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.
To mark the World Mathematical Year 2000 an International
Conference on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics in honour of
the legendary Indian Mathematician Srinivasa Ramanuj~ was held at
the centre for Advanced study in Mathematics, Panjab University,
Chandigarh, India during October 2-6, 2000. This volume contains
the proceedings of that conference. In all there were 82
participants including 14 overseas participants from Austria,
France, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Korea, Singapore and the USA. The
conference was inaugurated by Prof. K. N. Pathak, Hon.
Vice-Chancellor, Panjab University, Chandigarh on October 2, 2000.
Prof. Bruce C. Berndt of the University of Illinois, Urbana
Chaimpaign, USA delivered the key note address entitled "The Life,
Notebooks and Mathematical Contributions of Srinivasa Ramanujan".
He described Ramanujan--as one of this century's most influential
Mathematicians. Quoting Mark K. ac, Prof. George E. Andrews of the
Pennsylvania State University, USA, in his message for the
conference, described Ramanujan as a "magical genius". During the
5-day deliberations invited speakers gave talks on various topics
in number theory and discrete mathematics. We mention here a few of
them just as a sampling: * M. Waldschmidt, in his article, provides
a very nice introduction to the topic of multiple poly logarithms
and their special values. * C.
