MATH 238 Elliptic Functions and Modular Forms

The course, aimed at second-year graduate students, will cover the basic facts about elliptic functions and modular forms. The goal is to provide the student with foundations suitable for further work in advanced number theory, in conformal field theory, and in the theory of Riemann surfaces.

Requirements

Prerequisite(s): MATH 200, MATH 201, MATH 202, and either MATH 207 or MATH 103A are recommended as preparation. Enrollment is restricted to graduate students.
