Tate’s non-archimedean uniformization of elliptic curves

E896827

Tate’s non-archimedean uniformization of elliptic curves is a foundational theory in arithmetic geometry that describes certain elliptic curves over non-archimedean fields via analytic uniformization using formal q-expansions, leading to what are now called Tate curves.
