Galois Representations and Automorphic Forms Seminar

Completed Cohomology of Shimura Curves and a p-Adic Jacquet-Langlands Correspondence
James Newton
2:15pm|S-101

In this talk, I will describe a construction of a geometric realisation of a p-adic Jacquet-Langlands correspondence for certain forms of GL(2) over a totally real field. The construction makes use of the completed cohomology of Shimura curves, and...

Automorphic Cohomology I (General Theory)
Phillip Griffiths
1:45pm|S-101

These two talks will be about automorphic cohomology in the non-classical case. By definition, automorphic cohomology are the groups $H^q( \Gamma \backslash D, L)$ where $D$ is a homogeneous complex manifold $G_{\mathbb R}/H$, $G_{\mathbb R}$ is a...

Statistics for Families of Automorphic Representations
Sug-Woo Shin
2:15pm|S-101

Let G be a connected reductive group over Q such that G(R) has discrete series representations. I will report on some statistical results on the Satake parameters (w.r.t. Sato-Tate distributions) and low-lying zeros of L-functions for families of...

Galois Representations Associated to Holomorphic Limits of Discrete Series
2:15pm|S-101

We attach Galois representations to automorphic representations on unitary groups whose weight (=component at infinity) is a holomorphic limit of discrete series. The main innovation is a new construction of congruences, using the Hasse Invariant...

Analytic Geometry Over F_1
2:15pm|S-101

I'll talk on work in progress on algebraic and analytic geometry over the field of one element F_1. This work originates in non-Archimedean analytic geometry as a result of a search for appropriate framework for so called skeletons of analytic...

Periods Over Spherical Subgroups: An Extension of Some of the Langlands Conjectures
3:30pm|S-101

Periods of automorphic forms over spherical subgroups tend to: (1) distinguish images of functorial lifts and (2) give information about L-functions. This raises the following questions, given a spherical variety X=H\G: Locally, which irreducible...

p-Adic Analytic Continuation of Genus 2 Overconvergent Hilbert Eigenforms in the Inert Case
2:15pm|S-101

A well known result of Coleman says that p-adic overconvergent (ellitpic) eigenforms of small slope are actually classical modular forms. Now consider an overconvergent p-adic Hilbert eigenform F for a totally real field L. When p is totally split...

The Bernstein Center of the Category of Smooth W(k)[GL_n(F)]-Modules
David Helm
2:15pm|S-101

The Bernstein center plays a role in the representation theory of locally profinite groups analogous to that played by the center of the group ring in the representation theory of finite groups. When F is a finite extension of Q_p, we discuss the...

Classification of Representations
Jim Arthur
1:00pm|S-101

Suppose that G is a connected, quasisplit, orthogonal or symplectic group over a field F of characteristic 0. We shall describe a classification of the irreducible representations of G(F) if F is local, and the automorphic representations of G in...

On the Comparison of Trace Formulas
Jim Arthur
2:15pm|S-101

We shall recall the spectral terms from the trace formula for G and its stabilaization, as well as corresponding terms from the twisted trace formula for GL(N). We shall then discuss aspects of the proof of the theorems stated in the first talk that...

Broué’s Abelian Defect Group Conjecture I
3:00pm|Remote Access Only

This talk will form part of a series of three talks focusing on Broué’s Abelian Defect Group Conjecture, which concerns the modular representation theory of finite groups. We will pay particular attention here to the ‘geometric’ form of the...

Broué’s Abelian Defect Group Conjecture II
3:00pm|Remote Access Only

In this second talk about Broué’s Abelian Defect Group Conjecture, we will explain its geometric version in the case of finite groups of Lie type: the equivalence should be induced by the cohomology complex of Deligne-Lusztig varieties. This was...

Finite groups as algebraic groups in defining characteristic
3:00pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

We will discuss $p$-local representation theory and conjectures of Broue and Alperin, the latter been inspired by finite groups of Lie type in characteristic $p$. The issue is the extent to which the category of representations can be reconstructed...

Finite groups as algebraic groups in non-defining characteristic
3:00pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

We will discuss the conjecture of Broue relating modular representations of finite groups of Lie type in non-defining characteristic to those of normalizers of Levi subgroups, with a focus on $GL_n$. The categories of representations can be related...

This is the first talk in a series of three talks towards understanding Bezrukavnikov-Finkelberg's derived geometric Satake equivalence. In this talk, we recall the geometry of equal characteristic affine Grassmannians and some of the ingredients of...

This is the last talk towards understanding Bezrukavnikov-Finkelberg's derived geometric Satake equivalence. With the preparations from previous talks, we will introduce two filtrations: a topological filtration on the equivariant cohomology and an...
