Abelian l-Adic Representations and Elliptic Curves
Introduction to Systems of l-adic Representations
This classic book contains an introduction to systems of l-adic representations, a topic of great importance in number theory and algebraic geometry, as reflected by the spectacular recent developments on the Taniyama-Weil conjecture and Fermat's Last Theorem.
The initial chapters are devoted to the Abelian case (complex multiplication), where one
