Point-counting and topology of algebraic varieties (Siddarth Kannan, UCLA)
A projective algebraic variety X is the zero locus of a collection of homogeneous polynomials, in projective space. When the polynomials have integer coefficients, we can think of the k-valued points X(k) of the variety, for any field k. Now suppose we have two different fields k and k'. How does the behavior of X(k) […]
