For one-semester undergraduate courses in Elementary Number Theory.
A Friendly Introduction to Number Theory, Fourth Edition is
designed to introduce students to the overall themes and
methodology of mathematics through the detailed study of one
particular facet-number theory. Starting with nothing more than
basic high school algebra, students are gradually led to the point
of actively performing mathematical research while getting a
glimpse of current mathematical frontiers. The writing is
appropriate for the undergraduate audience and includes many
numerical examples, which are analyzed for patterns and used to
make conjectures. Emphasis is on the methods used for proving
theorems rather than on specific results.
An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers by G. H. Hardy and E. M.
Wright is found on the reading list of virtually all elementary
number theory courses and is widely regarded as the primary and
classic text in elementary number theory. Developed under the
guidance of D. R. Heath-Brown, this Sixth Edition of An
Introduction to the Theory of Numbers has been extensively revised
and updated to guide today's students through the key milestones
and developments in number theory.
Updates include a chapter by J. H. Silverman on one of the most
important developments in number theory -- modular elliptic curves
and their role in the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem -- a foreword
by A. Wiles, and comprehensively updated end-of-chapter notes
detailing the key developments in number theory. Suggestions for
further reading are also included for the more avid reader.
The text retains the style and clarity of previous editions making
it highly suitable for undergraduates in mathematics from the first
year upwards as well as an essential reference for all number
theorists.
