by Edwin Weiss (Author), William Ted Martin (Editor), E. H. Spanier (Editor)

Algebraic Number Theory: International Series In Pure And Applied Mathematics is a comprehensive textbook written by Edwin Weiss. The book covers the fundamental concepts of algebraic number theory, an area of mathematics that deals with the properties of algebraic numbers and their extensions. The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a specific topic in algebraic number theory. The first few chapters introduce the basic concepts of number fields, rings of integers, and Dedekind domains. The later chapters delve into more advanced topics such as class field theory, Galois representations, and the Langlands program.Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples and exercises to help readers understand the material. The book also includes historical notes and references to original sources, making it a valuable resource for both students and researchers in the field.Algebraic Number Theory: International Series In Pure And Applied Mathematics is an essential reference for anyone interested in algebraic number theory, and it is widely regarded as one of the most authoritative texts on the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
