AbstractThe goal of this minicourse is to introduce the recent advances in Hodge theory via o-minimal techniques. We will start by revisiting the basics on o-minimal geometry with a view towards algebraization theorems (Pila-Wilkie counting theorem; o-minimal Chow and GAGA theorems in definable complex analytic geometry). In the realm of Hodge theory, we will explore several applications: (i) t...
Abstract:In 1981, Drinfeld enumerated the number of irreducible l-adic local systems of rank two on a projective smooth curve fixed by the Frobenius endomorphism. Interestingly, this number looks like the number of points on a variety over a finite field. Deligne proposed conjectures to extend and comprehend Drinfeld's result. By the Langlands correspondence, it is equivalent to count certain ...
