Algebra provides the formal framework to describe mathematical structures such as groups, rings and fields, while number theory investigates the properties of integers and their extensions. At their ...

Algebraic number theory explores the arithmetic of algebraic numbers, emphasising both theoretical structures and computational strategies that enable explicit determination of key invariants. At its ...

“It was just so stunning for someone so young to have done something so revolutionary,” said Weinstein, a 34-year-old number theorist now at Boston University. “It was extremely humbling.” ...
