Cancelled Topics in Algebra and Number Theory
Course content
We will cover various topics in contemporary Algebra and Number Theory, such as Arithmetic Geometry, special functions, explicit methods, rational points, moduli problems in arithmetic, with the precise content depending on the modern questions asked in these fields.
MSc Programme in Mathematics
Knowledge: To display knowledge of the course topics and content, at the level of a beginning researcher.
Skills: To be able to use the acquired knowledge to obtain proofs.
Competences: To be able to produce independent
proofs in extension of
the acquired knowledge.
4 hours of lectures.
Lectures will be given by the professor and some talks will be
prepared and given by the students.
See Absalon for a list of course literature.
This course definitely fits in the circle of ideas presented in
these other courses: Algebra 3, Algebraic Number Theory, Analytic
Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry, Elliptic curves.
Algebra 3 and Algebraic Number Theory are highly recommended.
Academic qualifications equivalent to a BSc degree is
recommended.
