A p-adic approach to rational points on curves

© 2021. American Mathematical Society. In 1922 Mordell conjectured the striking statement that, for a polynomial equation f(x, y) = 0, if the topology of the set of complex number solutions is complicated enough, then the set of rational number solutions is finite. This was proved by Faltings in 198...
