Hi,
May I suggest that you get a book on this
subject? Your question is "too wide open"
in general to give a meaningful answer,
but generally the answer is "yes".
The Elliptic Curve Method definitely relies
on geometry, as does the difference of
squares. Even sieve methods rely to some
part on "geometry".
As to what kind of geometry, I don't want
to be condenscending, but the wording of
your question suggests that you would
not understand a meaningful answer.
Would the answer "algebraic geometry"
mean anything to you?
You can lead a horse's ass to knowledge, but you can't make him think.
