Summary
Point Counting and Diophantine Geometry: Unveiling the Zilber-Pink Conjecture
Point-counting results for sets in real Euclidean space have sparked remarkable advancements in diophantine geometry, leading to significant progress on the André–Oort and Zilber–Pink conjectures.
This progress melds concepts near to transcendence theory with the inherent tameness of sets definable within an o-minimal structure, weaving together model theory, transcendence theory, and arithmetic.
