Opis

This volume presents the proceedings of an international conference held at Seoul National University (Korea). Talks covered developments in diverse areas related to the theory of integral quadratic forms and hermitian forms, local densities, linear relations and congruences of theta series, zeta functions of prehomogeneous vector spaces, lattices with maximal finite matrix groups, globally irreducible lattices, Mordell-Weil lattices, and more. Articles in the volume represent expository lectures by experts on developments in the field. The book offers a comprehensive introduction to the state of knowledge in the arithmetic theory of quadratic forms and provides active directions of research with results.
