Description for Modular Forms, a Computational Approach (Graduate Studies in Mathematics)
Hardcover. Covers classical modular forms. This book is suitable to those who wish to use modular forms in applications, such as in the explicit solution of Diophantine equations. Series: Graduate Studies in Mathematics. Num Pages: 268 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 256 x 184 x 21. Weight in Grams: 660.
This marvellous and highly original book fills a significant gap in the extensive literature on classical modular forms. This is not just yet another introductory text to this theory, though it could certainly be used as such in conjunction with more traditional treatments. Its novelty lies in its computational emphasis throughout: Stein not only defines what modular forms are, but shows in illuminating detail how one can compute everything about them in practice. This is illustrated throughout the book with examples from his own (entirely free) software package SAGE, which really bring the subject to life while not detracting in ... Read more
