Abstract

To introduce basic ideas in unlikely intersection, we will talk about the Pila-Zannier proof of the multiplicative Manin-Mumford conjecture, and how the ideas can be applied to the André–Oort conjecture. No technical details will be included. This is the first talk in a series of talks in Diophantine geometry and unlikely intersection. This is a hybrid seminar.
