'The original English version of the book 'Algebraic Groups and Number Theory' by Platonov and Rapinchuk was a go to reference for graduate students and senior researchers alike working in areas of arithmetic and algebraic groups, discrete subgroups of Lie groups, and connections with number theory. The second edition, which will be split into two volumes, and also co-authored with I. Rapinchuk, is a welcome and timely update to the original. The first volume of the second edition, consists of an update to chapters 1-5 of the original with an additional section 4.9 to include new material on the structure of extensions of arithmetic groups. There is no doubt in my mind that this first volume of the second edition will again take on the role of a go to text for those working in an area of huge ongoing interest and importance, and be at the forefront training new generations of mathematicians working in the areas of arithmetic and algebraic groups, discrete subgroups of Lie groups, and connections with number theory.' Alan Reid, Rice University 'The arithmetic theory of algebraic groups is a beautiful area of mathematics: a crossroad of number theory, groups, geometry, representation theory, and more. Not surprisingly it attracted some of the greatest mathematicians of the last few generations. The first edition of the book 'Algebraic Groups and Number Theory' by Vladimir Platonov and Andrei Rapinchuk which came out in the early 90s has quickly become the standard reference of the field. It presents in a clear way several deep topics. The book was one of the reasons the area attracted more researchers and expanded to new directions. This made an updated version much needed. The original authors and Igor Rapinchuk should be thanked by the mathematical community for carrying out this monumental job.' Alex Lubotzky, Hebrew University of JerusalemMore details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
