Title Integer-valued polynomials and p-adic Fourier theory
Speaker, Affiliation Prof. Dr. Laurent Berger, ENS de Lyon
Date, Time 27 February 2026, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract Let K be a finite extension of Qp and let o_K be its ring of integers. The theory of Lubin-Tate formal groups allows us to construct many integer-valued polynomials on o_K. To what extent do these polynomials generate all integer-valued polynomials on o_K? I will explain some results of de Shalit and Iceland, as well as of Ardakov, Sprang and myself on this question. I will also explain the motivation (p-adic Fourier theory) for our results.

Title Automorphic period and sum of L-values
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Weixiao Lu, Institut de Mathématique de Marseille
Date, Time 13 March 2026, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract The relative Langlands duality posed by Ben-Zvi-Sakellaridis-Venkatesh predicts that periods of automorphic form can sometimes equal to sum of several special values of automorphic L-functions rather than a single one. In this talk, I will present explicit evidence for this phenomenon. I will discuss families of automorphic periods on general linear groups and classical groups that are designed to detect specific types of Eisenstein series. These periods indeed evaluate to finite sums of L-values. This is joint work with Guodong Xi.

Title Multiple polylogarithms and the Steinberg module
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Danylo Radchenko, IHES
Date, Time 20 March 2026, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract I will talk about a surprising connection between the space of multiple polylogarithms on a d-dimensional algebraic torus, and the Steinberg representation of GL_d(Q). I will show how this leads to several new identities for multiple polylogarithms, implying, in paricular, that all polylogarithms can be expressed using polylogarithms of the form Li_{m,1,...,1}. The talk is based on a recent joint work with Steven Charlton and Daniil Rudenko.

Title The arithmetic of Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms on G2
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Aleksander Horawa, University of Bonn
Date, Time 27 March 2026, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract In 1973, Shimura discovered a way to associate a holomorphic half-integral weight modular form h with a classical cusp form f. Subsequently, in the 1980s, Waldspurger proved a remarkable formula relating squares of the Fourier coefficients of h and quadratic twists of L-values of f. In the spirit of these results, we prove that one can associate "quaternionic" modular forms on the group G2 with dihedral cusp forms f, whose Fourier coefficients are explicitly related to cubic twists of L-values of f. This gives the first examples where a conjecture of Gross from 2000 has been fully verified. (Joint work with Petar Bakić, Siyan Daniel Li-Huerta, and Naomi Sweeting.)
