Contributions to Number Theory

 

Gauss's work in number theory remains one of his most significant contributions. At the age of 21, he published his groundbreaking book, "Disquisitiones Arithmeticae," which revolutionized the field. In this seminal work, Gauss established the foundations of modern number theory, introducing concepts such as modular arithmetic, quadratic reciprocity, and congruence. His discoveries laid the groundwork for further advancements in mathematics and influenced countless mathematicians for generations to come.
