MATH-417: Number theory II.b - selected topicsThis year's topic is "Additive combinatorics and applications." We will introduce various methods from additive combinatorics, establish the sum-product theorem over finite fields and derive various a
MATH-488: Topology IV.a -Algebraic K-theoryAlgebraic K-theory, which to any ring R associates a sequence of groups, can be viewed as a theory of linear algebra over an arbitrary ring. We will study in detail the first two of these groups and a
MATH-643: Applied l-adic cohomologyIn this course we will describe in numerous examples how methods from l-adic cohomology as developed by Grothendieck, Deligne and Katz can interact with methods from analytic number theory (prime numb
