The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters awarded the Abel Prize for 2003 to Jean-Pierre SERRE, Collège de France. Jean-Pierre SERRE will attend and talk at the annual meeting of the Danish Mathematical Society.
Please complete the form below to register for the meeting.
| 13.15 | Opening by the chairman of the Danish Mathematical Society Johan P. Hansen |
| 13.15 -14.15 | Jean-Pierre Serre, Collège de France. Counting points modulo p on algebraic varieties Abstract: An introduction to counting points mod p on algebraic varieties, starting from Chasles correspondence formula, and ending up with Grothendieck and Deligne. |
| 14.30-15.30 | Ib Madsen, University of Aarhus Cohomology of the moduli space of riemann surfaces Abstract: The moduli space of Riemann surfaces of a given topological type F is closely related to the mapping class group of the surface F. I will explain how one can calculate the stable cohomology of the mapping class group, and in particular prove a conjecture due to D.Mumford. |
| 15.30-16.00 | Coffee break |
| 16.00-17.00 | Henrik Schlichtkrull, University of Copenhagen Fourier theory for symmetric spaces Abstract: A symmetric space is a homogeneous space G/H of a Lie group G with a subgroup H, which is the group of fixed points for a involution of G. I will describe some results of harmonic analysis on reductive symmetric spaces, in particular a Paley-Wiener type theorem, which describes the image by the Fourier transform of some spaces of compactly supported functions on G/H (smooth functions and generalized functions). |
| 17.15-18.15 | Tage Bai Andersen, University of Aarhus, and Kjeld
Bagger Laursen, University of Copenhagen Udfordninger for matematikuddannelserne set i lyset af gymnasie- og universitetsreformer |
| Dinner will be arranged afterwards Please register for this above |
