For an elliptic curve E over ℚ, the rank of its group of rational points equals the order of vanishing of the Hasse–Weil L-function L(E, s) at s = 1 — and the leading Taylor coefficient encodes the arithmetic fine structure (regulator, Tate–Shafarevich group).
Grown from machine experiments at Cambridge in the early 1960s. Proven in rank 0 and rank 1 by the combined work of Coates–Wiles, Gross–Zagier and Kolyvagin (the latter two winning major prizes for it). Even the parity version is recent triumph territory; the full statement remains beyond reach of any known technique.
