Ribbon graphs capture the topology of open Riemann surfaces in an elementary combinatorial form. One can hope this is the first step toward a general theory for open symplectic manifolds such as Stein manifolds. We will discuss progress toward such...

Math for underprivileged high school kids

Rajiv Gandhi, Dan Zaharopol

We will hear from two passionate creators of successful mentoring programs in math for high school kids in educationally challenged environments. They will give back-to-back talks about their experiences and educational insights.

Abstract: (joint with N.Mok, J.Pila) Shimura varieties (S) are uniformized by symmetric spaces (H), and the uniformization map Pi:H --> S is quite transcendental. Understanding the interaction of this map with the two algebraic structures is of...

Arithmetic theta series

Stephan Kudla
Abstract: In recent joint work with Jan Bruinier, Ben Howard, Michael Rapoport and Tonghai Yang, we proved that a certain generating series for the classes of arithmetic divisors on a regular integral model M of a Shimura variety for a unitary...
