description Costas arrays are not only useful in radar engineering, but they also present many interesting, and still open, mathematical problems. This work collects in it all important knowledge about them available today: some history of the subjects, density results, construction methods, construction algorithms with full proofs, and open questions. At the same time all the necessary mathematical background is offered in the simplest possible format and terms, so that this work can play the role of a reference for mathematicians and mathematically inclined engineers interested in the field.
