      The subject of these notes is a part of commutative algebra, and is also closely related to certain topics in algebraic number theory and algebraic geometry.

Avramov, Marcel Morales, Marc Chardin, Claudia Polini (editors), Commutative Algebra: Interactions with Algebraic Geometry: International Conference, American Mathematical Society, page 27 ↗,
      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.
  2. (algebra) Any algebra (mathematical structure) in which the multiplication operation is commutative.
    • 1907, James Byrnie Shaw, Synopsis of Linear Associative Algebra, Carnegie Institution of Washington, page 46 ↗,
      Theorem. If the complex of the linearly independent numbers of the form \zeta a - a\zeta be deleted from an algebra, the remaining numbers form a commutative algebra.
