A number of texts have recently become available which provide good general introductions to p-Adic numbers and p-Adic analysis. However, there is at present a gap between such books and the sophisticated applications in the research literature. This book bridges this gulf by providing a collection of intermediate level articles on various applications of p-Adic techniques throughout mathematics.
This book provides a collection of intermediate level articles on various applications of p-adic techniques throughout mathematics. Some of these articles grew out of talks given at the meeting p-adic Methods and their Applications held at Manchester University in 1989.

The first edition of this work has become the standard introduction to the theory of p-adic numbers at both the advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate level. This second edition includes a...
There are numbers of all kinds: rational, real, complex, p-adic. The p-adic numbers are less well known than the others, but they play a fundamental role in number theory and in other parts of...
