# zbMATH — the first resource for mathematics

##### Examples
 Geometry Search for the term Geometry in any field. Queries are case-independent. Funct* Wildcard queries are specified by * (e.g. functions, functorial, etc.). Otherwise the search is exact. "Topological group" Phrases (multi-words) should be set in "straight quotation marks". au: Bourbaki & ti: Algebra Search for author and title. The and-operator & is default and can be omitted. Chebyshev | Tschebyscheff The or-operator | allows to search for Chebyshev or Tschebyscheff. "Quasi* map*" py: 1989 The resulting documents have publication year 1989. so: Eur* J* Mat* Soc* cc: 14 Search for publications in a particular source with a Mathematics Subject Classification code (cc) in 14. "Partial diff* eq*" ! elliptic The not-operator ! eliminates all results containing the word elliptic. dt: b & au: Hilbert The document type is set to books; alternatively: j for journal articles, a for book articles. py: 2000-2015 cc: (94A | 11T) Number ranges are accepted. Terms can be grouped within (parentheses). la: chinese Find documents in a given language. ISO 639-1 language codes can also be used.

Algebraic number theory. 2nd ed. (English) Zbl 0811.11001
Graduate Texts in Mathematics. 110. New York: Springer-Verlag. xiii, 357 p. DM 68.00; öS 530.40; sFr. 68.00 (1994).

[The first ed. (1986) has been reviewed in Zbl 0601.12001.]

Here are the first two sentences of the “Preface for the 2nd edition”: “The principal change in this new edition is a complete rewriting of Chapter XVII on the explicit formulas. Otherwise, I have made a few editions, and a number of corrections.”

For this edition there are two new journal references: (a) J. Jorgenson and S. Lang, “A Parseval formula for functions with an asymptotic expansion at the origin”, Lect. Notes Math. 1564 (1993; Zbl 0788.30003); and (b) N.-P. Skoruppa, “Quick lower bounds for regulators of number fields”, Enseign. Math. 39, 137-141 (1993; Zbl 0803.11060).

There is a very interesting article of S. Lang [“Mordell’s review, Siegel’s letter to Mordell’s diophantine geometry, and 20th century mathematics”, Notices Am. Math. Soc. 42, No. 3, 339-350 (1995)]. It reproduces (and discusses extensively) a letter, highly critical, of Siegel in which this book is mentioned – quite derisively. The article makes a fine case for the approach of this volume.
