The staff of the laboratory works on several subjects.
 
 
	 | 
		A.N. Andrianov, N.V. Proskurin and O.M. Fomenko study the arithmetic of 
		quadratic forms, related modular forms and zeta-functions.
		 |  
| 
		S. A. Evdokimov develops methods of algebraic combinatorics. 
		 |  
| 
		V.V. Ishchanov and B.B. Lurje deal with the inverse Galois problem.
		 |  
| 
		The work of B.B. Venkov is concentrated on the theory of extremal 
		lattices in Euclidian spaces. 
		 |  
| 
		N.V. Durov and A.L. Smirnov develop a theory of generalized rings 
		and work on its applications to number theory. 
		 |  
| 
		Scientific activity of I.A. Panin, A.A. Suslin and of S.A. Yagunov 
		is related to motivic cohomology theories of algebraic varieties and, 
		in particular, to K-theory.
