Excursions in Number Theory, Algebra, and Analysis
Langbeschreibung
This textbook originates from a course taught by the late Ken Ireland in 1972. Designed to explore the theoretical underpinnings of undergraduate mathematics, the course focused on interrelationships and hands-on experience. Readers of this textbook will be taken on a modern rendering of Ireland's path of discovery, consisting of excursions into number theory, algebra, and analysis. Replete with surprising connections, deep insights, and brilliantly curated invitations to try problems at just the right moment, this journey weaves a rich body of knowledge that is ideal for those going on to study or teach mathematics.

Kenneth Ireland [1937-1991] was Professor of Mathematics at the University of New Brunswick, Canada. Before UNB, he held positions at Johns Hopkins, Brandeis, Brown, Bowdoin, and a visiting membership in the Institute for Advanced Study. Known for his broad interests and active involvement in all areas of departmental life, he had a lasting impact on generations of students as a teacher and mentor. His widely acclaimed book with Michael Rosen, A Classical Introduction to Modern Number Theory, appears in the series Graduate Texts in Mathematics.
