Title: Bounds on the number of rational points on hypersurfaces defined
over finite fields.

Abstract: In this talk, we will revisit some of the known bounds on the
number of rational points on hypersurfaces of a given degree defined over
a finite field. We will recall a conjecture proposed by Homma and Kim
towards a tight upper bound on the number of rational points on a
nonsingular hyperface contained in an even dimensional projective space
over a finite field. Finally, we will present a recent work towards
proving the above mentioned conjecture for nonsingular threefolds
contained in a four-dimensional projective space.
