A Thorough Presentation of the Theory of Algebraic Numbers and Functions Built on a presentation of algebraic foundations Topics in (algebraic) number theory are presented in a systematic, unified and often in a original manner.  Meer

The author offers a thorough presentation of the classical theory of algebraic numbers and algebraic functions which both in its conception and in many details differs from the current literature on the subject.  Meer

From its origins in algebraic number theory, the theory of non-unique factorizations has emerged as an independent branch of algebra and number theory.  Meer

Quadratic Irrationals: An Introduction to Classical Number Theory gives a unified treatment of the classical theory of quadratic irrationals. Presenting the material in a modern and elementary algebraic setting, the author focuses on equivalence, continued fractions, quadratic characters, quadratic orders, binary quadratic forms, and class groups.  Meer

Through a set of related yet distinct texts, the author offers a thorough presentation of the classical theory of algebraic numbers and algebraic functions: Ideal- and valuation-theoretic aspects, L functions and class field theory, with a presentation of algebraic foundations which are usually undersized in standard algebra courses.  Meer

Research on number theory has produced a wealth of interesting and beautiful results yet topics are strewn throughout the literature, the notation is far from being standardized, and a unifying approach to the different aspects is lacking.  Meer

Through a set of related yet distinct texts, the author offers a thorough presentation of the classical theory of algebraic numbers and algebraic functions: Ideal- and valuation-theoretic aspects, L functions and class field theory, together with a presentation of algebraic foundations which are usually undersized in standard algebra courses.  Meer
