\section*{References for Number Theory, MSC 11}
The following are excellent sources for the indicated areas in Number Theory.
\subsection*{Elementary Number Theory, MSC 11A}
\begin{enumerate}
\item G.~H. Hardy, E.~M. Wright, {\em An Introduction To The Theory Of Numbers}, Oxford University Press, London.
\begin{quote}
An introductory book which is both comprehensive and comprehensible.
\end{quote}
\item K. Ireland, M. Rosen, {\em A Classical Introduction to Modern Number Theory}, Springer-Verlag, 1998.
\end{enumerate}
\subsection*{Sequences and sets, MSC 11B}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Halberstam and Roth, {\em Sequences}, Oxford Clarendon Press
\begin{quote}
This well-written book is somewhat outdated by now, but it is an excellent source to learn the basics from.
\end{quote}
\item Nathanson, {\em Inverse Problems and Geometry of Sumsets}, Springer
\begin{quote}
The inverse problem in additive number theory is the problem of inferring the structure of summands from the structure of the sumset. The book is the most complete source for information on such problems.
\end{quote}
\end{enumerate}
\subsection*{Diophantine equations, MSC 11D}

\subsection*{Exponential sums and character sums, MSC 11L}
\begin{enumerate}
\item E.~C. Titchmarsh, {\em The Theory of the Riemann Zeta-function}. second ed. Oxford Science Pub. 1986
\begin{quote}
The book covers the classical methods of Weyl, van der Corput/Phillips as well as mean-value method of Vinogradov.
\end{quote}
\end{enumerate}
\subsection*{Multiplicative number theory, MSC 11N}
