  • Character Sums with Exponential Functions and their Applicationsby Sergei Konyagin; Igor Shparlinski; B. Bollobas; W. Fulton; A. Katok; F. Kirwan; P. Sarnak

    Cambridge University Press 1999; US$ 62.00

    The theme of this book is the distribution of integer powers modulo a prime number. It provides numerous new links between number theory and computer science as well as other areas of mathematics. Applications include (but are not limited to) complexity theory, random number generation, cryptography, and coding theory. more...

  • Prime Numbersby David Wells

    John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2005; US$ 24.95

    A fascinating journey into the mind-bending world of prime numbers Cicadas of the genus Magicicada appear once every 7, 13, or 17 years. Is it just a coincidence that these are all prime numbers? How do twin primes differ from cousin primes, and what on earth (or in the mind of a mathematician) could be sexy about prime numbers? What did Albert Wilansky find so fascinating about his brother-in-law's phone number? Mathematicians have been asking questions about prime numbers for more than twenty-five centuries, and every answer seems to generate a new rash of questions. In Prime Numbers: The Most Mysterious Figures in Math, you'll meet the world's most gifted mathematicians, from Pythagoras and Euclid to Fermat, Gauss, and Erd?o?s, and you'll... more...

  • An Introduction to Sieve Methods and Their Applicationsby Alina Cojocaru; Ram Murty; J. W Bruce

    Cambridge University Press 2005; US$ 47.00

    This book provides a motivated introduction to sieve theory. Rather than focus on technical details which obscure the beauty of the theory, the authors focus on examples and applications, developing the theory in parallel. Suitable for a senior level undergraduate course or an introductory graduate course in analytic number theory. more...

  • Prime Numbersby Richard Crandall

    Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2005; US$ 74.95

    Prime numbers beckon to the beginner, the basic notion of primality being accessible to a child. This book concentrates on the computational aspects of prime numbers, such as recognizing primes and discovering the fundamental prime factors of a given number. It includes over 100 explicit algorithms cast in detailed pseudocode. more...

  • Multiplicative Number Theory Iby Hugh L. Montgomery; Robert C. Vaughan

    Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 91.00

    Prime numbers are the multiplicative building blocks of natural numbers. Understanding their overall influence and especially their distribution gives rise to central questions in mathematics and physics. The authors bring their extensive and distinguished research expertise to prepare the student for intelligent reading of the more advanced research literature. more...

  • Automorphic Forms and L-Functions for the Group GL(n,R)by Dorian Goldfeld

    Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 104.00

    L-functions associated to automorphic forms encode all classical number theoretic information. They are akin to elementary particles in physics. This book provides an entirely self-contained introduction to the theory of L-functions in a style accessible to graduate students with basic knowledge of classical analysis, complex variable theory, and algebra. more...

  • The Monodromy Groupby Henryk Zoladek

    Springer 2006; US$ 149.00

    Provides information on singularity theory and algebraic geometry; the theory of systems of linear differential equations; the theory of homomorphic foliations; and the connection of monodromy theory with Galois theory of differential equations and algebraic functions. This book underlines the unifying role of the monodromy group. more...

  • Trigonometric Sums in Number Theory and Analysisby Gennady I. Arkhipov; Anatoly A. Karatsuba; Vladimir N. Chubarikov

    Walter de Gruyter, Inc. 2004; US$ 200.00

    The book presents the theory of multiple trigonometric sums constructed by the authors. Following a unified approach, the authors obtain estimates for these sums similar to the classical I. M. Vinogradov's estimates and use them to solve several problems in analytic number theory. They investigate trigonometric integrals, which are often encountered in physics, mathematical statistics, and analysis, and present purely arithmetic results concerning the solvability of equations in integers. more...

  • The Riemann Hypothesisby Peter B. Borwein; S. Choi; B. Rooney; A. Weirathmueller

    Springer 2007; US$ 89.95

    This book presents the Riemann Hypothesis, connected problems, and a taste of the body of theory developed towards its solution. It is targeted at the educated non-expert. Almost all the material is accessible to any senior mathematics student, and much is accessible to anyone with some university mathematics. The appendices include a selection of original papers. This collection is not very large and encompasses only the most important milestones in the evolution of theory connected to the Riemann Hypothesis. The appendices also include some authoritative expository papers. These are the "expert witnessesa whose insight into this field is both invaluable and irreplaceable. more...

  • The Large Sieve and its Applicationsby Emmanuel Kowalski

    Cambridge University Press 2008; US$ 85.00

    Explains new applications of the 'large sieve', an important tool of analytic number theory, presenting potential uses beyond this area. more...
