{"product_id":"algebraic-number-theory-frazer-jarvis-9783319075440","title":"Algebraic Number Theory","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis undergraduate textbook provides an approachable and thorough introduction to the topic of algebraic number theory, taking the reader from unique factorisation in the integers through to the modern-day number field sieve. The first few chapters consider the importance of arithmetic in fields larger than the rational numbers. Whilst some results generalise well, the unique factorisation of the integers in these more general number fields often fail. Algebraic number theory aims to overcome this problem. Most examples are taken from quadratic fields, for which calculations are easy to perform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe middle section considers more general theory and results for number fields, and the book concludes with some topics which are more likely to be suitable for advanced students, namely, the analytic class number formula and the number field sieve. This is the first time that the number field sieve has been considered in a textbook at this level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frazer Jarvis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3319075446\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783319075440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/04\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.65d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2015 pg. 1356","brand":"Frazer Jarvis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43983457976575,"sku":"9783319075440","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8c4d0a68-b5c1-4b2d-9880-3fdbc5cea418.jpg?v=1683266763","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/algebraic-number-theory-frazer-jarvis-9783319075440","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
