Research
Akio Tamagawa is mainly working on covers and fundamental groups of algebraic varieties (especially, curves and their moduli spaces) from the viewpoint of arithmetic geometry. In this direction, he is particularly interested in anabelian geometry and, among other things, he has proved the Grothendieck conjecture for affine curves over finite fields and over fields finitely generated over the rationals. He has also proved the finiteness of isomorphism classes of curves over algebraic closures of finite fields with prescribed fundamental groups.
