Description for Algebraic Number Fields (Graduate Studies in Mathematics, V. 7) (2nd ed) GSM/7
Hardcover. Presents main theorems about class fields of algebraic number fields. This book features calculations with quadratic fields that show the use of the norm residue symbol. Series: Graduate Studies in Mathematics. Num Pages: 276 pages. BIC Classification: PBH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 230. Weight in Grams: 704.
The book is directed toward students with a minimal background who want to learn class field theory for number fields. The only prerequisite for reading it is some elementary Galois theory. The first three chapters lay out the necessary background in number fields, such the arithmetic of fields, Dedekind domains, and valuations. The next two chapters discuss class field theory for number fields. The concluding chapter serves as an illustration of the concepts introduced in previous chapters.In particular, some interesting calculations with quadratic fields show the use of the norm residue symbol. For the second edition the author added some ... Read more
