On an elliptic curve $y^2=x^3+ax+b$, the points with coordinates $(x,y)$ in a given number field form a finitely generated abelian group. One natural question is how the rank of this group changes when changing the number field. For the simplest...

Give the details of the proof of "Theorem A" from week ten. Fukaya-Kato sections 6.3, 9.1-9.5.

I will describe joint work with Boris Solomyak, in which we show that the stationary (Furstenberg) measure on the projective line associated to 2x2 random matrix products has the "correct" dimension (entropy / Lyapunov exponent) provided that the...

An important question in hydrodynamic turbulence concerns the scaling proprties in the inertial range. Many years of experimental and computational work suggests---some would say, convincingly shows---that anomalous scaling prevails. If so, this...

The p-curvature conjecture is an analogue of the Hasse principle for arithmetic differential equations. I will discuss this conjecture in the context of families of algebraic varieties, and among other things, demonstrate a proof of the p-curvature...

Deligne's "Weil II" paper includes a far-reaching conjecture to the effect that for a smooth variety on a finite field of characteristic p, for any prime l distinct from p, l-adic representations of the etale fundamental group do not occur in...
