Rational Points: Seminar Bonn/Wuppertal 1983/84 A Publication of the Max-Planck-Institut für Mathematik, Bonn (Stuttgarter Beitrage Zur Historischen Migrationsforschung) (German Edition)

This book consists of the notes from the seminar Bonn/ Wuppertal 1983/ 84 on Arithmetic Geometry. It contains a proof for the Mordell conjecture and may be useful as an introduction to Arakelov's point of view in diophantine geometry. The third edition includes an appendix in which a detailed survey on the spectacular recent developments in arithmetic algebraic geometry is given. These beautiful new results have their roots in the material covered by this book.
