Number Theory

Monumental proceedings (very handsomely produced) of a major international conference. The book contains 74 refereed articles which, apart from a few survey papers of peculiar interest, are mostly research papers (63 in English, 11 in French). The topics covered reflect the full diversity of the current trends and activities in modern number theory: elementary, algebraic and analytic number theory; constructive (computational) number theory; elliptic curves and modular forms; arithmetical geometry; transcendence; quadratic forms; coding theory.
