Automorphic forms and L-functions have long stood at the heart of modern number theory and representation theory, providing a profound link between symmetry, arithmetic, and spectral analysis.

This book presents a treatment of the theory of L-functions developed by means of the theory of Eisenstein series and their Fourier coefficients, a theory which is usually referred to as the Langlands ...

The proof Wiles finally came up with (helped by Richard Taylor) was something Fermat would never have dreamed up. It tackled the theorem indirectly, by means of an enormous bridge that mathematicians ...
