Abstract
When the editors of this volume and organizers of the conference asked me to lecture on group schemes with an eye to applications in arithmetic, they gave me—with characteristic forethought—a nearly impossible task. I was to cover group schemes in general, finite group schemes in particular, sketch an acquaintance with formal groups, and study p-divisible groups—all in the compass of some six hours of lectures!
