Shimura curves and bounds for the $abc$ conjecture

By Hector Pasten

Also appears in collection : Diophantine geometry / ​Géométrie diophantienne

I will explain some new connections between the $abc$ conjecture and modular forms. In particular, I will outline a proof of a new unconditional estimate for the $abc$ conjecture, which lies beyond the existing techniques in this context. The proof involves a number of tools such as Shimura curves, CM points, analytic number theory, and Arakelov geometry. It also requires some intermediate results of independent interest, such as bounds for the Manin constant beyond the semi-stable case. If time permits, I will also explain some results towards Szpiro's conjecture over totally real number fields which are compatible with the discriminant term appearing in Vojta's conjecture for algebraic points of bounded degree.
