    About this ebook

    New interest in modular forms of one complex variable has been caused chiefly by the work of Selberg and of Eichler. But there has been no introductory work covering the background of these developments. H. C. Gunning's book surveys techniques and problems; only the simpler cases are treated-modular forms of even weights without multipliers, the principal congruence subgroups, and the Hecke operators for the full modular group alone.

      The Sacred, Spherical Cows of Physics: Theoretical physics milks symmetry to power its newest tool.

      May 1, 2014

      Early in their training, many physics students come across the idea of spherical cows. Cows in the real world—even at their most plump and well-fed—are hardly spherical, and this makes it tricky to calculate things like, say, how their volume or surf
