    ELEMENTARY THEORY OF NUMBERS

    by C Y Hsiung (Wuhan University, China)

    This book explains clearly and in detail the basic concepts and methods of calculations of the elementary theory of numbers. It consists of 7 chapters illustrated by numerous examples and exercises. Answers together with some hints to the exercises are given at the end of the book. It may be used as a textbook for undergraduate students.
     
    Contents:
    • Theory of Divisibility
    • Congruences
    • Indeterminate Equations
    • Congruences in One Unknown
    • Quadratic Residues and Congruences of Second Degree in One Unkown
    • Primitive Roots and Indices
    • Brief Introduction to Number Theory
     
    Readership: Undergraduate students in mathematics.
     
    “This book provides a nice selection of topics for a short introductory course in elementary number theory. The theorems are basically standard, with standard proofs. There is an abundant collection of exercises, with solutions or hints included.”
    Mathematical Reviews, 1994
     
    “The book exposes the elementary basic theory of numbers and methods of calculations, so that it may be used as a textbook for undergraduate students. There are many examples and exercises in this book, the answers of the exercises can also be found.”
