Abstract

The central themes of the fourth chapter are the creation of the modern ideal theory by Emmy Noether, and the proofs of the fundamental theorems of the class-field theory by Takagi and Artin. Also various other questions were considered at that time, for example the first results in the additive theory of algebraic numbers obtained by Rademacher.
