Computational Aspects of Modular Forms and Galois Representations : : How One Can Compute in Polynomial Time the Value of Ramanujan's Tau at a Prime (AM-176) / / ed. by Bas Edixhoven, Jean-Marc Couveignes.

Modular forms are tremendously important in various areas of mathematics, from number theory and algebraic geometry to combinatorics and lattices. Their Fourier coefficients, with Ramanujan's tau-function as a typical example, have deep arithmetic significance. Prior to this book, the fastest k...
