Topic: 

Preservation of depth in local geometric Langlands program

Description: 

Local geometric Langlands program aims to establish a relationship between representations of the Galois group of a local field and irreducible representations of the dual group. It is expected that, under mild conditions, this correspondence preserves depths of representations. In this talk, I will explain the geometric analogue of this expectation, in the framework of Frenkel-Gaitsgory's local geometric Langlands correspondence. Based on a joint project with Tsao-Hsien Chen:  http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.0598
