  • Pseudo-reductive Groups

    Series Book 26 - New Mathematical Monographs
    Pseudo-reductive groups arise naturally in the study of general smooth linear algebraic groups over non-perfect fields and have many important applications. This monograph provides a comprehensive treatment of the theory of pseudo-reductive groups and gives their classification in a usable form. In this second edition there is new material on relative root systems and Tits systems for general ... Read more

  • Basic Category Theory

    by Tom Leinster ...
    Series Book 143 - Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics
    At the heart of this short introduction to category theory is the idea of a universal property, important throughout mathematics. After an introductory chapter giving the basic definitions, separate chapters explain three ways of expressing universal properties: via adjoint functors, representable functors, and limits. A final chapter ties all three together. The book is suitable for use in ... Read more

  • Closing the Gap

    The Quest to Understand Prime Numbers

    by Vicky Neale ...
    In 2013, a little known mathematician in his late 50s stunned the mathematical community with a breakthrough on an age-old problem about prime numbers. Since then, there has been further dramatic progress on the problem, thanks to the efforts of a large-scale online collaborative effort of a type that would have been unthinkable in mathematics a couple of decades ago, and the insight and ...

  • Galois' Theory Of Algebraic Equations (Second Edition)

    The book gives a detailed account of the development of the theory of algebraic equations, from its origins in ancient times to its completion by Galois in the nineteenth century. The appropriate parts of works by Cardano, Lagrange, Vandermonde, Gauss, Abel, and Galois are reviewed and placed in their historical perspective, with the aim of conveying to the reader a sense of the way in which the ...

  • Classical Groups, Derangements and Primes

    Series Book 25 - Australian Mathematical Society Lecture Series
    A classical theorem of Jordan states that every finite transitive permutation group contains a derangement. This existence result has interesting and unexpected applications in many areas of mathematics, including graph theory, number theory and topology. Various generalisations have been studied in more recent years, with a particular focus on the existence of derangements with special properties ... Read more

  • Sheaves and Functions Modulo p

    Lectures on the Woods Hole Trace Formula

    by Lenny Taelman ...
    Series Book 429 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    The Woods Hole trace formula is a Lefschetz fixed-point theorem for coherent cohomology on algebraic varieties. It leads to a version of the sheaves-functions dictionary of Deligne, relating characteristic-p-valued functions on the rational points of varieties over finite fields to coherent modules equipped with a Frobenius structure. This book begins with a short introduction to the homological ... Read more

  • The Bloch–Kato Conjecture for the Riemann Zeta Function

    Series Book 418 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    There are still many arithmetic mysteries surrounding the values of the Riemann zeta function at the odd positive integers greater than one. For example, the matter of their irrationality, let alone transcendence, remains largely unknown. However, by extending ideas of Garland, Borel proved that these values are related to the higher K-theory of the ring of integers. Shortly afterwards, Bloch and ... Read more
