Research

Takloo-Bighash computed the local factors of spinor L-function attached to generic automorphic forms on the symplectic group GSp(4).[citation needed] He has joint works with Joseph Shalika and Yuri Tschinkel on the distribution of rational points on certain group compactifications.[citation needed] He is a co-author, with Steven J. Miller, of An Invitation To Modern Number Theory (Princeton University Press, 2006).
