Mathematics Subject Classification: • 11F11 Research data for problems pertaining to number theory • 11F33 Congruences for modular and p-adic modular forms • 11F80 Galois representations • 11Rxx Algebraic number theory: global fields • 11Sxx Algebraic number theory: local fields

This book discusses the p-adic modular forms, the eigencurve that parameterize them, and the p-adic L-functions one can associate to them. These theories and their generalizations to automorphic forms for group of higher ranks are of fundamental importance in number theory.

For graduate students and newcomers to this field, the book provides a solid introduction to this highly active area of research. For experts, it will offer the convenience of collecting into one place foundational definitions and theorems with complete and self-contained proofs.

Written in an engaging and educational style, the book also includes exercises and provides their solution.
