Special Year Workshop on p-adic Arithmetic Geometry

Duality Theorems for p-adic Pro-Étale Cohomology of Stein Spaces
Wieslawa Niziol
10:00am|Wolfensohn Hall

Abstract: I will discuss the formulation and sketch the proofs of duality theorems for the geometric and arithmetic p-adic pro-étale cohomology of Stein spaces. This is based on a joint work with Pierre Colmez and Sally Gilles.

Equivariant Log-Concavity and the Hard Lefschetz Theorem
6:00pm|Birch Garden, Simons Hall

What do graph matchings and independent vertex sets have to do with the cohomology of products of projective lines? I will share with you an example in the study of “equivariant log-concavity”, which enriches the notion of log-concavity. By keeping...

A Kirillov Model for Completed Cohomology
Pierre Colmez
12:00pm|Wolfensohn Hall

Abstract: We will explain how to construct a Kirillov model for Emerton's completed cohomology of the tower of modular curves. The trickiest part is to prove injectivity of this model.  This is joint work with Shanwen Wang.

p-adic Analytic Geometry and Chromatic Homotopy Theory
Tomer Schlank
4:30pm|Wolfensohn Hall

Abstract: Chromatic homotopy theory relates certain important questions in homotopy theory to the theory of formal groups. 

Recent advancements in p-adic geometry can be thus used to study questions in homotopy theory. I will discuss how this...

Special Year Workshop on p-adic Arithmetic Geometry

Prismatic Crystals, q-Higgs Modules, and their Cohomology
Takeshi Tsuji
2:30pm|Wolfensohn Hall

Abstract: We study prismatic crystals and their cohomology by using q-Higgs modules (= a q-analogue of p-connections). When the base is lying over the q-crystalline prism, they are locally described in terms of q-Higgs modules and the associated...

Characteristic Classes of Étale Local Systems
12:00pm|Wolfensohn Hall

Abstract: Given an étale Zp-local system of rank n on an algebraic variety X, continuous cohomology classes of the group GLn(Zp) give rise to classes in (absolute) étale cohomology of the variety with coefficients in Qp. These characteristic classes...

The Structure of Translational Tilings in Z^d
10:30am|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

A finite set $F$ in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is a translational tile of  $\mathbb{Z}^d$ if one can cover  $\mathbb{Z}^d$ by translated copies of $F$ without any overlaps, i.e., there exists a translational tiling of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ by $F$.  Suppose that $F$ is...

On the K-theory of Z/p^n
Achim Krause
10:00am|Wolfensohn Hall

Abstract: In recent work with Antieau and Nikolaus we use prismatic cohomology to compute algebraic K-theory of Z/pn and similar rings. Our approach is based on a new description of absolute prismatic cohomology, which can be made completely...

Igusa Stacks and Local-Global Compatibility
Mingjia Zhang
4:30pm|Wolfensohn Hall

Abstract: Recently the work of Fargues--Scholze provides a geometrization of the local Langlands conjecture. It is natural to ask if in this context any form of local-global compatibility can be stated/verified. We discuss some expectations and...
