There has been quite a lot of recent work in additive combinatorics seeking to develop our understanding of the 'higher Fourier analysis' suggested by the work of Gowers on Szemeredi's theorem and the work of various ergodic theorists (Host, Kra...

In 1977 Szemeredi proved that any subset of the integers of positive density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progression. A couple of years later Furstenberg gave an ergodic theoretic proof for Szemeredi's theorem. At around the same time...

I will discuss some aspects of the proof of (most of) the unramified geometric Langlands duality conjecture for GL(n) by Gaitsgory (based on his work with Frenkel, Vilonen etc), and also the work in the direction of local tamely ramified duality.

Very recently, J.Y. Welschinger introduced a set of invariants for real varieties that give lower bounds on the number of real algebraic curves satisfying certain incidence relations. After J. Solomon's homological interpretation, these invariants...
