DESCRIPTION:Title: Counting and Finding Rational Points on Surfaces\\r\\nAb
 stract: A celebrated result of Coleman gives an explicit version of Chabau
 ty's theorem\, bounding the number of rational points on curves over numbe
 r fields via the study of zeros of p-adic analytic functions. While many d
 evelopments have extended and refined this result\, obtaining analogous ex
 plicit bounds for higher-dimensional subvarieties of abelian varieties rem
 ains a major challenge.\\r\\nIn this talk\, I will sketch the proof of suc
 h an explicit bound for surfaces contained in abelian varieties — a step
  toward a higher-dimensional Chabauty–Coleman method. This is joint work
  with Héctor Pastén.I will also describe an application of this method t
 o a computational problem: determining an upper bound for the number of un
 expected quadratic points on hyperelliptic curves of genus 3 defined over 
 Q. I will illustrate the method through an explicit example where this set
  can be computed. This is joint work with Jennifer Balakrishnan.
