Abstract: When does an algebraic variety have "many" rational points? A possible formalisation of this notion is the (weak) Hilbert Property for algebraic varieties, a generalisation of Hilbert's classical irreducibility theorem. I will report on joint work in progress with G. Mezzedimi about a conjecture due to Campana and Corvaja-Zannier which concerns this property in the case of Enriques surfaces.
