Title

Rational points on curves and variations on the method of Chabauty and Coleman

Abstract

The method of Chabauty and Coleman is one of the most

powerful tools to determine rational points on curves. In this talk,

we present various problems that amount to computing rational points

on curves and briefly explain geometrically and algebraically how to

use and apply the proper variant of the method of Chabauty and

Coleman.
