The Weil conjectures provided one of the main motivations for the development of arithmetic geometry. In this talk, we will introduce the Hasse-Weil zeta function and discuss how to prove the Weil conjectures for curves. If time permits, we will explore how cohomological methods can be used to prove the general case of the Weil conjectures. Speaker(s): Patrick Lenning (UM)
