This book collects the papers presented at the Conference on Number Theory, held at the Kerala School of Mathematics, Kozhikode, Kerala, India, from December 10-14, 2018. The conference aimed at bringing the active number theorists and researchers in automorphic forms and allied areas to demonstrate their current research works. This book benefits young research scholars, postdoctoral fellows, and young faculty members working in these areas of research.
