Talk:Algebraic number theory

message: I'm willing to contribute to this article, but can someone give me some hints which parts should be extended/added? Ringspectrum (talk) 21:06, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Quite a bit. What I've tried to do so far was add some stuff on basic notions so that the rest of the article can be written and make sense (in a more complete version, I would expect much of what I've written to be placed in their own articles). From here, I think it would be useful to start incorporating more recent stuff to better delineate what algebraic number theory is these days such as galois representations, automorphic forms, Iwasawa theory, arithmetic geometry, for example. These each have their own articles (kinda) but some mention of them here would be good. Or maybe it's just that that is what would be easiest for me to add. I think anything that would add content to wiki relevant to algebraic number theory would be good. Do you have any ideas? If so, by all means go ahead. I also have some things I've thought of at User:RobHar/Sandbox3. And of course, the vast and important history of algebraic number theory should be addressed. Cheers.

replies: text: I added a subsection on local fields. You could add things like curves over number fields or Dedekind schmes and Abelian varieties/schemes to your list.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ringspectrum (talk • contribs) 22:32, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The history and historical development of the subject is sorely missing from this article. Damien Karras (talk) 12:36, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I also noticed that while mentioned once above, there is currently no talk about including open problems. Adding some would possibly help give the reader an idea of some of the motivating questions in the field. Also, Fermats last theorem is never mentioned in the article.LkNsngth (talk) 17:42, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Another comment: somewhere in the article, someone should explain what the notation Z[\sqrt{5}] means. I would add it but it seems to not fit anywhere LkNsngth (talk) 04:27, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps someone can add a section talking about the Langlands program (I know there is another page on it, but it is kind of small). As I understand, this is a important subject in number theory.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by LkNsngth (talk • contribs) 04:43, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I inserted two footnotes to explain the notation for Z[i] and Z[\sqrt{5}].—Anita5192 (talk) 05:27, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Algebraic number theory's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 16:36, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

message: I can find no book by William Stein named "A Computational Introduction to Algebraic Number Theory". Does the original editor mean this book instead: Algebraic Number Theory, a Computational Approach? Thatsme314 (talk) 13:13, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
