Galois-teichmAœller Theory And Arithmetic Geometry

From the 1980's, Grothendieck's “Esquisse d'un Programme” triggered tremendous developments in number theory and arithmetic geometry, extending from the studies of anabelian geometry and related Galois representations to those of polylogarithms and multiple zeta values, motives, rational points on arithmetic varieties, and effectiveness questions in arithmetic geometry.

The present volume collects twenty-four articles written by speakers (and their coauthors) of two international meetings focused on the above themes held in Kyoto in October 2010.

It includes both survey articles and research papers which provide useful information about this area of investigation.Published by Mathematical Society of Japan and distributed by World Scientific Publishing Co. for all markets except North America
