Description

Bringing the material up to date to reflect modern applications, this second edition has been completely rewritten and reorganized to incorporate a new style, methodology, and presentation. It offers a more complete and involved treatment of Galois theory, a more comprehensive section on Pollard’s cubic factoring algorithm, and more detailed explanations of proofs to provide a sound understanding of challenging material. This edition also studies binary quadratic forms and compares the ideal and form class groups. The text includes convenient cross-referencing, a comprehensive index, and numerous exercises and applications.
