Description
Birkhauser An Introduction to the Langlands Program 2003 Edition by Joseph Bernstein, Stephen Gelbart, S.S. Kudla, E. Kowalski
This book presents a broad, user-friendly introduction to the Langlands program, that is, the theory of automorphic forms and its connection with the theory of L-functions and other fields of mathematics. Each of the twelve chapters focuses on a particular topic devoted to special cases of the program. The book is suitable for graduate students and researchers. Table of contents : - Preface * E.
