Recently there has been much interest in polynomial threshold functions in the context of learning theory, structural results and pseudorandomness. A crucial ingredient in these works is the understanding of the distribution of low-degree...

The Gaussian central limit theorem says that for a wide class of stochastic systems, the bell curve (Gaussian distribution) describes the statistics for random fluctuations of important observables. In this talk I will look beyond this class of...

We proved with Umberto Zannier that there are at most finitely many complex numbers $\lambda \neq 0,1$ such that two points on the Legendre elliptic curve $y^2=x(x-1)(x-\lambda)$ with coordinates $x=2$ and $x=3$ both have finite order. However we...

In this talk, I will describe a construction of a geometric realisation of a p-adic Jacquet-Langlands correspondence for certain forms of GL(2) over a totally real field. The construction makes use of the completed cohomology of Shimura curves, and...
