This is the third Lecture Notes volume to be produced in the
framework of the New York Number Theory Seminar. The papers
contained here are mainly research papers. N
The goal of this research monograph is to derive the analytic
continuation and functional equation of the "L"-functions attached
by R.P. Langlands to automorphic representations of reductive
algebraic groups. The first part of the book (by Piatetski-Shapiro
and Rallis) deals with "L"-functions for the simple classical
groups; the second part (by Gelbart and Piatetski-Shapiro) deals
with non-simple groups of the form "G GL(n)," with "G" a
quasi-split reductive group of split rank "n." The method of proof
is to construct certain explicit zeta-integrals of Rankin-Selberg
type which interpolate the relevant Langlands "L"-functions and can
be analyzed via the theory of Eisenstein series and intertwining
operators. This is the first time such an approach has been applied
to such general classes of groups. The flavor of the local theory
is decidedly representation theoretic, and the work should be of
interest to researchers in group representation theory as well as
number theory.
An international Summer School on: "Modular functions of one
variable and arithmetical applications" took place at RUCA, Antwerp
University, from July 17 to - gust 3, 1972. This book is the first
volume (in a series of four) of the Proceedings of the Summer
School. It includes the basic course given by A. Ogg, and several
other papers with a strong analyt~c flavour. Volume 2 contains the
courses of R. P. Langlands (l-adic rep resentations) and P. Deligne
(modular schemes - representations of GL ) and papers on related
topics. 2 Volume 3 is devoted to p-adic properties of modular forms
and applications to l-adic representations and zeta functions.
Volume 4 collects various material on elliptic curves, includ ing
numerical tables. The School was a NATO Advanced Study Institute,
and the orga nizers want to thank NATO for its major subvention.
Further support, in various forms, was received from IBM Belgium,
the Coca-Cola Co. of Belgium, Rank Xerox Belgium, the Fort Food Co.
of Belgium, and NSF Washington, D.C** We extend our warm est thanks
to all of them, as well as to RUCA and the local staff (not
forgetting hostesses and secretaries!) who did such an excellent
job.

During the academic year 1916-1917 I had the good fortune to be a
student of the great mathematician and distinguished teacher Adolf
Hurwitz, and to attend his lectures on the Theory of Functions at
the Polytechnic Institute of Zurich. After his death in 1919 there
fell into my hands a set of notes on the Theory of numbers, which
he had delivered at the Polytechnic Institute. This set of notes I
revised and gave to Mrs. Ferentinou-Nicolacopoulou with a request
that she read it and make relevant observations. This she did
willingly and effectively. I now take advantage of these few lines
to express to her my warmest thanks. Athens, November 1984 N.
Kritikos About the Authors ADOLF HURWITZ was born in 1859 at
Hildesheim, Germany, where he attended the Gymnasium. He studied
Mathematics at the Munich Technical University and at the
University of Berlin, where he took courses from Kummer,
Weierstrass and Kronecker. Taking his Ph. D. under Felix Klein in
Leipzig in 1880 with a thes i s on modul ar funct ions, he became
Pri vatdozent at Gcitt i ngen in 1882 and became an extraordinary
Professor at the University of Konigsberg, where he became
acquainted with D. Hilbert and H. Minkowski, who remained lifelong
friends. He was at Konigsberg until 1892 when he accepted
Frobenius' chair at the Polytechnic Institute in Z rich (E. T. H. )
where he remained the rest of his 1 i fe.
The theory of arithmetical functions has always been one of the
more active parts of the theory of numbers. The large number of
papers in the bibliography, most of which were written in the last
forty years, attests to its popularity. Most textbooks on the
theory of numbers contain some information on arithmetical
functions, usually results which are classical. My purpose is to
carry the reader beyond the point at which the textbooks abandon
the subject. In each chapter there are some results which can be
described as contemporary, and in some chapters this is true of
almost all the material. This is an introduction to the subject,
not a treatise. It should not be expected that it covers every
topic in the theory of arithmetical functions. The bibliography is
a list of papers related to the topics that are covered, and it is
at least a good approximation to a complete list within the limits
I have set for myself. In the case of some of the topics omitted
from or slighted in the book, I cite expository papers on those
topics.
This is a volume of papers presented at the New York Number Theory
Seminar. Since 1982, the Seminar has been meeting weekly during the
academic year at the Graduate School and University Center of the
City University of New York. This collection of papers covers a
wide area of number theory, particularly modular functions,
algebraic and diophantine geometry, and computational number
theory.

A belian Varieties has been out of print for a while. Since it was
written, the subject has made some great advances, and Mumford's
book giving a scheme theoretic treatment has appeared (D. Mum-
ford, Abelian Varieties, Tata Lecture Notes, Oxford University
Press, London, 1970). However, some topics covered in my book were
not covered in Mumford's; for instance, the construction of the
Picard variety, the Albanese variety, some formulas concern- ing
numerical questions, the reciprocity law for correspondences and
its application to Kummer theory, Chow's theory for the K/k-trace
and image, and others. Several people have told me they still found
a number of sections of my book useful. There- fore I thank
Springer-Verlag for the opportunity to keep the book in print. S.
LANG v FOREWORD Pour des simplifications plus subs tan- tielles, Ie
developpement futur de la geometrie algebrique ne saurait manquer
sans do ute d' en faire apparaitre. It is with considerable
pleasure that we have seen in recent years the simplifications
expected by Weil realize themselves, and it has seemed timely to
incorporate them into a new book. We treat exclusively abelian
varieties, and do not pretend to write a treatise on algebraic
groups. Hence we have summarized in a first chapter all the general
results on algebraic groups that are used in the sequel. They are
all foundational results.
The present book was conceived as an introduction for the user of
universal algebra, rather than a handbook for the specialist, but
when the first edition appeared in 1965, there were practically no
other books entir ly devoted to the subject, whether introductory
or specialized. Today the specialist in the field is well provided
for, but there is still a demand for an introduction to the subject
to suit the user, and this seemed to justify a reissue of the book.
Naturally some changes have had to be made; in particular, I have
corrected all errors that have been brought to my notice. Besides
errors, some obscurities in the text have been removed and the
references brought up to date. I should like to express my thanks
to a number of correspondents for their help, in particular C. G.
d'Ambly, W. Felscher, P. Goralcik, P. J. Higgins, H.-J. Hoehnke, J.
R. Isbell, A. H. Kruse, E. J. Peake, D. Suter, J. S. Wilson. But
lowe a special debt to G. M. Bergman, who has provided me with
extensive comments. particularly on Chapter VII and the
supplementary chapters. I have also con sulted reviews of the first
edition, as well as the Italian and Russian translations."
