Number theoretical topics in inverse Galois theory

Short summary

The aim of the course will be to introduce the audience to both inverse Galois theory and some number theoretical topics involved in inverse Galois theory. We will set some recent result of the lecturer as the final goal and will use it as a motivation to discuss the topics that it goes through: the Inverse Galois problems, the geometric approach, Hilbert's irreducibility theorem, the Tchebotarev theorem, the Grunwald problem, the Malle conjecture, some diophantine material on curves: Lang-Weil over finite fields, Heath-Brown-Walkowiak over the rationals, etc.
