Gamay The grape brought relief to the village growers following the decline of the Black Death. In contrast to the Pinot noir variety, Gamay ripened two weeks earlier and was less difficult to cultivate. It also produced a strong, fruitier wine in a much larger abundance. In July 1395, the Duke of Burgundy Philippe the Bold outlawed the cultivation of the grape, referring to it as the ""disloyal Gaamez"" that in spite of its ability to grow in abundance was full of ""very great and horrible harshness"", due in part to the variety's occupation of land that could be used for
Arithmetic of abelian varieties Arithmetic of abelian varieties In mathematics, the arithmetic of abelian varieties is the study of the number theory of an abelian variety, or family of those. It goes back to the studies of Pierre de Fermat on what are now recognized as elliptic curves; and has become a very substantial area both in terms of results and conjectures. Most of these can be posed for an abelian variety "A" over a number field "K"; or more generally (for global fields or more general finitely-generated rings or fields). There is some tension here between concepts: "integer point" belongs in a sense
