Seminario Prof. Eyal Goren

Nell’ambito delle attività del Dottorato in Matematica, il Prof EYAL GOREN dell’Università McGill, Montreal – Canada terrà un seminario su “Recent developments in the theory of complex multiplication” presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell’Università degli Studi di Milano Via C. Saldini n.50 – Milano

Abstract Our story begins more than a century ago with Kronecker’s Jugendtraum and Hilbert’s 12th problem, where complex multiplication appears as a way to understand Galois extensions of number fields – a problem still at the heart of number theory. Our lecture will have a strong historical flavour; we shall attempt to survey the development of the theory of complex multiplication and the philosophy behind it. On this background, we will present some exciting recent results, some of which build in an essential way on Borcherds’ theory. Finally, we shall sketch some of the key challenges of the theory of complex multiplication today and future directions.

Calendario Lunedì 27 giugno 2011, dalle ore 17.00 alle 19.00, presso la Sala di Rappresentanza
