UCLA Number Theory Group

Announcements Seminar People Courses Events Links


UCLA has a well-established research group in Number Theory. The group is led by 5 core faculty members, and currently has 5 post-doctoral members. Numerous graduate students, at all stages of their education, actively participate in the courses and seminars of the group. Additionally, a number of UCLA faculty members specialize in closely affiliated areas, such as K-theory, quadratic forms, additive combinatorics, and cryptography.
