People who don’t learn or understand this material probably won’t use it, but people who do may be surprised to find where it is useful. This applies not just to the content of the course, but to its association with careful, creative thinking. It will probably be up to you to find places where you can use this mathematics. But depending on your career, you may find that things that are now obvious to you are not known to others; or on the other hand, you may find it taken for granted that you know this material and much more. But most likely, you may actually use the subject of this course and the skills you’ve gained, without even realizing it.
In reality, the questions and complaints mentioned above are all too frequently tacit, and it may be that much more difficult to bring these issues to a point of real discussion. Sometimes these complaints only show up on instructors’ end-of-term evaluations. There are certainly more useful responses for individual students in individual situations than those offered here.

AFTERWORD

This work is dedicated to the study of the ring of arithmetic functions and its connections with the ring of symmetric polynomials. I began the study in the early 90’s when I was concerned with some properties of the Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials inspired by a seminal book of Gioia. Later, Dr. Tudose helped expand my research and we made important connections with the combinatorial algebra, via symmetric polynomials.
Later she investigated the differential operators and the convolution ring and we also studied this in all its aspects. These papers she collected in this book, represents an important and original contribution in algebra, number theory and algebraic combinatorics.
