Langlands Program RAP:
Spring 2002



The RAP will meet 3 times a week, on Mondays and Wednesdays at 3 pm in 441 Altgeld for lectures and on Fridays at 4 pm in 441 Altgeld for discussion.

Participants include Scott Ahlgren, Florin Boca, Michael Bush, Iwan Duursma, Bill Haboush, Wei He, John Jossey, Thomas Kuhnt, Marcin Mazur, Leon McCulloh, Bogdan Petrenko, Charles Rezk, Marco Schlichting, Steve Ullom, Youchiang Yi, and Alexandru Zaharescu.

We will begin by following Gelbart's article from Bull. AMS 10 (1984), no. 2, 177--219. Other useful introductory articles include Ram Murty's article from the volume "Advances in number theory" (Kingston, ON 1991) and Knapp's article from Proc. Sympos. Pure Math. 61. The book by Daniel Bump on "Automorphic forms and representations" (Cambridge Studies in Advanced Math, 55) is also a useful reference.

The first speakers will be: Ahlgren (Hecke theory), Duursma (Artin L-functions), Bush (Tate's thesis), Rezk (automorphic forms as group representations), ...

Some of us may attend the PÉRIODE DE CONCENTRATION SUR LE PROGRAMME DE LANGLANDS POUR LES CORPS DE FONCTION at CRM (Montreal). Also, some may attend the IAS/PCMI Graduate Summer School on Automorphic Forms and Applications. There is also the 16th annual workshop on automorphic forms and related topics.
