Number theory has a wealth of long-standing problems, the study of which over the years has led to major developments in many areas of mathematics. Farkas), representation functions in additive number theory (M. Nathanson), and mock theta functions, ranks, and Maass forms (K. Ono), and elliptic functions (M.

From the 28th of February through the 3rd of March, 2001, the Department of Math ematics of the University of Florida hosted a conference on the many aspects of the field of Ordered Algebraic Structures.

From September 13 to 17 in 1999, the First China-Japan Seminar on Number Theory was held in Beijing, China, which was organized by the Institute of Mathematics, Academia Sinica jointly with Department of Mathematics, Peking University.

This work contains various topics in number theory and provides the reader with an overvierw of current and future researches in the field.

Rankin had broad interests and contributed fundamental papers in a wide variety of areas within number theory, geometry, analysis, and algebra. To commemorate Rankin's life and work, the editors have collected together 25 papers by several eminent mathematicians reflecting Rankin's extensive range of interests within number theory.

This volume contains papers by invited speakers of the symposium "Zeta Functions, Topology and Quantum Physics" held at Kinki U- versity in Osaka, Japan, during the period of March 3-6, 2003.

This book collects survey and research papers on various topics in number theory. Although the topics and descriptive details appear varied, they are unified by two underlying principles: first, readability, and second, a smooth transition from traditional approaches to modern ones.

This volume contains a collection of papers in Analytic and Elementary Number Theory in memory of Professor Paul Erdoes, one of the greatest mathematicians of this century.

The contents of this volume range from expository papers on several aspects of number theory, intended for general readers (Steinhaus property of planar regions; Thus, Number Theory and Its Applications leads the reader in many ways not only to the state of the art of number theory but also to its rich garden.

In reproducing Volume 23 of The Ramanujan Journal in this book form, we have included two papers-one by Hei-Chi Chan and Shaun Cooper, and another by Ole Warnaar-which were intended for Volume 23 of The Ramanujan Journal, but appeared in other issues.

The contents of this volume range from expository papers on several aspects of number theory, intended for general readers (Steinhaus property of planar regions; Thus, Number Theory and Its Applications leads the reader in many ways not only to the state of the art of number theory but also to its rich garden.

In the spirit of Ehrenpreis's contribution to mathematics, the papers in this volume, written by prominent mathematicians, represent the wide breadth of subjects that Ehrenpreis traversed in his career, including partial differential equations, combinatorics, number theory, complex analysis and a bit of applied mathematics.
