This book examines the number-theoretic properties of the real numbers. It collects a variety of new ideas and develops connections between different branches of mathematics. An indispensable compendium of basic results, the text also includes important theorems and open problems. The book begins with the classical results of Borel, Khintchine, and Weyl, and then proceeds to Diophantine approximation, GCD sums, Schmidt's method, and uniform distribution. Other topics include generalizations to higher dimensions and various non-periodic problems (for example, restricting approximation to...

This book seeks to describe the rapid development in recent decades of sieve methods able to detect prime numbers. The subject began with Eratosthenes in antiquity, took on new shape with Legendre's form of the sieve, was substantially reworked by Ivan M. Vinogradov and Yuri V. Linnik, but came into its own with Robert C. Vaughan and important contributions from others, notably Roger Heath-Brown and Henryk Iwaniec. Prime-Detecting Sieves breaks new ground by bringing together several different types of problems that have been tackled with modern sieve methods and by discussing the...
