MINT

A Modern Introduction to Number Theory

 

Overview

This is the website for a summer school in number theory to be held in Pisa, Italy, from 1 to 6 of September 2024.

The summer school is aimed at advanced Master students and beginning PhD students. It will provide participants with a basic knowledge of some fundamental tools of modern number theory: class field theory, elliptic curves and arithmetic statistics. In addition to the lectures, interactive exercise sessions will offer participants the opportunity to put theoretical knowledge into practice, fostering a deeper understanding of the subject matter.
