Number Theory Seminar: Ranks of elliptic curves over function fields
- Date: 11/26/2009
Lecturer(s):
Jay Heumann (UBC)
Location:
University of British Columbia
Description:
This talk is based on a series of five lectures given by Doug Ulmer at
the Park City Mathematics Institute in 2009. I will present Ulmer's
proof that elliptic curves over function fields can have arbitrarily
high Mordell-Weil rank.
Schedule:
4:10pm-5:00pm, WMAX 110

preceded by refreshments at 3:50pm
