    TOPICS IN NUMBER THEORY

    by Minking Eie (National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan)

    This is a first-ever textbook written in English about the theory of modular forms and Jacobi forms of several variables. It contains the classical theory as well as a new theory on Jacobi forms over Cayley numbers developed by the author from 1990 to 2000. Applications to the classical Euler sums are of special interest to those who are eager to evaluate double Euler sums or more general multiple zeta values. The celebrated sum formula proved by Granville in 1997 is given in a more general form here.

    Readership: Researchers, postgraduate and graduate students in number theory.
     
    “This book is really quite unusual among works in analytic number theory since it provides a rather quick line of ascent to something not only pretty exotic and exciting but also absent from the usual repertoire of a practitioner of the art … Topics in Number Theory is a very interesting book indeed.” Read the full review here.
