Speaker:  Raymond van Bommel (MIT)

Title:  Proof of the amplification principle 1

Abstract:  We will recall the definitions of the Betti map and Betti rank, and look at the degeneration locus of abelian schemes. We will see how these notions are related to each other, and the bi-algebraic structure that we saw in the previous talk.
