This volume contains the proceedings of the workshop held at the DIMACS Center of Rutgers University (Piscataway, NJ) on Unusual Applications of Number Theory. Standard applications of number theory are to computer science and cryptology. In this volume, well-known number theorist, Melvyn B. Nathanson, gathers articles from the workshop on other, less standard applications in number theory, as well as topics in number theory with potential applications in science and engineering. The material is suitable for graduate students and researchers interested in number theory and its applications.
This book, based in part on lectures delivered at the 2006 CRM-Clay School on Additive Combinatorics, brings together some of the top researchers in one of the hottest topics in analysis today. This new subject brings together ideas from many different areas to prove some extraordinary results. The book encompasses proceedings from the school, articles on open questions in additive combinatorics, and new research.
This volume marks the 20th anniversary of the New York Number Theory Seminar (NYNTS). Beginning in 1982, the NYNTS has tried to present a broad spectrum of research in number theory and related fields of mathematics, from physics to geometry to combinatorics and computer science. The list of seminar speakers includes not only Fields Medallists and other established researchers, but also many other younger and less well known mathematicians whose theorems are significant and whose work may become the next big thing in number theory.

This basic introduction to number theory is ideal for those with no previous knowledge of the subject. The main topics of divisibility, congruences, and the distribution of prime numbers are covered. Of particular interest is the inclusion of a proof for one of the most famous results in mathematics, the prime number theorem. With many examples and exercises, and only requiring knowledge of a little calculus and algebra, this book will suit individuals with imagination and interest in following a mathematical argument to its conclusion.
