Description

Modular curves are moduli spaces of elliptic curves with prescribed images of their Galois representations. They are a key tool in studying torsion groups, isogenies and, more generally, Galois representations of elliptic curves. In recent years great progress, in many directions, has been made in our understanding of points on modular curves of low degree. In this talk I will describe some of these recent results, their consequences, as well as open problems in the field.
