- It is not until section 7 that we deal with commutative algebra proper, whereas the sections leading up to it should be seen as advocacy that excursions into noncommutative algebra can help to shed light on problems in commutative algebra.
- (algebra) Any algebra (mathematical structure) in which the multiplication operation is commutative.
