- Vol. II: Analytische Zahlentheorie (1894), a work on analytic number theory in which Big O notation was first introduced
- Vol. III: Die Lehre von der Kreistheilung und ihre Beziehungen zur Zahlentheorie (first published in 1872)
- Vol. IV (Part 1): Die Arithmetik der quadratischen Formen (1898)
- Vol. IV (Part 2): Die Arithmetik der quadratischen Formen (posthumously published in 1923)
- Vol. V: Allgemeine Arithmetik der Zahlenkörper (1905)
- Niedere Zahlentheorie: First part (1902), Second part (1910),[2][3] a two-volume work on elementary number theory
- Das Fermat-Problem in seiner bisherigen Entwicklung, a work about Fermat's Last Theorem
gollark: I don't know how you would determine whether it's too low, but if you know that it's free of obstructions and you have waypoints/known position differences, it's fairly doable.
gollark: As an external consultant, yes.

gollark: No, I already work for [HG]Tech™™™™.
gollark: They'd only need to be chargers, support equipment and energy cells, too, as the drones can just ship new energy cells periodically.
