The London-Paris Number Theory Seminar meets twice per year, once in London and once in Paris.
London organizers: David Burns, Fred Diamond, Minhyong Kim, Alexei Skorobogatov, Andrei Yafaev.
Paris organizers: Michael Harris, Guy Henniart, Marc Hindry, Ariane Mezard, Jacques Tilouine.
The 7th meeting will take place on Monday 16th November 2009 in Paris.
Schedule:
| 11.00-12.00 | Matthew Emerton (Northwestern University, Evanston, USA) On the ordinary part of cohomology Abstract: In this talk I will explain the relationship between the p-adically completed cohomology groups associated to reductive groups over Q and the ordinary part of cohomology as introduced by Hida and studied by him and others. The connection is provided by the functor of ordinary parts and its derived functors, and I will review these notions. I will also explain a general duality property for the functor of ordinary parts, which when applied in the context of p-adically completed cohomology, gives Poincare duality for the ordinary part of cohomology. | |
| 2.00-3.00 | Alexei Skorobogatov (Imperial College, London, UK) On the Brauer group of K3 surfaces | |
| 3.30-4.30 | Sinnou David (Université Pierre et Marie Curie Paris 6, France) Rational points on subvarieties of semi-abelian varieties: an overview |
Some travel funds are available for UK participants. Please contact Andrei Yafaev as soon as possible if you are interested in attending.
