✦ Synopsis

Cohomology of Drinfeld Modular Varieties provides an introduction, in two volumes, both to this subject and to the Langlands correspondence for function fields. It is based on courses given by the author who, to keep the presentation as accessible as possible, considers the simpler case of function rather than number fields; nevertheless, many important features can still be illustrated. Several appendices on background material make this a self-contained book. It will be welcomed by workers in algebraic number theory and representation theory.
