Functoriality and Reciprocity
A variant of the usual supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model is described, governing maps from a Riemann surface Σ to an arbitrary almost complex manifold M . It possesses a fermionic BRST-like symmetry, conserved for arbitrary Σ, and obeying Q = 0. In a suitable version, the quantum ground states are the 1+1 dimensional Floer groups. The correlation functions of the BRST-invariant operators are...
متن کاملLanglands Functoriality Conjecture
Functoriality conjecture is one of the central and influential subjects of the present day mathematics. Functoriality is the profound lifting problem formulated by Robert Langlands in the late 1960s in order to establish nonabelian class field theory. In this expository article, I describe the Langlands-Shahidi method, the local and global Langlands conjectures and the converse theorems which a...
متن کاملWhere Stands Functoriality Today?
The notion of functoriality arose from the spectral analysis of automorphic forms but its definition was informed by two major theories: the theory of class fields as created by Hilbert, Takagi, and Artin and others; and the representation theory of semisimple Lie groups in the form given to it by Harish-Chandra. In both theories the statements are deep and general and the proofs difficult, hig...
متن کاملFunctoriality in Geometric Data
This report provides an overview of the talks at the Dagstuhl Seminar 17021 “Functoriality in Geometric Data”. The seminar brought together researchers interested in the fundamental questions of similarity and correspondence across geometric data sets, which include collections of GPS traces, images, 3D shapes and other types of geometric data. A recent trend, emerging independently in multiple...
متن کاملThe Principle of Functoriality
Following the explicit instructions of the organizers, I have tried to write an article that is suitable for a general mathematical audience. It contains some analogies and metaphors that might even be put to nonmathematicians. I hope that experts will be tolerant of the inevitable simplifications. The principle of functoriality is one of the central questions of present day mathematics. It is ...
