Algebraic number theory is the study of the properties of solutions of polynomial equations with integral coefficients; Starting with concrete problems, we then introduce more general notions like algebraic number fields, algebraic integers, units, ideal c ...
Algebraic K-theory, which to any ring R associates a sequence of groups, can be viewed as a theory of linear algebra over an arbitrary ring. We will study in detail the first two of these groups and some of their applications to other areas of mathematics. ...
This is an introductory course to combinatorial number theory. The main objective of this course is to learn how to use combinatorial, topological, and analytic methods to solve problems in number theory. ...
This course is an introduction to intersection theory on algebraic varieties.An important aim of the course is to develop geometric intuition while using the language of schemes developed in the basic algebraic geometry course, thus building a solid foun ...
This course is an introduction to the theory of Riemann surfaces. Riemann surfaces naturally appear is mathematics in many different ways: as a result of analytic continuation, as quotients of complex domains under discontinuous group actions, as algebraic ...
P-adic numbers are a number theoretic analogue of the real numbers, which interpolate between arithmetics, analysis and geometry. In this course we study their basic properties and give various applications, notably we will prove rationality of the Weil Ze ...
In this course we will describe in numerous examples how methods from l-adic cohomology as developed by Grothendieck, Deligne and Katz can interact with methods from analytic number theory (prime numbers, modular forms etc...). ...
This course is a modern exposition of "Duke's Theorems" which describe the distribution of representations of large integers by a fixed ternary quadratic form. It will be the occasion to introduce the students to the adelic language, the theory of automorp ...
