Description:... This book gives a self-contained introduction to the theory of lambda-rings and closely related topics, including Witt vectors, integer-valued polynomials, and binomial rings. Many of the purely algebraic results about lambda-rings presented in this book have never appeared in book form before. This book concludes with a chapter on open problems related to lambda-rings.
