Title:
Thoughts about Andrew Ogg’s (Torsion) conjecture

Speaker:
Barry C. Mazur

Abstract:
Ogg’s celebrated conjecture can be paraphrased as saying that rational points (on the modular curves that parametrize torsion points on elliptic curves) exist if and only if there is a good geometric reason for them to exist. Ogg’s mathematical viewpoint has inspired an increasingly broad array of results and conjectures. B. Mazur’s talk will discuss this and recent related work.
