Algebraic, Analytic, and Computational Number Theory and Its Applications

Analytic number theory is a branch of number theory which uses methods from mathematical analysis in order to solve difficult problems about integers. Analytic number theory can be split into two major areas: multiplicative number theory and additive number theory. Bernhard Riemann made some very important contributions to the field of analytic number theory; among others, he investigated the Riemann zeta function, and he established its importance for understanding the distribution of prime num...
