Arithmetic of elliptic curves and diophantine equations
Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux, Volume 11 (1999) no. 1, pp. 173-200.

We give a survey of methods used to connect the study of ternary diophantine equations to modern techniques coming from the theory of modular forms.

Nous décrivons un panorama des méthodes reliant l'étude des équations diophantiennes ternaires aux techniques modernes issues de la théorie des formes modulaires.
