While its roots reach back to the third century, diophantine analysis continues to be an extremely active and powerful area of number theory. Many diophantine problems have simple formulations, they can be extremely difficult to attack, and many open problems and conjectures remain. Diophantine Analysis examines the theory of diophantine approximations and the theory of diophantine equations, with emphasis on interactions between these subjects. Beginning with the basic principles, the author develops his treatment around the theory of continued fractions and examines the classic theory, including some of its applications. He also explores modern topics rarely addressed in other texts, including the abc conjecture, the polynomial Pell equation, and the irrationality of the zeta function and touches on topics and applications related to discrete mathematics, such as factoring methods for large integers.Setting the stage for tackling the field's many open problems and conjectures, Diophantine Analysis is an ideal introduction to the fundamentals of this venerable but still dynamic field. A detailed appendix supplies the necessary background material, more than 200 exercises reinforce the concepts, and engaging historical notes bring the subject to life.

These notes present recent results in the value-distribution theory of L-functions with emphasis on the phenomenon of universality. Universality has a strong impact on the zero-distribution: Riemann's hypothesis is true only if the Riemann zeta-function can approximate itself uniformly. The text proves universality for polynomial Euler products. The authors? approach follows mainly Bagchi's probabilistic method. Discussion touches on related topics: almost periodicity, density estimates, Nevanlinna theory, and functional independence.

Diese elementare Zahlentheorie baut in faszinierender Weise eine Brücke zwischen Schul- und Hochschulmathematik. Ausgehend von dem unverzichtbaren Rüstzeug der Mathematik, dem mathematischen Argumentieren und Beweisen, werden spannende und einfach verständliche Fragen zu Primzahlen und weiteren Typen von Zahlen behandelt und ihre Umsetzung in Kryptographie und ISBN-Codes beschrieben. Höhepunkte des Buches sind der Beweis der Fermatschen Vermutung für den Spezialfall n=4, und Konstruktionsprobleme mit Zirkel und Lineal.Ausführliche und unterhaltsame Erklärungen, geschichtliche Hintergründe und Ausblicke auf weiterführende Mathematik wie der linearen Algebra, Analysis und Geometrie bereiten mühelos den Weg für eine tiefere Beschäftigung mit der Mathematik. Viele Übungsaufgaben  mit teilweise vollständigen Lösungen sowie 100 Abbildungen runden die Darstellung ab.
