Common Inessential Discriminant Divisors: Scenes from the Early History of Algebraic Number Theory

December 04, 2025 01:07 PM
In mathematics, technical difficulties can spark groundbreaking ideas. This book explores one such challenge: a problem that arose in the formative years of algebraic number theory and played a major role in the early development of the field. Through extensively annotated translations of key papers, this book traces how Richard Dedekind, Leopold Kronecker, and Kurt Hensel approached these divisors, using them to justify the need for entirely new mathematical ideas and to demonstrate their power.

Exponential Sums, Hypergeometric Sheaves, and Monodromy Groups

November 04, 2025 09:33 AM
An examination of some of the remarkable connections between group theory and arithmetic algebraic geometry over finite fields. This book is devoted to the determination of the monodromy groups attached to various explicit families of exponential sums, especially those attached to hypergeometric sheaves, arguably the simplest local systems on G_m, and to some simple (in the sense of simple to write down) one-parameter families of one-variable sums.
