Artin's conjecture: multiplicative and elliptic

Abstract:

Artin's conjecture on primitive roots, which was originally formulated for multiplicative groups, has a natural analogue for elliptic curves. In this survey talk, I will discuss the analogy and focus on``new'' phenomena such as the existence of ``never-primitive'' points.
