Abstract
The purpose fo this project is to study ideals in polynomial rings and affine varieties in order to establish a connection between these two different concepts. Doing so will lead to an in depth examination of Groebner bases. Once this has been defined, step will be outlined that will enable the application of the Groebner Basis Algorithm to geometric problems.
