Distinguished Research Professor of Mathematics
Mail: Department of Mathematics, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602. Phone: (706) 542-2630 Fax: (706) 542-5907 or (706) 542-2573 Office: 442 Boyd Research and Education Center Email: lorenzin at uga dot edu I am the Faculty Director of the Research and Training
Group Algebra-Algebraic Geometry-Number Theory (AGANT) supported by a
$2,000,000 RTG grant from the NSF (2014-2022). I also chair the Personnel
Committee of the department (2018-2024), as well as the Hiring Committee for
tenure-track positions.
Other regular seminars: Joint
Athens-Atlanta Number Theory Seminar Available by clicking on the desired words are publications and preprints, and some information on my
book, An Invitation to Arithmetic Geometry. Prospective graduate students should check out the Number
Theory/Arithmetic Geometry Group at the University of Georgia. Do not
hesitate to contact me if you are interested in joining our group. You may
also access from here the University of Georgia Mathematics department. A review of John Tate's 1966
Bourbaki Seminar article, one of the
most important articles in the field, reprinted twice already. Math Reviews
has not published a review of this article or of any of its two reprinted
versions. How should one cite the
Elements de Géométrie Algébrique (EGA)? How should one cite Crelle’s Journal? Errata
for Lang’s book Fundamentals of Diophantine Geometry. For the mathematical travelers, I have included some
notes on several departments of mathematics that I visited in Africa. People doing mathematical research at institutions
with small libraries and who have problems getting access to mathematical
articles already in print should not hesitate to use the free UGA Mathematics Library copying service. Math
Trivia: Who coined the terminology Bézout domain? This
article is the earliest article (Nov 7th, 1960) that I found
in the literature where the term Bézout is
used in the modern sense. Surprisingly, the terminology is only inserted in
the title, and in the text, the author defines such a ring as `anneau semi-principal’. It makes one wonder whether
the insertion of `Bézout’ in the title
was suggested by a referee. Information

security should consider taking Math 4450/6450 (Cryptography), or MATH 4400/6400 (Number
Theory) Math 4600 (Probability) CSCI 4250/6250 (Computer Security) CSCI(MATH)(PHYS) 4612/6612 (Introduction to Quantum

`evaluations' of professors. Unfortunately, these
evaluations are anonymous, and the evaluator is self-selected: these
evaluations are usually from students that either really liked the professor,
or really disliked him/her. In my view, undergraduate students should
certainly try to find the best available professor teaching a course, but I
doubt that these web sites provide any meaningful information in this
respect. To help prospective students in their choice of a professor, I will
make public below my class evaluations: Differential Calculus (Math 2200,
Fall 2002, data for first section) Differential Calculus (Math 2200,
Fall 2002, data for second section) More recent evaluations for Integral Calculus: Integral
Calculus (Math 2260, Fall 2010) I am not claiming that class evaluations are the
best indicator of the quality of the instructor, but at least it is certainly
a better indicator than what is found on commercial web sites. Math 2250,
