Lectures on Automorphic $L$-functions

Description

This book provides a comprehensive account of how automorphic $L$-functions play a crucial role in the Langlands program, especially, the Langlands functoriality conjecture, and in number theory. Recently there has been a major development in the Langlands functoriality conjecture by the use of automorphic $L$-functions, namely, by combining converse theorems of Cogdell and Piatetski-Shapiro with the Langlands-Shahidi method. This book introduces the reader to these developments step by step, and explains how the Langlands functoriality conjecture implies solutions to several outstanding conjectures in number theory, such as the Ramanujan conjecture, Sato-Tate conjecture, and Artin's conjecture. This book would be ideal for an introductory course in the Langlands program.
