NUMBER THEORY - Duverney Daniel

. .

Résumé :
This textbook presents an elementary introduction to number theory and its different aspects: approximation of real numbers, irrationality and transcendence problems, continued fractions, diophantine equations, quadratic forms, arithmetical functions and algebraic number theory. Clear, concise, and self-contained, the topics are covered in 12 chapters with more than 200 solved exercises. The textbook may be used by undergraduates and graduate students, as well as high school mathematics teachers. More generally, it will be suitable for all those who are interested in number theory, the fascinating branch of mathematics.
