The twelfth problem of Hilbert reminds us, although the reminder should be unnecessary, of the blood relationship of three subjects which have since undergone often separate developments. The first of these, the theory of class fields or of abelian extensions of number fields, attained what was pretty much its final form early in this century. The second, the algebraic theory of elliptic curves and, more generally, of abelian varieties, has been for fifty years a topic of research whose vigor and quality shows as yet no sign of abatement. The third, the theory of automorphic functions, has been slower to mature and is still inextricably entangled with the study of abelian varieties, especially of their moduli.
