Collected Papers of Srinivasa Ramanujan
Influence of Ramanujan on number theory is without parallel in mathematics.
His papers, problems and letters have spawned
a remarkable number of later results by many different mathematicians.
Here, his 37 published papers, most of his first two and last letters to Hardy,
the famous 58 problems submitted to the Journal of the Indian Mathematical Society,
and the commentary of the original editors (Hardy, Seshu Aiyar and Wilson)
are reprinted again, after having been unavailable for some time.

Ramanujan:
Twelve Lectures on Subjects Suggested by His Life & Work
Ramanujan occupies a unique place in analytic number theory.
His formulas, identities and calculations are still amazing three-quarters of
a century after his death. Many of his discoveries seem to have appeared as if from the ether.
His mentor and primary collaborator was the famous G. H. Hardy.
Here, Hardy collects twelve of his own lectures on topics stemming from Ramanujan's life and work.

Complex Geometry of Groups
This volume presents the proceedings of the I Iberoamerican Congress on Geometry:
Cruz del Sur held in Olmue, Chile.
The main topic was
"The Geometry of Groups: Curves, Abelian Varieties, Theoretical and Computational Aspects"
Participants came from all over the world.
The volume gathers the expanded contributions from most of the participants in the Congress.
Articles reflect the topic in its diversity and unity, and in particular,
the work done on the subject by Iberoamerican mathematicians.
Original results and surveys are included on the following areas:
curves and Riemann surfaces, abelian varieties, and complex dynamics.
The approaches are varied, including Kleinian groups,
quasiconformal mappings and Teichmuller spaces, function theory,
moduli spaces, automorphism groups, algebraic geometry, and more.
