Fermat's Dream
Introduces 'Fermat's Dream', core theories in modern number theory. This book gives developments in elliptic curves, $p$-adic numbers, the $\zeta$-function, and the number fields.
This is the English translation of the original Japanese book. In this volume, 'Fermat's Dream', core theories in modern number theory are introduced. Developments are given in elliptic curves, $p$-adic numbers, the $\zeta$-function, and the number fields. This work presents an elegant perspective on the wonder of numbers. Number Theory 2 on class field theory, and Number Theory 3 on Iwasawa theory and the theory of modular forms, are forthcoming in the series.
