内容简介
The general aim of this book is to provide a modern approach
to number theory through a blending of complementary algebraic
and analytic perspectives, emphasizing harmonic analysis on
topological groups. The more particular goal is to cover John
Tate’s visionary thesis, giving virtually all of the necessary
analytic details and topological preliminaries---technical
prerequisites that are often foreign to the typical, more
algebraically inclined number theorist. While most of the existing
treatments of Tate’s thesis are somewhat terse and&nbs..
