|
| This school is jointly organized by the Mathematics Department of the University Paris 11 and the IHES. It is open to all, subject to availability, but is more specifically aimed towards doctoral students and post-docs from Asia. Its purpose is to make accessible some recent developments in algebraic geometry and number theory, and to stimulate contacts between young researchers from Asia, France and Europe. |
|
| We have available some funding from several sources specifically intended for traveling and/or local expenses of participants from India, Japan, Korea, People's Republic of China and Hong-Kong, Taiwan, and Vietnam. |
|
|
Lectures and seminars will take place at IHES, from
Monday July 17th (8:30) till Saturday July 29th (12:30)
|
|
Lectures will be given in the morning (two lectures of 90 minutes each, every morning, from monday till saturday), with two series of lectures every week, on the following topics:
|
|
Week 1 : |
| |
1 - Laurent LAFFORGUE (IHÉS) :
Formes automorphes et fonctorialité de Langlands |
|
|
|
2 - Takeshi SAITO (Tokyo University) :
Galois representations and modular forms |
|
|
| Week 2 : |
|
3 - Marc LEVINE (Northeastern University, Boston) :
Mixed motives and homotopy theory of schemes |
|
|
|
4 - Báo Châu NGÔ (Université Paris 11) :
Introduction to Shimura varieties |
|
|
|
Every afternoon, from monday till friday, a seminar will be organized,
in which various developments will be discussed, during two one-hour
talks. The following experts have already accepted to organize one of
these afternoon seminars: |
|
| |
- Yves André (CNRS, ENS Paris)
- Laurent Clozel (Paris 11)
- Philippe Gille (CNRS, Paris 11)
- Michael Harris (Paris 7)
- Bruno Kahn (CNRS, Paris 7)
- Maxim Kontsevich (IHÉS)
- François Loeser (ENS Paris)
- Jörg Wildeshaus (Paris 13). |
|
|
|
| Supplementary courses on more basic topics and question sessions might also be organized if needed. |
|
|
|
|
| Applications are closed since Sunday March 26th. |
|
| Answers to the applications will be sent at the end of April. When confirming their inscription, participants will be asked to pay a registration fee of 40 euros, due to cover the lecture notes which will be distributed during the school and the coffee breaks. |
|
| As indicated above, specific funding will be available for participants from India, Japan, Korea, People's Republic of China and Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Vietnam. Beside filling the application form online, students from these countries who are not yet in touch with the relevant member of the organizing committee, as precised in the table below, are asked also to send him a message: |
|
|
|
|
| For the time being, no funding is available for students from other countries. Students from the European Union are strongly invited to ask for financial support from the European Network they are possibly affiliated to (Arithmetic
Algebraic Geometry, Modnet). |
|
However all participants might be housed, subject to availability, in the "résidence universitaire" (dormitory) in the campus de l'université Paris 11- Orsay, at walking distance from IHES and the train station "RER Bures-sur-Yvette". The rental for one room during the two weeks of the summer school will be 100 euros.
|
|
|
| Besides, on this campus, participants will have access to the library of the Mathematics department, and to a reasonably priced cafetaria for lunch. |
|

- "Arithmetic Algebraic Geometry" European Network
- Centre Sino-Français de Mathématiques
- Chern Institute of Mathematics (Nankai University)
- Institut Franco-Indien de Mathématiques
- Institut Universitaire de France
- Japan Society for the Promotion of Science
