Small Talk about Modular Forms

Speaker: |
Kalin Kostadinov (Boston University)

Abstract: |
You've heard about them a hundred times. You've also been puzzled
by notions like G(N) and Xo(11). Now you have the chance to learn
about them all starting from scratch, i.e. from the upper half plane,
then folding it into a modular curve inhabited with modular forms
which move around under the action of Hecke operators.
Did I lost you on the last sentence? Don't worry. No previous knowledge of math required beyond the standard courses in calculus and linear algebra. |
