Joint IAS/PU Number Theory

On the Distribution of Modular Points on Deformation Rings
John Bergdall
3:30pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

The goal of this talk is to discuss a new local-global phenomenon in the Langlands program on automorphic forms and Galois representations. Spaces of modular forms are parametrized by weights, and those same weights parametrize local deformation...
