Rational Points (M04 (A12))

• Subject Area: Mathematics
• Term: from 2011 to 2019
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 30164218

The study of rational points is related to diophantine problems, motivic cohomology, and special arithmetic varieties. New working packages in this project involve diophantine bounds for Weierstrass sections, and the arithmetic of Euler systems. Although related by a common theme, they approach this topic from quite different points of view.
