (including cartesian product of two groups), elementary properties of groups ([6],
Ch-1 & 2), finite groups and subgroups, subgroup tests, examples of subgroups ( including cyclic
subgroups, center of a group, centralizer and normalizer of subgroups, subgroup generated by subset)
([6], Ch-3).

 Ring Theory
Introduction to rings, motivation and definition, examples and properties of rings, uniqueness of
identity and inverses when they exist ([6], Ch-12), definition of sub rings, sub ring test, center of a
ring, examples, Sum and Product of sub rings, union and intersection of sub rings, unity of a sub ring
if it exists*([6], Ch-12), definition of a zero divisor and an integral domain, examples of integral
domain, cancellation law with respect to multiplication, units of a ring and group of units of a ring,
nilpotent and idempotent elements of rings, definition of a field, finite integral domains, the field of
integers modulo p, p a prime ([6], Ch-13).

 Linear Algebra
Definition of a vector space over , examples, subspaces, linear combinations, subspace spanned by a
set, sum, product and intersection of subspaces, ([8], 4.1), null space and column space of a matrix,
linear transformations, kernel and range of a linear transformation([8], 4.2), linearly dependent and
