Over the last two decades, my expositions in Resonance are on roughly two topics { (i) number theory and combinatorics, and (ii) group theory. In this volume, some of the expositions related to the former topic have been put together. The chapter on the work of Chowla and Pillai is part of an article written in collaboration with R Thangadurai that appeared in Reso- nance. I would like to thank Thangadurai for allowing me to include it here. I have attempted to retain the original write-ups of the articles as much as possible other than carrying out some corrections and (minor) additions. As this is a compendium of articles that appeared in Resonance, at times some material is repeated in dierent chapters. Further, this makes the compilation somewhat uneven in terms of levels of mathematical maturity required of the reader despite my eorts to ensure uniformity.
