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...

The Unique Games conjecture (UGC) has emerged in recent years as the starting point for several optimal inapproximability results. While for none of these results a reverse reduction to Unique Games is known, the assumption of bijective projections...

Green and Tao [GT] used the existence of a dense subset indistinguishable from theprimes under certain tests from a certain class to prove the existence of arbitrarily longprime arithmetic progressions. Tao and Ziegler [TZ] showedsome general...

The Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma (also known as Random Projections) states that any set of n points in Euclidian space can be embedded almost isometrically into another Euclidian space of dimension O(log(n)). The talk will focus on the efficiency of...

For many elegant mathematical examples, one can 1) find theories behind them, 2) understand why they exist in the first place, 3) explore the consequences in math and physics. If one takes the Euler number as such an example, then the theory behind...
