Number Theory : An Introduction to Mathematics ; Part A
This book attempts to provide such an understanding of the nature and extent of mathematics. It is a modern introduction to the theory of numbers, emphasizing its connections with other branches of mathematics. This part A, which should be accessible to a first-year undergraduate, deals with elementary number theory.
Introduction to Modern Number Theory: Fundamental Problems, Ideas and Theories
"Introduction to Modern Number Theory" surveys from a unified point of view both the modern state and the trends of continuing development of various branches of number theory. Motivated by elementary problems, the central ideas of modern theories are exposed. Some topics covered include non-Abelian generalizations of class field theory, recursive computability and Diophantine equations, zeta- and L-functions. This substantially revised and expanded new edition contains several new sections, such as Wiles' proof of Fermat's Last Theorem, and relevant techniques coming from a synthesis of various theories. Moreover, the authors have added a part dedicated to arithmetical cohomology and noncommutative geometry, a report on point counts on varieties with many rational points, the recent polynomial time algorithm for primality testing, and some others subjects.
Aritmetica : Un approccio computazionale = Arithmetic : A computational approach
Intended to be a contribution to the algorithmic re-reading of some classic topics of elementary number theory and an invitation to more demanding reading, according to the indications provided by the bibliography annexed to it.
Algorithmic number theory ; 7th International Symposium, ANTS-VII, Berlin, Germany, July 23-28, 2006, Proceedings
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Algorithmic Number Theory Symposium, ANTS 2006, held in Berlin, July 2006. The book presents 37 revised full papers together with 4 invited papers selected for inclusion. The papers are organized in topical sections on algebraic number theory, analytic and elementary number theory, lattices, curves and varieties over fields of characteristic zero, curves over finite fields and applications, and discrete logarithms.
