Education Zannier earned a Laurea degree from University of Pisa and studied at the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa with Ph.D. supervised by Enrico Bombieri. Career Zannier was from 1983 to 1987 a researcher at the University of Padua, from 1987 to 1991 an associate professor at the University of Salerno, and from 1991 to 2003 a full professor at the Università IUAV di Venezia. From 2003 to the present he has been a Professor in Geometry at the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa. In 2010 he gave the Hermann Weyl Lectures at the Institute for Advanced Study. He was a visiting professor at several institutions, including the Institut Henri Poincaré in Paris, the ETH Zurich, and the Erwin Schrödinger Institute in Vienna. With Jonathan Pila he developed a method (now known as the Pila-Zannier method) of applying O-minimality to number-t ...

Spilimbergo
Spilimbergo (german: Spengenberg; fur, Spilimberc or ) is a ''comune'' with a population of 11,961, located in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, in northern Italy, on the right side of the Tagliamento river. The town is notable as the home of the Mosaic School of Friuli (''Scuola Mosaicisti del Friuli''), which was founded in 1922 and has students from all over the world. History Spilimbergo's history begins around the 11th century, when the Spengenberg counts arrived from Carinthia and settled down in the area, acting as the vassals of the bishop of Aquileia. The name of the town derives from the ''castrum de Spengenberg'' (castle of the Spengenberg). However, human settlement had already been present for a long time. In the frazione of Gradisca, various remains of a ''castelliere'' have been discovered, and they are speculated to date back to the Roman era. Here there existed a road that crossed the Tagliamento river and stretched from Sacile to Germany. In the centuries foll ...

International Congress Of Mathematicians
The International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) is the largest conference for the topic of mathematics. It meets once every four years, hosted by the International Mathematical Union (IMU). The Fields Medals, the Nevanlinna Prize (to be renamed as the IMU Abacus Medal), the Gauss Prize, and the Chern Medal are awarded during the congress's opening ceremony. Each congress is memorialized by a printed set of Proceedings recording academic papers based on invited talks intended to be relevant to current topics of general interest. Being invited to talk at the ICM has been called "the equivalent ... of an induction to a hall of fame". History Felix Klein and Georg Cantor are credited with putting forward the idea of an international congress of mathematicians in the 1890s.A. John Coleman"Mathematics without borders": a book review ''CMS Notes'', vol 31, no. 3, April 1999, pp. 3-5 The University of Chicago, which had opened in 1892, organized an International Mathematical Con ...

Academia Europaea
The Academia Europaea is a pan-European Academy of Humanities, Letters, Law, and Sciences. The Academia was founded in 1988 as a functioning Europe-wide Academy that encompasses all fields of scholarly inquiry. It acts as co-ordinator of European interests in national research agencies. History The concept of a 'European Academy of Sciences' was raised at a meeting in Paris of the European Ministers of Science in 1985. The initiative was taken by the Royal Society (United Kingdom) which resulted in a meeting in London in June 1986 of Arnold Burgen (United Kingdom), Hubert Curien (France), Umberto Colombo (Italy), David Magnusson (Sweden), Eugen Seibold (Germany) and Ruurd van Lieshout (the Netherlands) – who agreed to the need for a new body. The two key purposes of Academia Europaea are: * express ideas and opinions of individual scientists from Europe * act as co-ordinator of European interests in national research agencies It does not aim to replace existing national ac ...

Accademia Dei Lincei
The Accademia dei Lincei (; literally the "Academy of the Lynx-Eyed", but anglicised as the Lincean Academy) is one of the oldest and most prestigious European scientific institutions, located at the Palazzo Corsini, Rome, Palazzo Corsini on the Via della Lungara in Rome, Italy. Founded in the Papal States in 1603 by Federico Cesi, the academy was named after the lynx, an animal whose sharp vision symbolizes the observational prowess that science requires. Galileo Galilei was the intellectual centre of the academy and adopted "Galileo Galilei Linceo" as his signature. "The Lincei did not long survive the death in 1630 of Cesi, its founder and patron", and "disappeared in 1651". During the nineteenth century, it was revived, first in the Vatican and later in the nation of Italy. Thus the Pontifical Academy of Science, founded in 1847, claims this heritage as the ''Accademia Pontificia dei Nuovi Lincei ("Pontifical Academy of the New Lynxes")'', descending from the first two incarnat ...

Istituto Veneto Di Scienze, Lettere Ed Arti
The Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti (IVSLA) is an academy of sciences in Venice. History The Istituto Veneto was created as the Reale Istituto Nazionale, created by Napoleon for the Kingdom of Italy in 1810. The current name was given in 1838 by Ferdinand I, Emperor of Austria, when Venetia was under Austrian Government. In 1866, after the annexation of Venetia to Kingdom of Italy, the Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti was recognized as one of the most prestigious Italian academies. Since 1838, the activity of Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti run uninterruptedly till nowadays. The first seat of the IVSLA was Palazzo Ducale then it transferred, in 1893, to Palazzo Loredan. In 1999 it was bought Palazzo Franchetti, and it inaugurated in 2004. Structure The institute accounts for 290 fellows, divided in two classes (Class of Sciences and Class of Humanities); each Class is made of fellows (soci effettivi), corresponding fellows (soci corrispo ...

Subspace Theorem
In mathematics, the subspace theorem says that points of small height in projective space lie in a finite number of hyperplanes. It is a result obtained by . Statement The subspace theorem states that if ''L''1,...,''L''''n'' are linearly independent linear forms in ''n'' variables with algebraic coefficients and if ε>0 is any given real number, then the non-zero integer points ''x'' with :, L_1(x)\cdots L_n(x), 0 is any given real number, then there are only finitely many rational ''n''-tuples (''x''1/y,...,''x''''n''/y) with :, a_i-x_i/y, The specialization ''n'' = 1 gives the . One may also note that the exponent 1+1/''n''+ε is best possible by
