Title Kato explicit reciprocity law for Siegel modular forms of weight 3,3
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Francesco Lemma, Université Paris Cité
Date, Time 23 February 2024, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract In a series of papers, Loeffler-Zerbes and their collaborators constructed a non-zero Euler system for Siegel modular forms, providing the first evidence for the BSD conjecture for abelian surfaces of rank 0. I will present a proof of the non-triviality of the Euler system for the minimal cohomological weight by the generalized explicit reciprocity law for the critical twist, following Kato. This is a joint work with Tadashi Ochiai (Tokyo Institute of Technology).

Title On the distribution of class groups — beyond Cohen-Lenstra and Gerth
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Yuan Liu, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
Date, Time 1 March 2024, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract The Cohen-Lenstra heuristic studies the distribution of the p-part of the class group of quadratic number fields for odd prime p, and Gerth’s conjecture regards the distribution of the 2-part of the class group of quadratic fields. The main difference between these two conjectures is that while the (odd) p-part of class group behaves completely “randomly”, the 2-part of class group does not since the 2-torsion of the class group is controlled by the genus field. In this talk, we will discuss a new conjecture generalizing Cohen-Lenstra and Gerth’s conjectures. The techniques involve Galois cohomology and embedding problems of global fields. If time permits, we will also discuss how to prove a function field analog of this new conjecture, by counting points on the Hurwitz spaces.

Title Multiplicative functions and applications
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Efthymios Sofos, University of Glasgow
Date, Time 8 March 2024, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract I will discuss some new results on averages of multiplicative functions over integer sequences from arXiv:2402.08710. We will then give applications to Cohen-Lenstra and Manin's conjecture. Joint work with Chan, Koymans and Pagano.

Title Weak weak approximation for del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Rosa Winter, King's College London
Date, Time 15 March 2024, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract Del Pezzo surfaces are classified by their degree d, and integer between 1and 9. The lower the degree, the more arithmetically complex these surfaces are. It is generally believed that, if a del Pezzo surface has one rational point, then it has many, and that they are well-distributed. After giving an overview of different notions of ‘many’ rational points and what is known so far for del Pezzo surfaces, I will focus on joint work with Julian Demeio and Sam Streeter where we prove weak weak approximation for del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2 with a general point.
