Announcement 1.0
Conference on Automorphic Forms and Related Geometry:
Assessing the Legacy of I. I. Piatetski-Shapiro
Yale University, New Haven CT
23 - 27 April, 2012
I. I. Piatetski-Shapiro, who passed away on 21 February 2009, was a leading
figure in the theory of automorphic forms. The conference will attempt both to
synthesize the progress made by Piatetski-Shapiro and co-workers, and to
promote future work by identifying fruitful directions of further
investigation.

The conference is organized around five themes reflecting Piatetski-Shapiro's
work and with promise for future development. In each area, some talks will
review and summarize the current state of affairs , and other talks will report
on current work and outline promising avenues for continued progress. The five
themes are:
i) Functoriality and converse theorems
ii) Explicit constructions and periods
iii) P-adic L-functions
iv) Geometry
v) Analytic number theory
Young researchers (graduate students and postdoctoral fellows) are encouraged
to attend, and are invited to apply for funds available for defraying costs.
This can be done as part of the registration process.

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1200 mathematicians worldwide.
At http://listserv.utk.edu/archives/geometry.html there are many functions available, including checking the archives since November 2005, changing your e-mail address or preferences, and joining/leaving the list. If you have problems that cannot be resolved at this website, send a message to [log in to unmask]
Before sending an announcement, please carefully read the following. Any announcements that are *not* about conferences (e.g. those about jobs, journals, books, etc.) will be rejected by the moderator without comment. To announce a geometry or closely related conference, send the announcement (including a conference web site if possible) to [log in to unmask] The moderator cannot edit your message; list members will receive the announcement as an e-mail from you EXACTLY as you submitted it. For example, if your submission starts with "Please post this on the geometry list" then your conference announcement will also begin with that statement. In order to keep down the volume of e-mail, only TWO announcements per conference will be approved by the moderator. The "subject" of your message should include the name of the conference and the number (first or second) of the announcement, e.g. Gauss Memorial Lectures in Geometry: Second Announcement. Please check that your announcement (especially the website) is correct. Corrections will be approved only in the most critical situations, e.g. if corrected information is not available on the website. If you send a submission from an e-mail address that is not subscribed to the geometry list then you will be sent an e-mail asking for confirmation. This feature is designed to thwart the hundreds of machine-generated spam that are sent to the list and would otherwise have to be manually blocked by the moderator.
The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
