Stanford University Title: On a problem related to the ABC conjecture Abstract: The ABC Conjecture, roughly stated says that the equation A+B+C=0 has no solutions for relatively prime, highly divisible integers A, B, and C. If the divisibility criteria are relaxed, then solutions exist and a conjecture of Mazur predicts the density of such solutions. We discuss techniques for proving this conjecture for certain ranges of parameters. Date: Thursday, March 20, 2014 Time: 4:30 pm Location: Wean Hall 8220 Submitted by: Boris Bukh |
