Here, the idea of class field theory, a highlight in algebraic number theory, is first described with many concrete examples. A detailed account of proofs is thoroughly exposited in the final chapter. The authors also explain the local-global method in number theory, including the use of ideles and adeles. Basic properties of zeta and L-functions are established and used to prove the prime number theorem and the Dirichlet theorem on prime numbers in arithmetic progressions. With this book, the reader can enjoy the beauty of numbers and obtain fundamental knowledge of modern number theory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003eThe translation of the first volume was published as Number Theory 1: Fermat’s Dream, Translations of Mathematical Monographs (Iwanami Series in Modern Mathematics), vol. 186, American Mathematical Society, 2000.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orient Blackswan Pvt Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45616471212183,"sku":"9781470437367","price":1326.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781470437367.webp?v=1769294878","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/number-theory-2-9781470437367","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
