Katz Publisher: Princeton University Press Print ISBN: 9780691084336, 0691084335 eText ISBN: 9781400882120, 1400882125 Copyright year: 1988 Format: PDF Available from $ 90.00 USD SKU 9781400882120 The study of exponential sums over finite fields, begun by Gauss nearly two centuries ago, has been completely transformed in recent years by advances in algebraic geometry, culminating in Deligne's work on the Weil Conjectures. It now appears as a very attractive mixture of algebraic geometry, representation theory, and the sheaf-theoretic incarnations of such standard constructions of classical analysis as convolution and Fourier transform. The book is simultaneously an account of some of these ideas, techniques, and results, and an account of their application to concrete equidistribution questions concerning Kloosterman sums and Gauss sums.
