We report on some recent work with Peter Sarnak. For integers $k$, we consider the affine cubic surfaces $V_k$ given by $M(x) = x_1^2 + x_2 + x_3^2 − x_1 x_2 x_3 = k$. Then for almost all $k$, the Hasse Principle holds, namely that $V_k(Z)$ is non...

Markoff triples are integer solutions of the equation $x^2+y^2+z^2 = 3xyz$ which arose in Markoff's spectacular and fundamental work (1879) on diophantine approximation and has been henceforth ubiquitous in a tremendous variety of different fields...

We will explain how the circle method can be used in the setting of thin orbits, by sketching the proof (joint with Bourgain) of the asymptotic local-global principle for Apollonian circle packings. We will mention extensions of this method due to...

Let $\mathcal G$ be a split reductive group over a $p$-adic field $F$, and $G$ the group of its $F$-points.

The main insight of the local Langlands program is that to every irreducible smooth representation $(\rho, G, V )$ should correspond a...

Harmonic bundles are flat bundles equipped with a pluri-harmonic metric. They are very useful in the study of flat bundles on complex projective manifolds. Indeed, according to the fundamental theorem of Corlette, any semisimple flat bundle on a...

I will give examples and motivations, about the local systems/Higgs bundles correspondence, the case of variations of Hodge structures and the case of irregular singularities. I hope this will help to enjoy the forthcoming lectures of T. Mochizuki...

Let $F$ be a local field with finite residue characteristic $p$, let $C$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and let $\mathbf G$ be a connected reductive $F$-group. With Abe, Henniart, Herzig, we classified irreducible admissible...
