    Contemporary Mathematics
    Volume: 4162006; 284 pp
    MSC: Primary 11; 57

    This volume deals systematically with connections between algebraic number theory and low-dimensional topology. Of particular note are various inspiring interactions between number theory and low-dimensional topology discussed in most papers in this volume. For example, quite interesting are the use of arithmetic methods in knot theory and the use of topological methods in Galois theory. Also, expository papers in both number theory and topology included in the volume can help a wide group of readers to understand both fields as well as the interesting analogies and relations that bring them together.

    Readership

    Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in low-dimensional topology, number theory, and relations between them.
