This is the first volume of a projected series of two or three collections of mainly expository articles on the arithmetic theory of automorphic forms. The books are intended primarily for two groups of readers. The first group is interested in the structure of automorphic forms on reductive groups over number fields, and specifically in qualitative information about the multiplicities of automorphic representations. The second group is interested in the problem of classifying l-adic representations of Galois groups of number fields. Langlands' conjectures elaborate on the notion that these...
