Number theory and its applications

"The contents of this volume range from readable expository papers in several aspects of number theory intended for general readers (Steinhaus property of planar regions; experiments of computers; Diophantine approximation; number field sieve), to a collection of research papers devoted to specialists, which are of prestigious journal level. Thus the book leads the reader, in many ways, not only to the state of the art of, but also to the rich garden of number theory.". "Audience: Researchers and graduate students interested in recent developments of number theory."--BOOK JACKET.
