Description
Book SynopsisContains papers presented at the conference, 'Computational Perspectives on Number Theory' held at the University of Illinois at Chicago in honor of the retirement of A O L Atkin. This work covers a range of topics, including algebraic number theory, $p$-adic modular forms and modular curves.
