An Introduction to the Langlands Program, Paperback / softback Book

An Introduction to the Langlands Program Paperback / softback

Edited by Joseph Bernstein, Stephen Gelbart

Paperback / softback

Description

For the past several decades the theory of automorphic forms has become a major focal point of development in number theory and algebraic geometry, with applications in many diverse areas, including combinatorics and mathematical physics.

The twelve chapters of this monograph present a broad, user-friendly introduction to the Langlands program, that is, the theory of automorphic forms and its connection with the theory of L-functions and other fields of mathematics.

Covered are a variety of areas in number theory from the classical zeta function up to the Langlands program.

The exposition is sytematic, with each chapter focusing on a particular topic devoted to special cases of the program, and accessible to graduate students and researchers in the field.
