The book surveys some recent developments in the arithmetic of modular elliptic curves. It places a special emphasis on the construction of rational points on elliptic curves, the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, and the crucial role played by modularity in shedding light on these two closely related issues. The main theme of the book is the theory of complex multiplication, Heegner points, and some conjectural variants. The first three chapters introduce the background and prerequisites: elliptic curves, modular forms and the Shimura-Taniyama-Weil conjecture, complex multiplication and the Heegner point construction. The next three chapters introduce variants of modular parametrizations in which modular curves are replaced by Shimura curves attached to certain indefinite quaternion algebras. The main new contributions are found in Chapters 7-9, which survey the author's attempts to extend the theory of Heegner points and complex multiplication to situations where the base field is not a CM field. Chapter 10 explains the proof of Kolyvagin's theorem, which relates Heegner points to the arithmetic of elliptic curves and leads to the best evidence so far for the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture.

The authors give a self-contained exposition of the theory of stochastic evolution equations. Elements of infinite dimensional analysis, martingale theory in Hilbert spaces, stochastic integrals, stochastic convolutions are applied. Existence and uniqueness theorems for stochastic evolution equations in Hilbert spaces in the sense of the semigroup theory, the theory of evolution operators, and monotonous operators in rigged Hilbert spaces are discussed. Relationships between the different concepts are demonstrated. The results are used to concrete stochastic partial differential equations like parabolic and hyperbolic Ito equations and random constitutive equations of elastic viscoplastic materials. Furthermore, stochastic evolution equations in rigged Hilbert spaces are approximated by time discretization methods.

This book grew out of three series of lectures given at the summer school on "Modular Forms and their Applications" at the Sophus Lie Conference Center in Nordfjordeid in June 2004. The first series treats the classical one-variable theory of elliptic modular forms. The second series presents the theory of Hilbert modular forms in two variables and Hilbert modular surfaces. The third series gives an introduction to Siegel modular forms and discusses a conjecture by Harder. It also contains Harder's original manuscript with the conjecture. Each part treats a number of beautiful applications.
