ICTP Maths Colloquium 2 October

ICTP is pleased to host an upcoming ICTP Colloquium entitled “On the functional equation of automorphic L-functions.," given by Professor Ngô Bảo Châu. The Colloquium will take place in Euler Lecture Hall at 16:30, and will be followed by light refreshments on the Leonardo Building terrace, weather permitting.

Prof. Châu is the Francis and Rose Yuen Distinguished Service Professor at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Chicago, USA. He recieved the Fields Medal in 2010, the first Vietnamese national to do so. He is best known for proving the fundamental lemma for automorphic forms proposed by Robert Langlands and Diana Shelstad, for the case of unitary groups.

A full biosketch is available here, and more information about Prof. Châu can be found here. We look forward to seeing you at the ICTP Colloquium.
