This conference, jointly funded by MSRI and the Clay Mathematics Institute, will bring together researchers on many aspects of the arithmetic applications of modular (and automorphic) forms. This is currently a very broad and very active subject. Our intention is to encourage interaction between those working in different sub-disciplines. To this end it is hoped to limit lectures to 4 hours a day, allowing plenty of time for informal interactions. On Tuesday, July 1, 2008 at 7pm there will be a dinner to honor Ken Ribet on his 60th birthday. Speaker List:
| Matthew Baker Joel Bellaiche Kevin Buzzard Frank Calegari Robert Coleman Samit Dasgupta Matthew Emerton Johan de Jong Benedict Gross David Helm Nicholas Katz Mark Kisin Elena Mantovan Barry Mazur Loic Merel Bjorn Poonen William Stein Marie-France Vigneras | Links to 500KB PDF file |
