Book Synopsis Arithmetic and Analytic Theories of Quadratic Forms and Clifford Groups by : Gorō Shimura
Download or read book Arithmetic and Analytic Theories of Quadratic Forms and Clifford Groups written by Gorō Shimura and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2004 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two main themes of the book are (1) quadratic Diophantine equations; (2) Euler products and Eisenstein series on orthogonal groups and Clifford groups. Whereas the latest chapters of the book contain new results, a substantial portion of it is devoted to expository material related to these themes, such as Witt's theorem and the Hasse principle on quadratic forms, algebraic theory of Clifford algebras, spin groups, and spin representations. The starting point of the first main theme is the result of Gauss that the number of primitive representations of an integer as the sum of three squares is essentially the class number of primitive binary quadratic forms. A generalization of this fact for arbitrary quadratic forms over algebraic number fields, as well as various applications are presented. As for the second theme, the existence of the meromorphic continuation of an Euler product associated with a Hecke eigenform on a Clifford or an orthogonal group is proved. The same is done for an Eisenstein series on such a group. The book is practically self-contained, except that familiarity with algebraic number theory is assumed and several standard facts are stated without detailed proof, but with precise references.

Book Synopsis The Arithmetic Theory of Quadratic Forms by : Burton W Jones
Download or read book The Arithmetic Theory of Quadratic Forms written by Burton W Jones and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1950-12-31 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents the central ideas of the arithmetic theory of quadratic forms in self-contained form, assuming only knowledge of the fundamentals of matric theory and the theory of numbers. Pertinent concepts of p -adic numbers and quadratic ideals are introduced. It would have been possible to avoid these concepts, but the theory gains elegance as well as breadth by the introduction of such relationships. Some results, and many of the methods, are here presented for the first time. The development begins with the classical theory in the field of reals from the point of view of representation theory; for in these terms, many of the later objectives and methods may be revealed. The successive chapters gradually narrow the fields and rings until one has the tools at hand to deal with the classical problems in the ring of rational integers. The analytic theory of quadratic forms is not dealt with because of the delicate analysis involved. However, some of the more important results are stated and references are given.
Book Synopsis Quadratic and Hermitian Forms by : W. Scharlau
Download or read book Quadratic and Hermitian Forms written by W. Scharlau and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-12-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a long time - at least from Fermat to Minkowski - the theory of quadratic forms was a part of number theory. Much of the best work of the great number theorists of the eighteenth and nineteenth century was concerned with problems about quadratic forms. On the basis of their work, Minkowski, Siegel, Hasse, Eichler and many others crea ted the impressive "arithmetic" theory of quadratic forms, which has been the object of the well-known books by Bachmann (1898/1923), Eichler (1952), and O'Meara (1963). Parallel to this development the ideas of abstract algebra and abstract linear algebra introduced by Dedekind, Frobenius, E. Noether and Artin led to today's structural mathematics with its emphasis on classification problems and general structure theorems. On the basis of both - the number theory of quadratic forms and the ideas of modern algebra - Witt opened, in 1937, a new chapter in the theory of quadratic forms. His most fruitful idea was to consider not single "individual" quadratic forms but rather the entity of all forms over a fixed ground field and to construct from this an algebra ic object. This object - the Witt ring - then became the principal object of the entire theory. Thirty years later Pfister demonstrated the significance of this approach by his celebrated structure theorems.
Book Synopsis Quadratic and Higher Degree Forms by : Krishnaswami Alladi
Download or read book Quadratic and Higher Degree Forms written by Krishnaswami Alladi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-08-13 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, the areas of quadratic and higher degree forms have witnessed dramatic advances. This volume is an outgrowth of three seminal conferences on these topics held in 2009, two at the University of Florida and one at the Arizona Winter School. The volume also includes papers from the two focused weeks on quadratic forms and integral lattices at the University of Florida in 2010.Topics discussed include the links between quadratic forms and automorphic forms, representation of integers and forms by quadratic forms, connections between quadratic forms and lattices, and algorithms for quaternion algebras and quadratic forms. The book will be of interest to graduate students and mathematicians wishing to study quadratic and higher degree forms, as well as to established researchers in these areas. Quadratic and Higher Degree Forms contains research and semi-expository papers that stem from the presentations at conferences at the University of Florida as well as survey lectures on quadratic forms based on the instructional workshop for graduate students held at the Arizona Winter School. The survey papers in the volume provide an excellent introduction to various aspects of the theory of quadratic forms starting from the basic concepts and provide a glimpse of some of the exciting questions currently being investigated. The research and expository papers present the latest advances on quadratic and higher degree forms and their connections with various branches of mathematics.
Book Synopsis Binary Quadratic Forms by : Duncan A. Buell
Download or read book Binary Quadratic Forms written by Duncan A. Buell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first coherent exposition of the theory of binary quadratic forms was given by Gauss in the Disqnisitiones Arithmeticae. During the nine teenth century, as the theory of ideals and the rudiments of algebraic number theory were developed, it became clear that this theory of bi nary quadratic forms, so elementary and computationally explicit, was indeed just a special case of a much more elega,nt and abstract theory which, unfortunately, is not computationally explicit. In recent years the original theory has been laid aside. Gauss's proofs, which involved brute force computations that can be done in what is essentially a two dimensional vector space, have been dropped in favor of n-dimensional arguments which prove the general theorems of algebraic number the ory. In consequence, this elegant, yet pleasantly simple, theory has been neglected even as some of its results have become extremely useful in certain computations. I find this neglect unfortunate, because binary quadratic forms have two distinct attractions. First, the subject involves explicit computa tion and many of the computer programs can be quite simple. The use of computers in experimenting with examples is both meaningful and enjoyable; one can actually discover interesting results by com puting examples, noticing patterns in the "data," and then proving that the patterns result from the conclusion of some provable theorem.

Book Synopsis Arithmetic of Quadratic Forms by : Goro Shimura
Download or read book Arithmetic of Quadratic Forms written by Goro Shimura and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-08-09 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is divided into two parts. The first part is preliminary and consists of algebraic number theory and the theory of semisimple algebras. There are two principal topics: classification of quadratic forms and quadratic Diophantine equations. The second topic is a new framework which contains the investigation of Gauss on the sums of three squares as a special case. To make the book concise, the author proves some basic theorems in number theory only in some special cases. However, the book is self-contained when the base field is the rational number field, and the main theorems are stated with an arbitrary number field as the base field. So the reader familiar with class field theory will be able to learn the arithmetic theory of quadratic forms with no further references.

Download or read book Quadratic Forms written by Michael Barot and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-28 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents combinatorial and numerical issues on integral quadratic forms as originally obtained in the context of representation theory of algebras and derived categories. Some of these beautiful results remain practically unknown to students and scholars, and are scattered in papers written between 1970 and the present day. Besides the many classical results, the book also encompasses a few new results and generalizations. The material presented will appeal to a wide group of researchers (in representation theory of algebras, Lie theory, number theory and graph theory) and, due to its accessible nature and the many exercises provided, also to undergraduate and graduate students with a solid foundation in linear algebra and some familiarity on graph theory.
