The Theory Of Numbers (1914)

The Theory of Numbers is a comprehensive mathematical text written by Robert D. Carmichael and first published in 1914. The book is an exploration of the fundamental principles of number theory, covering topics such as prime numbers, divisibility, congruences, quadratic residues, and Diophantine equations. Carmichael's approach to the subject is rigorous, with a focus on mathematical proofs and theorems. However, the author also includes numerous examples and exercises throughout the text, making it accessible to both students and professional mathematicians. The book has been widely praised for its clarity and depth, and it remains a classic in the field of number theory. Carmichael's contributions to the subject, including his work on Carmichael numbers and the Carmichael function, are also discussed in the text. Overall, The Theory of Numbers is an essential resource for anyone interested in the study of number theory, and it continues to be a valuable reference for mathematicians today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
