Workshop "Arithmetic and Geometry: Ten years in Alpbach"

This workshop is organized by J. Ayoub, A. Kresch, G. Wüstholz with the help of C. Fuchs. The workshop takes place from June 26 - July 1, 2016 at the Böglerhof in Alpbach/Tyrol, Austria.

This, the 10th in a series of Workshops in Alpbach, will feature minicourses and conference talks on the topics of previous years (see http://www.arithgeo.ethz.ch/prodocworkshops), covering a spectrum of modern arithmetic geometry. Minicourses presenting a broad overview of these topics, delivered by top international experts, will be complemented by conference talks highlighting recent progress.
