Number Theory @ SDU
  • CIMPA Research School on Automorphic forms and L-functions [Aug 2010]
     
    The CIMPA Research School will be held at Shandong University, Weihai Campus, China, during August 1-14, 2010, and will focus on Automorphic forms and L-functions.

    The research school is intended to higher education and research teaching staffs. The expected audiences are PhD students, young faculty members from universities in Asia. The expected number of participants (not including the speakers) is 50, among which 40 from China and 10 from other countries or districts.

    The school is sponsored by the CIMPA, the NSF of China, and Shandong University.

  • Description of Lectures for March 2009
    > > >
    I shall introduce the Langlands picture of automorphic forms and  L-functions by carefully surveying the known theory for GL(1). This means starting with Riemann's zeta-function, and progressing through Hecke's generaliztions of it in 1916. After doing this, I shall introduce the adeles and ideles of a number field. This will make it easier to discuss Artin's L-seies attached to a Galois group, his beautiful statement of abelian class field theory, and (his student) Tate's redoing of Riemann-Hecke L-functions in 1950. These results ultimately form part of the motivation of the general Langlands program.

    大数学家Gelbart明年三月份要来一个月!大家要好好准备一下,主要内容是GL(1)上的。不过建议下学期大家还是轮流讨论一下S. Gelbart Automorphic Forms on Adele Groups ,至少前六章,大家应该知道!
