L-functions associated to automorphic forms encode all classical number theoretic information. They are akin to elementary particles in physics. This 2006 book provides an entirely self-contained introduction to the theory of L-functions in a style accessible to graduate students with a basic knowledge of classical analysis, complex variable theory, and algebra. Also within the...(展开全部)

This graduate-level textbook provides an elementary exposition of the theory of automorphic representations and L-functions for the general linear group in an adelic setting. Definitions are kept to a minimum and repeated when reintroduced so that the book is accessible from any entry point, and with no prior knowledge of representation theory. The book includes concrete exampl...(展开全部)

Part 2 contains sections on Automorphic representations and L-functions, Arithmetical algebraic geometry and L-functions

The theory of automorphic forms is playing increasingly important roles in several branches of mathematics, even in physics, and is almost ubiquitous in number theory. This book introduces the reader to the subject and in particular to elliptic modular forms with emphasis on their number-theoretical aspects. After two chapters geared toward elementary levels, there follows a de...(展开全部)

The theory of automorphic forms has seen dramatic developments in recent years. In particular, important instances of Langlands functoriality have been established. This volume presents three weeks of lectures from the IAS/Park City Mathematics Institute Summer School on automorphic forms and their applications. It addresses some of the general aspects of automorphic forms, as ...(展开全部)

Intermediate in level between an advanced textbook and a monograph, this book covers both the classical and representation theoretic views of automorphic forms in a style which is accessible to graduate students entering the field. The treatment is based on complete proofs, which reveal the uniqueness principles underlying the basic constructions. The book features extensive fo...(展开全部)

This volume uses a unified approach to representation theory and automorphic forms. It collects papers, written by leading mathematicians, that track recent progress in the expanding fields of representation theory and automorphic forms and their association with number theory and differential geometry. Topics include: Automorphic forms and distributions, modular forms, visible...(展开全部)
