How Crystals Grow Inside Solids
6:00pm|Dilworth Room

Most metals and ceramics are composed of many individual crystals fused together. Foams are composed of many individual bubbles. In both cases, as time passes, the picture evolves and coarsens. The average size of a crystal or a bubble increases....

Symmetry of the Hitchin Fibration
10:30am|S-101

I will describe the construction the symmetries of the Hitchin fibration and the way in which the endoscopic groups appear in the variation of these symmetry groups.

On Geometric Stabilization
10:30am|S-101

I will formulate the geometric interpretation of the stabilization of (a part) of the geometric side of the trace formula for Lie algebra. The SL(2) case will be discussed in some details.

On the Fundamental Lemma for Weighted Orbital Integrals
10:30am|S-101

The first half of this talk will be devoted to describing Arthur's variant of the fundamental lemma for weighted orbital integrals. The second half will discuss a proof of the weighted fundamental lemma for Sp(4).

Moduli of Metaplectic Bundles on Curves and Theta-Sheaves
10:30am|S-101

We give a geometric analog of the Weil representation of the metaplectic group, placing it in the framework of the geometric Langlands program. For a smooth projective curve X we introduce an algebraic stack \tilde\Bun_G of metaplectic bundles on X...

Equivariant Homology of Affine Springer Fibers
10:30am|S-101

I will attempt to summarize the results in the following two papers, jointly written with R. Kottwitz and R. MacPherson: "Equivariant cohomology, Koszul duality, and the localization theorem" (Inv. Math., 1998) and "Homology of affine Springer...

The Fundamental Lemma and Change of Characteristic (following Waldspurger)
10:30am|S-101

In a recent article, Waldspurger proved that the fundamental lemma for Lie algebras doesn't depend on the characteristic of the base field (among other things...). In this talk, I would like to explain some ideas of the proof of that result.

Fundamental Lemma
11:00am|S-101

In a series of lectures, I will discuss the proof of Langlands-Shelstad's fundamental lemma for Lie algebra. An overview will be given in the first lecture. In the following lectures, I will focuse on certain aspects of the geometry of the Hitchin...

The Completed Cohomology of Arithmetic Groups
Frank Calegari
1:30pm|S-101

The cohomology of arithmetic groups (with real coefficients) is usually understood in terms of automorphic forms. Such methods, however, fail (at least naively) to capture information about torsion classes in integral cohomology. We discuss a...

Local-Global Compatibility in the p-Adic Langlands Program for GL(2) over Q
Matthew Emerton
2:15pm|West Bldg. Lecture Hall

I will outline the proof of various cases of the local-global compatibility statement alluded to in the title, and also explain its applications to the Fontaine—Mazur conjecture, and to a conjecture of Kisin.

The Fundamental Curve of p-Adic Hodge Theory
2:15pm|S-101

Let $\overline K$ be an algebraic closure of a $p$-adic field $K$. We construct a separated noetherian regular scheme $X$ (nonalgebraic) equipped with an action of $G_K=\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{K}/K)$. We have $H^0(X, O_X) = Q_p$ and $H_1(X, O_X) = 0$...

Let p be an odd prime number and let F be a totally real field. Let F_cyc be the cyclotomic extension of F generated by the roots of unity of order a power of p . From the maximal abelian extension of F_cyc which is unramified (resp. unramified...

Non-abelian Lubin-Tate Theory Modulo $\ell$

Let p and l be two distinct prime numbers, and fix a positive integer d . I will explain how the F_l-cohomology complex of the Lubin-Tate tower of height d of a p-adic field K realizes mod l versions of both the semi-simple Langlands correspondence...
