Geometry & Topology
Some new point-counting algorithms
David Harvey (UNSW)
Thursday 4 June 2015 from 12:00–13:00 in Carslaw 535A
Please join us for lunch after the talk!
Abstract:
I will outline a new algorithm for counting points on varieties
defined over finite fields. The presentation will be elementary and will not
assume any prior experience with the point-counting problem. Details are
given in the preprint "Computing zeta functions of arithmetic schemes".
