Review text

This second volume covers the period 1971-1977 and deals with a number of different topics. There are several papers on transcendental numbers and diophantine approximation, including two surveys, two papers on elliptic curves, and two papers on diophantine approximation on abelian varieties (one with J.~Coates) extending Masser's results on Baker's theory from elliptic curves to the higher dimensional situation (in the CM case). Lang's first work dealing with analytic number theory [On the zeta function of number fields, Invent. Math. 12, 337-345 (1971; Zbl 0217.04301)] is also reproduced. Several papers are devoted to the study of the automorphisms of the modular function field. Six papers with D.~Kubert on units in the modular function field are included. Among several joint works with \textit{H. Trotter} is a reprint of their Lecture Notes on the distribution of primes related with elliptic curves [Frobenius distributions in GL\(_2\)-extensions, Lecture Notes Mat. 504. Berlin: Springer-Verlag. (1976; Zbl 0329.12015)].
