Agarwal A. Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics 2002

Textbook in PDF format

This volume contains the proceedings of the International Conference on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics in honour of Srinivasa Ramanujan, held at the Centre for Advanced Study in Mathematics, Panjab University, Chandigarh, India, in October 2000, as a contribution to the International Year of Mathematics. It collects 29 articles written by some of the leading specialists worldwide. Most of the papers provide recent trends, problems and their current states as well as historical backgrounds of their subjects. Some contributions are related to Ramanujan's mathematics, which should stimulate the interest in his work.
