Abstract
Since their introduction 125 years ago, p-adic numbers have become ever-present in number theory. When trying to develop a geometric theory analogous to that of complex manifolds in the p-adic setting, one runs into an immediate problem: the (topological) field of p-adic numbers is totally disconnected. In this talk I will explain how this can be overcome using the theory of adic spaces. I will do so by focusing on some concrete examples.
Series This talk is part of the Junior Geometry Seminar series.
