9711159 Andrews This award supports a international conference entitled Topics in Number Theory , to be held at Pennsylvania State University, July 30-August 3, 1997. The object is to bring together many researchers whose works represent current trends in number theory. In particular, special emphasis will be on those topics involving substantial interplay between combinatorics, analytic number theory, and arithmetic geometry. This includes works related to the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem , and conjectures concerning special values of L-functions. This research falls into the general mathematical field of Number Theory. Number Theory has its historical roots in the study of whole numbers, addressing such questions as those dealing with the divisibility of one whole number by another. It is among the oldest branches of mathematics and was pursued for many centuries for purely aesthetic reasons. However, within the last half century it has become an indispensable tool with diverse applications in areas such as data transmissions and processing, and communication systems.

9711159 Andrews 该奖项支持将于 1997 年 7 月 30 日至 8 月 3 日在宾夕法尼亚州立大学举行的题为“数论主题”的国际会议。其目的是将许多研究人员聚集在一起，他们的作品代表了数论的当前趋势。特别强调的是那些涉及组合学、解析数论和算术几何之间相互作用的主题。其中包括与费马大定理证明相关的工作，以及有关 L 函数特殊值的猜想。 这项研究属于数论的一般数学领域。数论的历史根源在于对整数的研究，解决诸如一个整数能否被另一个整数整除等问题。它是数学最古老的分支之一，几个世纪以来纯粹出于美学原因而被人们所追求。然而，在过去的半个世纪里，它已成为一种不可或缺的工具，在数据传输和处理、通信系统等领域有着广泛的应用。
