Produktbeschreibung
For the past several decades the theory of automorphic forms has become a major focal point of development in number theory and algebraic geometry, with applications in many diverse areas, including combinatorics and mathematical physics. The twelve chapters of this monograph present a broad, user-friendly introduction to the Langlands program, that is, the theory of automorphic forms and its connection with the theory of L-functions and other fields of mathematics.

Covered are a variety of areas in number theory from the classical zeta function up to the Langlands program. The exposition is sytematic, with each chapter focusing on a particular topic devoted to special cases of the program, and accessible to graduate students and researchers in the field.

Rezensionen
From the reviews:

"The six chapters of this monograph give a broad, user-friendly introduction to the Langlands program, that is, the theory of automorphic forms and its connection with the theory of L-functions and other fields of mathematics. First-year graduate students and researchers will benefit from this beautiful text."

--Zentralblatt Math

". . . the present volume constitutes the most readable entree into the subject to date, suitable both for serious reading and for browsing, and should attract a new generation to this exciting subject. . . . Recommended."

--CHOICE

"I suspect this book will find its way into the hands of many graduate students. Perhaps it will also motivate a few of them to learn more, get involved, and make their own contributions." (MAA REVIEWS)
