Scientific paper
We give new proofs of two basic results in number theory: The law of
quadratic reciprocity and the sign of the Gauss sum. We show that these results
are encoded in the relation between the discrete Fourier transform and the
action of the Weyl element in the Weil representation modulo p,q and pq.
