  Title:
         The Formal Group of an Elliptic Curve
        

Speaker:

          Ryota Mastuura (Boston University)
Abstract: A formal group is a power series $F(z_1,z_2)$ which may be described as a group law without any specified group elements. In this talk, I will introduce formal groups and discuss how they can be used to study the structure of an elliptic curve near its origin $O$.
