Special cycles for unitary Shtukas and modularity

NUMBER THEORY

November 3, 2021      3:00 pm
Speaker: Zhiwei Yun - MIT

We define a generating series of algebraic cycles on the moduli stack of unitary Shtukas and conjecture that it is a Chow-group valued automorphic form. This is a function field...

p-adic Heights of the arithmetic diagonal cycles

NUMBER THEORY

October 27, 2021      3:00 pm
Speaker: Wei Zhang - MIT

This is a work in progress joint with Daniel Disegni. We formulate a p-adic analogue of the Arithmetic Gan--Gross--Prasad conjecture for unitary groups, relating the p-adic height pairing of the...

The plectic conjecture over local fields

NUMBER THEORY

October 13, 2021      3:00 pm
Speaker: Siyan Daniel Li-Huerta - Harvard University

The étale cohomology of varieties over Q enjoys a Galois action. In the case of Hilbert modular varieties, Nekovář-Scholl observed that this Galois action on the level of cohomology extends...

Density of arithmetic Hodge loci

NUMBER THEORY

September 29, 2021      3:00 pm
Speaker: Salim Tayou - Harvard University

I will explain a conjecture on density of arithmetic Hodge loci which includes and generalizes several recent density results of these loci in arithmetic geometry. This conjecture has also analogues...

Finitely Presented Groups in Arithmetic Geometry

NUMBER THEORY

September 15, 2021      3:00 pm
Speaker: Mark Shusterman - Harvard University

We discuss the problem of determining the number of generators and relations of several profinite groups of arithmetic and geometric origin. These include etale fundamental groups of smooth projective varieties,...
