Symmetric Power Functoriality For Hilbert Modular Forms
Jack Thorne
4:30pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Symmetric power functoriality is one of the basic cases of Langlands' functoriality conjectures and is the route to the proof of the Sato-Tate conjecture (concerning the distribution of the modulo p point counts of an elliptic curve over Q, as the...

Resonances as a Computational Tool
Katharina Schratz
3:00pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

A large toolbox of numerical schemes for dispersive equations has been established, based on different discretization techniques such as discretizing the variation-of-constants formula (e.g., exponential integrators) or splitting the full equation...

Special Year Research Seminar

Around Gauss Circle Problem: Hardy's Conjecture and the Distribution of Lattice Points Near Circles
Igor Wigman
2:00pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

This talk is based on a joint work with Steve Lester.

We review the Gauss circle problem, and Hardy's conjecture regarding the order of magnitude of the remainder term. It is attempted to rigorously formulate the folklore heuristics behind Hardy's...

Joint IAS/PU Number Theory Seminar

Harris-Venkatesh Plus Stark
Robin Zhang
4:30pm|Princeton University, Fine Hall 214

The class number formula describes the behavior of the Dedekind zeta function at s=0 and s=1. The Stark and Gross conjectures extend the class number formula, describing the behavior of Artin L-functions and p-adic L-functions at s=0 and s=1 in...
