Home›Mathematics›Algebra And Number TheoryGroupAlgebra And Number TheoryThis group collects the Mathematics subcategory's members whose defining work concerns algebra and number theory: abstract algebra, group theory, ring theory and the properties of numbers themselves, from the founders of algebraic notation to the modern number theorists who proved centuries-old conjectures. It is kept apart from Geometry And Topology, whose members work primarily in algebraic geometry or topology rather than algebra and number theory as their own subject.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonPrimary Research ApproachWell-attestedTheoretical 1Browse ByAll Algebra And Number TheoryAlgebra And Number Theory34 entriesAlgebra And Number TheoryFilter Results56 entriesDisciplineAllComputer Science (1)Logic (1)Mathematics (34)EraAll200 (1)780 (1)1437 (1)1601 (1)1749 (1)1789 (1)1802 (1)1804 (1)1805 (1)1806 (1)1811 (1)1815 (1)1821 (2)1823 (1)1831 (1)1882 (1)1887 (1)1913 (1)1916 (1)1917 (1)1925 (1)1931 (1)1939 (1)1940 (1)1952 (1)1955 (2)1959 (1)1966 (2)1975 (1)1984 (1)1987 (1)NationalityAllAbbasid Caliphate (1)Australia (1)Canada (1)China (1)France (8)Germany (5)Greece (1)Hungary (2)Ireland (1)Israel (3)Italy (2)Kingdom of Prussia (1)Marinid dynasty (1)New Zealand (1)Norway (2)Poland (1)Romania (1)Russia (2)South Africa (1)Soviet Union (4)Ukraine (1)United Kingdom (11)United States (18)Wattasid dynasty (1)FieldAllAstronomy (2)Computer Science (1)Engineering (1)Linguistics (1)Mathematics (33)Physics (3)Statistics (1)InstitutionAllAcademie des Sciences (2)Bell Labs (1)Ecole Polytechnique (1)Fields Medal (2)French National Centre for Scientific Research (1)Hebrew University of Jerusalem (1)House of Wisdom (1)Humboldt University of Berlin (3)Imperial College London (1)Institute for Advanced Study (3)London Mathematical Society (1)Moscow State University (1)National Academy of Sciences (3)Princeton University (1)Purdue University (1)Royal Society (4)Saint Petersburg State University (1)Stanford University (1)Trinity College, Cambridge (1)University College London (1)University of California, Los Angeles (1)University of California, Santa Barbara (1)University of Cambridge (1)University of Göttingen (2)University of Königsberg (1)University of Manchester (1)University of Oxford (1)University of Pennsylvania (1)École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (1)In GroupAllAlgebra And Number Theory (34)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 50Alan BakerMathematics3 linksAl-KhwarizmiMathematics3 linksAndré WeilMathematics4 linksArthur CayleyMathematics2 linksAtle SelbergMathematics2 linksAugustin-Louis CauchyMathematics2 linksAugustus De MorganMathematics4 linksCarl Gustav Jacob JacobiMathematics2 linksClaude ShannonMathematics5 linksDaniel QuillenMathematics2 linksDavid KazhdanMathematics3 linksDiophantusMathematics1 linkEfim ZelmanovMathematics2 linksEmmy NoetherMathematics5 linksÉvariste GaloisMathematics1 linkG.
