Eigencurve
In number theory, an eigencurve is a rigid analytic curve that parametrizes certain ''p''-adic families of modular form In mathematics, a modular form is a holomorphic function on the complex upper half-plane, \mathcal, that roughly satisfies a functional equation with respect to the group action of the modular group and a growth condition. The theory of modul ...s, and an eigenvariety is a higher-dimensional generalization of this. Eigencurves were introduced by , and the term "eigenvariety" seems to have been introduced around 2001 by . References * * Modular forms {{numtheory-stub ...

Number Theory
Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and arithmetic functions. Number theorists study prime numbers as well as the properties of mathematical objects constructed from integers (for example, rational numbers), or defined as generalizations of the integers (for example, algebraic integers). Integers can be considered either in themselves or as solutions to equations (Diophantine geometry). Questions in number theory can often be understood through the study of Complex analysis, analytical objects, such as the Riemann zeta function, that encode properties of the integers, primes or other number-theoretic objects in some fashion (analytic number theory). One may also study real numbers in relation to rational numbers, as for instance how irrational numbers can be approximated by fractions (Diophantine approximation). Number theory is one of the oldest branches of mathematics alongside geometry. One quirk of number theory is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Rigid Analytic Space
In mathematics, a rigid analytic space is an analogue of a complex analytic space over a nonarchimedean field. Such spaces were introduced by John Tate in 1962, as an outgrowth of his work on uniformizing ''p''-adic elliptic curves with bad reduction using the multiplicative group. In contrast to the classical theory of ''p''-adic analytic manifolds, rigid analytic spaces admit meaningful notions of analytic continuation and connectedness. Definitions The basic rigid analytic object is the ''n''-dimensional unit polydisc, whose ring of functions is the Tate algebra T_n, made of power series in ''n'' variables whose coefficients approach zero in some complete nonarchimedean field ''k''. The Tate algebra is the completion of the polynomial ring in ''n'' variables under the Gauss norm (taking the supremum of coefficients), and the polydisc plays a role analogous to that of affine ''n''-space in algebraic geometry. Points on the polydisc are defined to be maximal ideals in the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

P-adic Number
In number theory, given a prime number , the -adic numbers form an extension of the rational numbers which is distinct from the real numbers, though with some similar properties; -adic numbers can be written in a form similar to (possibly infinite) decimals, but with digits based on a prime number rather than ten, and extending to the left rather than to the right. For example, comparing the expansion of the rational number \tfrac15 in base vs. the -adic expansion, \begin \tfrac15 &= 0.01210121\ldots \ (\text 3) &&= 0\cdot 3^0 + 0\cdot 3^ + 1\cdot 3^ + 2\cdot 3^ + \cdots \\ mu\tfrac15 &= \dots 121012102 \ \ (\text) &&= \cdots + 2\cdot 3^3 + 1 \cdot 3^2 + 0\cdot3^1 + 2 \cdot 3^0. \end Formally, given a prime number , a -adic number can be defined as a series s=\sum_^\infty a_i p^i = a_k p^k + a_ p^ + a_ p^ + \cdots where is an integer (possibly negative), and each a_i is an integer such that 0\le a_i < p. A -adic integer is a -adic number such that < ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

Modular Form
In mathematics, a modular form is a holomorphic function on the complex upper half-plane, \mathcal, that roughly satisfies a functional equation with respect to the group action of the modular group and a growth condition. The theory of modular forms has origins in complex analysis, with important connections with number theory. Modular forms also appear in other areas, such as algebraic topology, sphere packing, and string theory. Modular form theory is a special case of the more general theory of automorphic forms, which are functions defined on Lie groups that transform nicely with respect to the action of certain discrete subgroups, generalizing the example of the modular group \mathrm_2(\mathbb Z) \subset \mathrm_2(\mathbb R). Every modular form is attached to a Galois representation. The term "modular form", as a systematic description, is usually attributed to Erich Hecke. The importance of modular forms across multiple field of mathematics has been humorously re ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

Cambridge University Press
Cambridge University Press was the university press of the University of Cambridge. Granted a letters patent by King Henry VIII in 1534, it was the oldest university press in the world. Cambridge University Press merged with Cambridge Assessment to form Cambridge University Press and Assessment under Queen Elizabeth II's approval in August 2021. With a global sales presence, publishing hubs, and offices in more than 40 countries, it published over 50,000 titles by authors from over 100 countries. Its publications include more than 420 academic journals, monographs, reference works, school and university textbooks, and English language teaching and learning publications. It also published Bibles, runs a bookshop in Cambridge, sells through Amazon, and has a conference venues business in Cambridge at the Pitt Building and the Sir Geoffrey Cass Sports and Social Centre. It also served as the King's Printer. Cambridge University Press, as part of the University of Cambridge, was a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
