Elliptic Curves over Function Fields
by Douglas Ulmer
Publisher: arXiv 2011
Number of pages: 72
Description:
These are the notes from a course of five lectures at the 2009 Park City Math Institute. The focus is on elliptic curves over function fields over finite fields. In the first three lectures, we explain the main classical results (mainly due to Tate) on the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture in this context and its connection to the Tate conjecture about divisors on surfaces.

This book, intended for research mathematicians, proves the duality theorems that have come to play an increasingly important role in number theory and arithmetic geometry, for example, in the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.

The third book in a series exploring the set of problems called Smarandache Notions. This work delves more deeply into the mathematics of the problems, the level of difficulty here will be somewhat higher than that of the previous books.
