The first lecture is on Monday, February 19, 2018. The first exercise class is on Friday, February 23, 2018. Algebraic integers, discriminant, ideal class group, Minkowski's theorem on the finiteness of the ideal class group, Dirichlet's unit theorem, cyclotomic fields, ramification theory, valuations, p-adic numbers, local fields, Galois theory of valuations, (+ other material from Neukirch's book for which time remains) Here are blackboard photos of the course ordered by date. Algebra II with Galois theory is a must; some commutative algebra of modules and Dedekind rings is desired.

The new exercises will usually be posted here on Wednesdays. We expect you to look at the problems and prepare questions for the exercise class on Friday.

Please hand in your solutions by the following Wednesday at 12:00 in the box in HG J 68. Your solutions will usually be corrected and returned in the following exercise class or, if not collected, returned to the box in HG J 68.
