Topic:
Toward a geometric construction of local reciprocity
Description:
Abstract
In this talk I will explain how to convert any smooth character of
Gm(K), where K is any non-Archimedean local field, into a local system
on a group scheme naturally attached to Gm_K. In the tradition of the
seminar, this is the first of of a series of informal talks.
Joint work with David Roe, PIMS PDF at the University of Calgary and the University of Washington.
