Diophantine approximation and filtrations McKinnon, David
Description
In this talk, I will introduce the notion of height, and how Diophantine inequalities help in Diophantine geometry. Specifically, I'll discuss the theorem of Faltings-Wuestholz and how it uses filtrations to derive Diophantine inequalities.
