Arithmetic Zeta-function

Supervised by C. S. Rajan (Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai), 2018

Work done during summer 2018 (June 04, 2018 to July 04, 2018). Supported by Visiting Students Research Program.

The generalized definition of zeta-function for higher dimensional varieties was studied, following the lecture notes by Prof. Bas Edixhoven and Prof. Lenny Taelman. I also learned the application of Weil conjectures for counting points on smooth projective curves over finite fields by following a few expository articles.
