Integral Points On The Clebsch-Klein Surfaces
Rafael von Känel
4:30pm|Fine Hall 214, Princeton University

In this talk we present explicit bounds for the Weil height and the number of integral points on classical surfaces first studied by Clebsch (1871) and Klein (1873). Building on Hirzebruch's work in which he related these surfaces to a Hilbert...
