Joint IAS/Princeton University Number Theory Seminar

Diophantine problems and the $p$-adic Torelli map

We explore the comparison isomorphism of $p$-adic Hodge theory in the case of elliptic curves, and discuss some ideas which may be used to prove the S-unit theorem and the finiteness of rational points on higher-genus curves (Faltings' theorem).
