Research Overview
Our research is concerned with the arithmetic of elliptic curves and abelian varieties, especially conjectures giving the relation between arithmetic invariants of such varieties and special values of L-functions. We hope to attack such conjectures by unlocking the secrets of an important arithmetic geometric objects called the polylogarithm.
