Essays on the Theory of Numbers
by Richard Dedekind
Publisher: The Open Court Publishing 1901
ISBN/ASIN: 0486210103
Number of pages: 78
Description:
This is a book combining two essays by Dedekind: "Continuity and irrational numbers" - Dedekind's way of defining the real numbers from rational numbers; and "The nature and meaning of numbers" where Dedekind offers a precise explication of the natural numbers (using what are now called the Peano axioms, since Peano made so much of them after reading Dedekind).

Geometry of Numbers with Applications to Number Theory
by Pete L. Clark - University of Georgia
The goal is to find and explore open questions in both geometry of numbers -- e.g. Lattice Point Enumerators, the Ehrhart-Polynomial, Minkowski's Convex Body Theorems, Minkowski-Hlawka Theorem, ... -- and its applications to number theory.

Arithmetic Duality Theorems
by J.S. Milne - BookSurge Publishing
This book, intended for research mathematicians, proves the duality theorems that have come to play an increasingly important role in number theory and arithmetic geometry, for example, in the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.

An Introduction to the Smarandache Function
by Charles Ashbacher - Erhus Univ Pr
In the 1970's a Rumanian mathematician Florentin Smarandache created a new function in number theory, which consequences encompass many areas of mathematics.The purpose of this text is to examine some of those consequences.
