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 $O$. |
