The Shimura-Taniyama Conjecture posits a deep relationship between elliptic curves and modular forms, suggesting that every elliptic curve over the rational numbers is associated with a modular form. This conjecture is pivotal in understanding how number theory intertwines with algebraic geometry, particularly through the lens of complex multiplication and the action of Hecke operators.
congrats on reading the definition of Shimura-Taniyama Conjecture. now let's actually learn it.
