Points of Degree d on Curves over Number Fields

  • Conference paper

Part of the Lecture Notes in Mathematics book series (LNM,volume 1566)

Abstract

Arithmetic questions on the number of points of degree d on a smooth (irreducible) algebraic curve over a number field lead to geometric questions about the curve by using Faltings’s big theorem. We discuss here some questions and conjectures initiated by Abramovich and Harris in [4]. We refer to the end of this paper for a discussion of the recent literature.
