Title: Some specialization theorems in geometry and number theory



Abstract: Specialization theorems roughly speaking assert that some 
property valid for a family remains valid for some specialization of the 
parameters describing the family. We shall recall well-known instances, 
such as Bertini and Hilbert Irreducibility theorems, and present some 
new results. We shall also illustrate some new kind of specialization 
theorems, e.g. for moduli spaces of abelian varieties.
