    CRM Proceedings & Lecture Notes
    Volume: 11993; 174 pp
    MSC: Primary 11; Secondary 22; 33

    This book contains lectures on theta functions written by experts well known for excellence in exposition. The lectures represent the content of four courses given at the Centre de Recherches Mathématiques in Montréal during the academic year 1991–1992, which was devoted to the study of automorphic forms. Aimed at graduate students, the book synthesizes the classical and modern points of view in theta functions, concentrating on connections to number theory and representation theory. An excellent introduction to this important subject of current research, the book would be suitable as a text in advanced graduate courses.

    Titles in this series are co-published with the Centre de Recherches Mathématiques.
