Overview of the analogy between number fields and function fields
Abstract: We will give an example driven overview of the analogy between number fields and function fields of curves over finite fields. This will naturally lead us to discuss the analogy between rings of integers of number fields and affine curves over finite fields. If time permits we may discuss more complex invariants and how they compare.
