Description
Book SynopsisThis book has its origins in the 1996 Durham Symposium on 'Galois representations in arithmetic algebraic geometry'. Included here are expositions of subjects on the interface between algebraic number theory and arithmetic algebraic geometry which have received substantial attention from many of the best known researchers in this field.
