Publisher's Synopsis
This invaluable volume collects papers written by many of the world's top experts on L-functions. It not only covers a wide range of topics from algebraic and analytic number theories, automorphic forms, to geometry and mathematical physics, but also treats the theory as a whole.The contributions reflect the latest, most advanced and most important aspects of L-functions. In particular, it contains Hida's lecture notes at the conference and at the Eigenvariety semester in Harvard University and Weng's detailed account of his works on high rank zeta functions and non-abelian L-functions.
