Modular Generating Series for Real Quadratic Heegner Objects
Alice Pozzi
5:15pm|Simonyi Hall 101

Abstract: The theory of elliptic curves with complex multiplication has yielded some striking arithmetic applications, ranging from (cases of) Hilbert’s Twelfth Problem to the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer Conjecture. These applications rely on the...

Joint IAS/Princeton/Montreal/Paris/Tel-Aviv Symplectic Geometry Zoominar

New Algebraic Invariants of Legendrian Links
Lenhard Ng
9:15am|Remote Access

For the past 25 years, Legendrian contact homology has played a key role in contact topology. I'll discuss a package of new invariants for Legendrian knots and links that builds on Legendrian contact homology and is derived from rational symplectic...

Deligne-Lusztig theory: examples and applications
Charlotte Chan
9:30am|Simonyi Hall 101

Abstract: Geometry and representation theory are intertwined in deep and foundational ways. One of the most important instances of this relationship was uncovered in the 1970s by Deligne and Lusztig: the representation theory of matrix groups over...

A Glimpse into the Langlands Program
10:45am|Simonyi Hall 101

Abstract: The goal of this lecture series is to give you a glimpse into the Langlands program, a central topic at the intersection of algebraic number theory, algebraic geometry and representation theory. In the first lecture, we will look at a...

IAS Amplitudes Group Meeting

Structures in the Non-Planar Sector of QCD
Giulio Gambuti
2:30pm|Bloomberg Lecture Hall (IAS)

Abstract: Scattering amplitudes can be used to probe the all-orders structure of gauge theories. Particularly rich is the non-planar sector, where physical phenomena such as quadrupole radiation and multi-reggeon interactions appear. In this talk I...
