Galois groups and number theory
Journal article, 2011
This is a survey article on algebraic number theory and its purpose is to
show the great importance of Galois groups
in different number theoretical problems.
In particular, the role of Galois representations in connection with the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem is one of the topics.
