Diophantine geometry | Algebraic varieties
In mathematics, a Mordellic variety is an algebraic variety which has only finitely many points in any finitely generated field. The terminology was introduced by Serge Lang to enunciate a range of conjectures linking the geometry of varieties to their Diophantine properties. (Wikipedia).
What are the names of different types of polygons based on the number of sides
π Learn about polygons and how to classify them. A polygon is a plane shape bounded by a finite chain of straight lines. A polygon can be concave or convex and it can also be regular or irregular. A concave polygon is a polygon in which at least one of its interior angles is greater than 1

Determining if a set of points is a rhombus, square or rectangle
π Learn how to determine the figure given four points. A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides. Some of the types of quadrilaterals are: parallelogram, square, rectangle, rhombus, kite, trapezoid, etc. Each of the types of quadrilateral has its properties. Given four points that repr

What is the Mordell-Lang problem?
It is my intention to eventually explain some things about the Mordell-Lang problem and the higher dimensional versions of these. The presentation in this video is due to Mazur and can be found in an MSRI article he wrote that introduces these things.

The height of a rational number a/b (a, b integers which are coprime) is defined as max(|a|, |b|). A rational number with small (resp. big) height is a simple (resp. complicated) number. Though the notion of height is so naive, height has played fundamental roles in number theory. There ar
