Local Fields
Av J. W. S. Cassels, C. M. Series m. fl.
Häftad, 1986
1156 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The p-adic numbers, the earliest of local fields, were introduced by Hensel some 70 years ago as a natural tool in algebra number theory. Today the use of this and other local fields pervades much of mathematics, yet these simple and natural concepts, which often provide remarkably easy solutions …
