Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Theory of Automorphic Functions Owing largely to the researches of Poincare and Klein the domain of Automorphic Functions has expanded enormously during the last thirty-five years; and the ramifications of the subject have extended into many and diverse fields. This has caused embarrassment in the selection of materials for a book of modest dimensions, and has necessitated a brief treatment, or in some cases the exclusion, of many important and attractive subjects. The aim throughout has been to present in as thorough a manner as possible the concepts and theorems on which the theory is founded, and to describe in less detail certain of its important developments. The present tract had its origin in a series of lectures on Automorphic Functions given to the Mathematical Research Class of the University of Edinburgh during the Spring Term of 1915. I wish to express a grateful acknowledgment of my indebtedness to Professor Whittaker, who has read the manuscript during the course of its preparation, and has made many valuable suggestions; and to Mr Herbert Bell, who has assisted in the preparation of the Bibliography.

Book excerpt: The theory of automorphic forms is playing increasingly important roles in several branches of mathematics, even in physics, and is almost ubiquitous in number theory. This book introduces the reader to the subject and in particular to elliptic modular forms with emphasis on their number-theoretical aspects. After two chapters geared toward elementary levels, there follows a detailed treatment of the theory of Hecke operators, which associate zeta functions to modular forms. At a more advanced level, complex multiplication of elliptic curves and abelian varieties is discussed. The main question is the construction of abelian extensions of certain algebraic number fields, which is traditionally called "Hilbert's twelfth problem." Another advanced topic is the determination of the zeta function of an algebraic curve uniformized by modular functions, which supplies an indispensable background for the recent proof of Fermat's last theorem by Wiles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When published in 1929, Ford's book was the first treatise in English on automorphic functions. By this time the field was already fifty years old, as marked from the time of Poincare's early Acta papers that essentially created the subject. The work of Koebe and Poincare on uniformization appeared in 1907. In the seventy years since its first publication, Ford's Automorphic Functions has become a classic. His approach to automorphic functions is primarily through the theory of analytic functions. He begins with a review of the theory of groups of linear transformations, especially Fuchsian groups. He covers the classical elliptic modular functions, as examples of non-elementary automorphic functions and Poincare theta series. Ford includes an extended discussion of conformal mappings from the point of view of functions, which prepares the way for his treatment of uniformization. The final chapter illustrates the connections between automorphic functions and differential equations with regular singular points, such as the hypergeometric equation.

Book excerpt: This is the English translation of a volume originally published only in Russian and now out of print. The book was written by Jacques Hadamard on the work of Poincare. Poincare's creation of a theory of automorphic functions in the early 1880s was one of the most significant mathematical achievements of the nineteenth century. It directly inspired the uniformization theorem, led to a class of functions adequate to solve all linear ordinary differential equations, and focused attention on a large new class of discrete groups. It was the first significant application of non-Euclidean geometry. This unique exposition by Hadamard offers a fascinating and intuitive introduction to the subject of automorphic functions and illuminates its connection to differential equations, a connection not often found in other texts.

The main points are very clearly put; room has even been found for an outline of non-Euclidean geometry, and the expression of co-ordinates of points on an algebraic curve as one-valued functions. There is a bibliography which seems to include most of the books and papers of really first-rate importance; and there is a sufficient number of diagrams. English-speaking students ought now, at any rate, to appreciate Poincaré's wonderful discoveries in this field. -Nature, Vol. 96
