    Visibility of Mordell-Weil Groups of Abelian Varieties

    During the past few years, Barry Mazur, myself, and others have studied visible subgroups of Shafarevich-Tate groups of abelian varieties. Recently, I've been studying visibility of Mordell-Weil groups of abelian varieties. In this talk, I will briefly review some results about visibility of Shafarevich-Tate groups, then discuss what I've been able to prove about their counterparts in the theory of visibility of Mordell-Weil groups.
