Lecture Notes in Pure and Applied Mathematics #241: Number Theory Arising from Finite Fields

by John Knopfmacher

Lecture Notes in Pure and Applied Mathematics #241: Number Theory Arising from Finite Fields Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Number Theory Arising from Finite Fields: Analytic and Probabilistic Theory offers a discussion of the advances and developments in the field of number theory arising from finite fields. It emphasizes mean-value theorems of multiplicative functions, the theory of additive formulations, and the normal distribution of values from additive functions. The work explores calculations from classical stages to emerging discoveries in alternative abstract prime number theorems.

Book News Annotation:

A reference covering advances and developments in the field, emphasizing abstract prime number theorems, mean-value theorems of multiplicative functions, and the normal distribution of values of additive functions. Because interest in number theory arising from finite fields has steadily increased, the work may be of interest in various areas of pure and applied mathematics and also in computer science and other sciences and technologies. Knopfmacher, who died in 1999, was founder of the Center for Applicable Analysis and Number Theory, Johannesburg, South Africa. Zhang is affiliated with the U. of West Indies, Kingston, Jamaica, and with the U. of Illinois, Urbana.
