Title: The Adeles over Q
Abstract: In this talk, I plan to introduce the adeles over Q by first discussing the field of p-adic numbers and how we can define p-adic integration. Following this, we will build up some familiar machinery such as the Fourier transform and the Poisson summation formula, but in the language of adeles. Time permitting, we will then consider automorphic forms for the general linear group of degree 1 over the adeles.
Spectral Theory Reading Seminar
Time: 4:10PM - 5:00PM
Location: Bloc 624
Speaker: James Oquinn, TAMU
Title: Rotational C*-algebras and Their Representations
Abstract: During this talk, I will introduce rotational C*-algebras and establish the role they play in the Choi, Elliot, and Yui paper. I will also discuss some of the theory of the representations of these C*-algebras, as well as their projections, so that their K-theory can be developed in subsequent talks.
