DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/STAGE/104/">
 Baker's method</a>\nby Shiva Chidambaram (MIT) as part of STAGE\n\nLecture
  held in Room 2-131 in the MIT Simons Building.\n\nAbstract\nIn this talk\
 , we will discuss Baker's theorem on lower bounds for linear forms in loga
 rithms\, and how it gives effective bounds for quasi-integral points on $\
 \mathbb{P}^1 \\setminus \\{0\,1\,\\infty\\}$. Using coverings\, this furth
 er yields effective bounds for quasi-integral points on elliptic\, superel
 liptic and certain hyperelliptic affine curves. We will also discuss an ap
 plication towards finding elliptic curves with good reduction outside a gi
 ven finite set of places.\n\nReference: Chapter 8 of Serre\, Lectures on t
 he Mordell-Weil theorem.\n
