It presents the first unified account of the four major areas of application where number theory plays a fundamental role, namely cryptography, coding theory, quasi-Monte Carlo methods, and pseudorandom number generation, allowing the authors to delineate the manifold links and interrelations between these areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNumber theory, which Carl-Friedrich Gauss famously dubbed the queen of mathematics, has always been considered a very beautiful field of mathematics, producing lovely results and elegant proofs. While only very few real-life applications were known in the past, today number theory can be found in everyday life: in supermarket bar code scanners, in our cars' GPS systems, in online banking, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStarting with a brief introductory course on number theory in Chapter 1, which makes the book more accessible for undergraduates, the authors describe the four main application areas in Chapters 2-5 and offer a glimpse of advanced results that are presented without proofs and require more advanced mathematical skills. In the last chapter they review several further applications of number theory, ranging from check-digit systems to quantum computation and the organization of raster-graphics memory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUpper-level undergraduates, graduates and researchers in the field of number theory will find this book to be a valuable resource.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Harald Niederreiter, Arne Winterhof\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3319223208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783319223209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/11\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 442\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.00d","brand":"Harald Niederreiter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44073582788863,"sku":"9783319223209","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_01ca1668-a991-405a-9f12-5bb4356c1b08.jpg?v=1685448678","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/applied-number-theory-harald-niederreiter-9783319223209","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
