Abstract

Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture is one of the most famous and important problem in pure math, which predicts deep relations between several invariants of elliptic curves defined over number fields. In 1980s, Beilinson, Bloch, and Kato proposed a vast generalization of this conjecture to motives over number fields. In this talk, we will survey results in recent years concerning Beilinson-Bloch-Kato conjectures, and explain major ingredients in their proofs.

Modern Mathematics Lecture Series | Minimal surfaces and randomness
AbstractMinimal surfaces are surfaces which locally minimize the area, and they are ubiquitous in Differential Geometry. After giving a short and biased survey on constructions of minimal surfaces, I will discuss a recent paper connecting minimal surfaces in spheres and random matrix theory. The main statement is that there exists a sequence of closed minimal surfaces in Euclidean spheres, cons...
