p-adic Number theory: An expository survey
Author(s): Kumar Aditay
Abstract: p-adic number theory provides a powerful alternative to the real and complex number systems, offering a unique lens through which to study number-theoretic phenomena. Originating from the work of Kurt Hensel in the late 19th century, p-adic numbers have become indispensable in modern mathematics, with applications ranging from Diophantine equations and algebraic geometry to cryptography and mathematical physics. This paper presents an expository survey of p-adic number theory aimed at advanced graduate students, covering foundational definitions, key results, and notable applications.
