About this title

Synopsis

This book is a systematic introduction to analytic methods in number theory, and assumes as a prerequisite only what is taught in a standard undergraduate course. The author aids readers by including a section of bibliographic notes and detailed exercises at the end of each chapter. Tenenbaum has emphasized methods rather than results, so readers should be able to tackle more advanced material than is included here. Moreover, he covers developments on many new and unpublished topics, such as: the Selberg-Delange method; a version of the Ikehara-Ingham Tauberian theorem; and a detailed exposition of the arithmetical use of the saddle-point method.

Book Description

This is a self-contained introduction to analytic methods in number theory, assuming on the part of the reader only what is typically learned in a standard undergraduate degree course. It offers to students and those beginning research a systematic and consistent account of the subject but will also be a convenient resource and reference for more experienced mathematicians. These aspects are aided by the inclusion at the end of each chapter a section of bibliographic notes and detailed exercises.
