Organizing Committee
Abstract

In recent years, there has been an explosion of activity surrounding algebraic points on curves, from many different perspectives. These include the study of measures of irrationality, isolated and parametrized points, computational methods to determine algebraic points, and the arithmetic statistics of algebraic points. In this workshop, we aim to bring together researchers from these diverse perspectives, with the particular goal of developing bridges between them. The workshop will include overview talks on the various perspectives, research talks, an open problem session, and structured time for collaboration.
