"An Introduction to Geometric Langlands"

We will begin with a discussion of the origin of the Langlands program in number theory, which is class field theory. Then we will give an introduction to the geometric Langlands conjecture. We will show Deligne's proof of the simplest case, which is the statement for GL(1).

This seminar will be held both online and in person:
