We are coming across this theorem so often, that I think it deserves a post of its own. We keep wishing that the number of intersection of two curves defined by equation of degrees and respectively, be but we constantly hit snags. In this post, we try to iron out things out all the way.

Welcome

This Fall, I will be teaching a course in Elliptic Curves with an emphasis on computations. I am thinking that posting some notes online would not hurt, hence this blog. Feel free to say hi.

Have a nice semester, everyone.
