• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book is an introduction to the theory of elliptic curves, ranging from its most elementary aspects to current research. This manuscript grew out of Tate's Haverford Lectures. For the second edition, the author has written three new chapters and there are also two new appendices which were written by S. Theisen and O. Forster.

Rezensionen

From the reviews of the second edition: "Husemöller's text was and is the great first introduction to the world of elliptic curves ... and a good guide to the current research literature as well. ... this second edition builds on the original in several ways. ... it has certainly gained a good deal of topicality, appeal, power of inspiration, and educational value for a wider public. No doubt, this text will maintain its role as both a useful primer and a passionate invitation to the evergreen theory of elliptic curves and their applications" (Werner Kleinert, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1040, 2004)
