Joint IAS/PU Number Theory

In joint work with Emmanuel Kowalski and Philippe Michel, we prove two different estimates on sums of coefficients of modular forms---one related to L-functions and another to the level of distribution. A key step in the argument is a careful...

I'll outline the construction and computation of a Floer homology theory for contact manifolds which are prequantization spaces over monotone symplectic manifolds, and of the spectral invariants resulting therefrom, and present some applications...

This is joint work with Zhiwei Yun. We prove a generalization of Gross-Zagier formula in the function field setting. Our formula relates self-intersection of certain cycles on the moduli of Shtukas for $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ to higher derivatives of L...

We compare absolute and relative Gromov-Witten invariants with the basic contact vector for very positive divisors. For such divisors, one might expect that these invariants are the same up to a natural multiple. We show that this is indeed the case...

Based on a new decoupling inequality for curves in $\mathbb R^d$, we obtain the essentially optimal form of Vinogradov's mean value theorem in all dimensions (the case $d = 3$ is due to T. Wooley). Various consequences will be mentioned and we will...

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a global field of positive characteristic. In a major breakthrough, Vincent Lafforgue has recently shown how to assign a Langlands parameter to a cuspidal automorphic representation of $G$. The parameter is a...

For a representation of the absolute Galois group of the rationals over a finite field of characteristic $p$, we would like to know if there exists a lift to characteristic zero with nice properties. In particular, we would like it to be geometric...

I will speak about results contained in my article "$G$-torseurs en théorie de Hodge $p$-adique" linked to local class field theory. I will in particular explain the computation of the Brauer group of the curve and why its fundamental class is the...

Given the $p$-adic Galois representation associated to a regular algebraic polarized cuspidal automorphic representation, one naturally obtains a pure weight zero representation called its adjoint representation. Because it has weight zero, a...

Venkatesh has recently proposed a fascinating conjecture relating motivic cohomology with automorphic forms and the cohomology of arithmetic groups. I'll describe this conjecture, and discuss its connections with the local geometry of eigenvarieties...
