Computational Aspects in the Braid Group and Applications to Cryptography
Mina Teicher
11:15am|West Bldg. Lecture Hall

The braid group on n strands may be viewed as an infinite analog of the symmetric group on n elements with additional topological phenomena. It appears in several areas of mathematics, physics and computer sciences, including knot theory, algebraic...

Mod p Points on Shimura Varieties
Mark Kisin
4:30pm|Fine Hall -- 214

A conjecture of Langlands-Rapoport predicts the structure of the mod p points on a Shimura variety. The conjecture forms part of Langlands' program to understand the zeta function of a Shimura variety in terms of automorphic L-functions. I will...
