Title: SOME REMARKS ON HASSE'S INEQUALITY
Abstract: Hasse's inequality regarding the number of points on an elliptic curve mod p has a colorful history. Some of this is well-known in that it led to the rapid development of algebraic geometry. But some work of Davenport in the 1930's that predate Hasse's work is not so well-known. The beauty and elegance of this work got buried in the sands of time. I will give a streamlined version of both Davenport and Hasse's works and discuss especially what Davenport's work suggests for the classical Riemann hypothesis.
