Title: An effective form of Pila-Wilkie for pfaffian functions
Abstract: I’ll discuss recent effective versions of the Pila-Wilkie theorem for sets definable using pfaffian functions. If there is time, I’ll also discuss some applications including a strong uniform version of Manin-Mumford for products of CM elliptic curves, and some effective results on certain mixed Andre-Oort problems.
We will meet for coffee and tea at 3:15pm in the Huxley 5th floor common room and go to the pub after the seminar.
