Summary
A unique synthesis of the three existing Fourier-analytic treatments of quadratic reciprocity. The relative quadratic case was first settled by Hecke in 1923, then recast by Weil in 1964 into the language of unitary group representations. The analytic proof of the general n-th order case is still an open problem today, going back to the end of Hecke’s famous treatise of 1923. The Fourier-Analytic Proof of Quadratic Reciprocity provides number theorists interested in analytic methods applied …

Critics Review
“Provides number theorists interested in analytic methods applied to reciprocity laws with an opportunity to explore the work of Hecke, Weil, and Kubota and their Fourier-analytic treatments…” (SciTech Book News, Vol. 24, No. 4, December 2000) “The content of the book is very important to number theory and is well-prepared…this book will be found to be very interesting and useful by number theorists in various areas.” (Mathematical Reviews, 2002a)
