Includes up-to-date material on recent developments and topics of significant interest, such as elliptic functions and the new primality test Selects material from both the algebraic and analytic disciplines, presenting several different proofs of a single result to illustrate the differing viewpoints and give good insight
The theory of elliptic curves involves a blend of algebra, geometry, analysis, and number theory. This book stresses this interplay as it develops the basic theory, providing an opportunity for readers to appreciate the unity of modern mathematics. The book’s accessibility, the informal writing style, and a wealth of exercises make it an ideal introduction for those interested in learning about Diophantine equations and arithmetic geometry.
In honor of Serge Lang’s vast contribution to mathematics, this memorial volume presents articles by prominent mathematicians. Reflecting the breadth of Lang's own interests and accomplishments, these essays span the field of Number Theory, Analysis and Geometry.
This volume contains the refereed proceedings of the Workshop on Cryptography and Computational Number Theory, CCNT'99, which has been held in Singapore during the week of November 22-26, 1999. The workshop was organized by the Centre for Systems Security of the Na tional University of Singapore. We gratefully acknowledge the financial support from the Singapore National Science and Technology Board under the grant num ber RP960668/M. The idea for this workshop grew out of the recognition of the recent, rapid development in various areas of cryptography and computational number the ory. The event followed the concept of the research programs at such well-known research institutions as the Ne...
The book explores a range of mathematical topics essential for application in engineering and applied sciences. It explores both the theoretical and practical aspects, providing a comprehensive foundation for the development of robust theories applicable to engineering and applied sciences. Mathematical Analysis for Engineering and Applied Sciences: Foundational and Fundamental Aspects discusses the essential mathematical principles that underpin the fields of applied science and engineering. This comprehensive book explores a blend of pure and applied mathematics, demonstrating how mathematical tools and techniques can be utilized to create a wide range of models for practical applications in these disciplines. It addresses the challenges of handling complex phenomena and provides algorithms, methods, and logical concepts that are invaluable for bioengineering, cryptosystems, surface modeling, and various other engineering applications. Individual researchers, educators, students, and department libraries will find this book of interest.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Algorithmic Number Theory Symposium, ANTS-IV, held in Leiden, The Netherlands, in July 2000. The book presents 36 contributed papers which have gone through a thorough round of reviewing, selection and revision. Also included are 4 invited survey papers. Among the topics addressed are gcd algorithms, primality, factoring, sieve methods, cryptography, linear algebra, lattices, algebraic number fields, class groups and fields, elliptic curves, polynomials, function fields, and power sums.
The MAA was founded in 1915 to serve as a home for The American Mathematical Monthly. The mission of the Association-to advance mathematics, especially at the collegiate level-has, however, always been larger than merely publishing world-class mathematical exposition. MAA members have explored more than just mathematics; we have, as this volume tries to make evident, investigated mathematical connections to pedagogy, history, the arts, technology, literature, every field of intellectual endeavor. Essays, all commissioned for this volume, include exposition by Bob Devaney, Robin Wilson, and Frank Morgan; history from Karen Parshall, Della Dumbaugh, and Bill Dunham; pedagogical discussion from...
The articles in this volume are expanded versions of lectures delivered at the Graduate Summer School and at the Mentoring Program for Women in Mathematics held at the Institute for Advanced Study/Park City Mathematics Institute. The theme of the program was arithmetic algebraic geometry. The choice of lecture topics was heavily influenced by the recent spectacular work of Wiles on modular elliptic curves and Fermat's Last Theorem. The main emphasis of the articles in the volume is on elliptic curves, Galois representations, and modular forms. One lecture series offers an introduction to these objects. The others discuss selected recent results, current research, and open problems and conjectures. The book would be a suitable text for an advanced graduate topics course in arithmetic algebraic geometry.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation, ISAAC 2004, held in Hong Kong, China in December 2004. The 76 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 226 submissions. Among the topics addressed are computational geometry, graph computations, computational combinatorics, combinatorial optimization, computational complexity, scheduling, distributed algorithms, parallel algorithms, data structures, network optimization, randomized algorithms, and computational mathematics more generally.
