L-Functions and Arithmetic

This volume will be of lasting value to students and researchers working in this area.

This volume is an outgrowth of the LMS Durham Symposium on L-functions, held in July 1989. The symposium consisted of several short courses, aimed at presenting rigorous but non-technical expositions of the latest research areas, and a number of individual lectures on specific topics.This volume is an outgrowth of the LMS Durham Symposium on L-functions, held in July 1989.
