Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted to the properties of integers and integer-valued functions
in the broadest sense. It is one of the oldest sciences. The main subdivisions of number theory are
elementary number theory, analytic number theory, algebraic number theory, Diophantine geometry,
probabilistic number theory, arithmetic combinatorics and computational number theory.
The aim is to give an introduction to algebraic number theory and to cover some of the classical topics, like rings of integers, norm, trace and discriminant, ideals of Dedekind rings, finiteness of the class number, Dirichlet's unit theorem, splitting and ramification, cyclotomic fields, valuations and local fields.

Assessment and permitted materials
