High Primes and Misdemeanours: Lectures in Honour of the 60th Birthday of Hugh Cowie WilliamsHugh C. Williams, A. J. Van Der Poorten, Andreas Stein This volume consists of a selection of papers based on presentations made at the international conference on number theory held in honor of Hugh Williams' sixtieth birthday. The papers address topics in the areas of computational and explicit number theory and its applications. The material is suitable for graduate students and researchers interested in number theory. |
