Notes on Jacquet-Langlands' Theory (Classical Topics in Mathematics)

The Jacquet-Langlands correspondence is an important case of the functorial principle in the Langlands program. This book is written by the founder of the eminent French school of automorphic representations and gives an accessible introduction to the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence. It starts from the basic results of automorphic representations and ends with the converse theorem for L-functions. This book is suitable for everyone who is interested in the Langlands program, in particular automorphic representations, L-functions and the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence.
