Algebraic number theory
Algebraic number theory is a major branch of number theory which studies algebraic structures related to algebraic integers. This is generally accomplished by considering a ring of algebraic integers O in an algebraic number field K/Q, and studying their algebraic properties such as factorization,...

Abc conjecture
The abc conjecture is a conjecture in number theory, first proposed by Joseph Oesterlé and David Masser in 1985. The conjecture is stated in terms of three positive integers, a, b and c , which have no common factor and satisfy a + b = c...
