Complex and arithmetic dynamics in dimension 1

In this talk, I will discuss connections between complex dynamics and arithmetic geometry. Specifically, I will address a question in complex dynamics, inspired by the Andre-Oort Conjecture from arithmetic geometry, and a question in arithmetic geometry (a theorem of Masser and Zannier) with a dynamical proof. This is joint work with Matthew Baker, Xiaoguang Wang, and Hexi Ye.
