A course in analytic number theory

By: Marius OverholtMaterial type: TextTextSeries: Graduate Studies in Mathematics ; Vol. 160Publication details: Rhode Island: American Mathematical Society , [c2014]Description: 371 pISBN: 9781470437305Subject(s): MathematicsLOC classification: QA 241
Contents:
Chapter 1. Arithmetic functions Chapter 2. Topics on arithmetic functions Chapter 3. Characters and Euler products Chapter 4. The circle method Chapter 5. The method of contour integrals Chapter 6. The prime number theorem Chapter 7. The Siegel-Walfisz theorem Chapter 8. Mainly analysis Chapter 9. Euler products and number fields Chapter 10. Explicit formulas Chapter 11. Supplementary exercises
Summary: This book is an introduction to analytic number theory suitable for beginning graduate students. It covers everything one expects in a first course in this field, such as growth of arithmetic functions, existence of primes in arithmetic progressions, and the Prime Number Theorem. But it also covers more challenging topics that might be used in a second course, such as the Siegel-Walfisz theorem, functional equations of L-functions, and the explicit formula of von Mangoldt. For students with an interest in Diophantine analysis, there is a chapter on the Circle Method and Waring's Problem. Those with an interest in algebraic number theory may find the chapter on the analytic theory of number fields of interest, with proofs of the Dirichlet unit theorem, the analytic class number formula, the functional equation of the Dedekind zeta function, and the Prime Ideal Theorem.---Summary provided by publisher
