From the Back Cover
Many of the important and creative developments in modern mathematics resulted from attempts to solve questions that originate in number theory. The publication of Emil Grosswald’s classic text presents an illuminating introduction to number theory.
Combining the historical developments with the analytical approach, Topics from the Theory of Numbers offers the reader a diverse range of subjects to investigate, including:
* divisibility
* congruences
* the Riemann zeta function
* Diophantine equations and Fermat’s conjecture
* the theory of partitions
Comprehensive in nature, Topics from the Theory of Numbers is an ideal text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students alike.
"In my opinion it is excellent. It is carefully written and represents clearly a work of a scholar who loves and understands his subject. One can only wish more authors would take such pains and would be as good and honest expositors as Grosswald."
― Marc Kac
"This book is designed for use in a first course in number theory at the junior or senior level...The author has certainly planned his book well, chosen material that will be stimulating to its intended audience, and carried the project through in such a way that interest seldom flags."
― Mathematical Reviews (Review of First Edition)
