Arf lecture to be delivered by Sutherland
Oct 13, 2022Middle East Technical UniversityCollaboration PI Andrew Sutherland will deliver the 2022 Arf lecture at the Middle East Technical University in Ankara, Turkey. He will speak on Diophantine computations including recent work on Mordell’s 1953 question on integral solutions to x3+y3+z3=3.

Sutherland to speak at Mordell 2022
Aug 15 - 19, 2022Cambridge, UKCollaboration PI Andrew Sutherland and affiliated researchers Joseph Silverman and Jan Vonk will speak at the Mordell 2022 conference at University of Cambridge. “2022 marks the centenary of Mordell’s 1922 paper On the Rational Solutions of the Indeterminate Equations of the Third and Fourth Degrees, in which Mordell both established the foundational result in the arithmetic of elliptic curves (finite generation of rational points), and proposed what later became Mordell’s Conjecture (and subsequently Faltings’ Theorem).”

Special session organized by collaboration members
Apr 11 - 15, 2022ZoomCollaboration members Eran Assaf, Edgar Costa, Brendan Hassett, and David Roe are organizing a lecture series Explicit Methods in Modularity April 11-15, 2022. This originated from an AMS special session planned for the Seattle Joint Mathematics Meetings.
-
Modular curves week at MIT
Mar 21 - 25, 2022Several members of the collaboration, including PIs Jennifer Balakrishnan and Andrew Sutherland, and research scientists Eran Assaf, Edgar Costa, David Lowry-Duda, and David Roe, are beginning a push to develop a database of modular curves, their geometric invariants and rational points.

Infrastructure Week: Hilbert Modular Forms at Dartmouth
Feb 21 - 25, 2022Dartmouth, NHCollaboration PI John Voight is leading a focus week on Hilbert Modular Forms, emphasizing computational techniques and databases.
-
Simons Collaboration Annual Meeting
Jan 13 - 14, 2022The 2022 Simons Collaboration on Arithmetic Geometry, Number Theory and Computation Annual Meeting will focus on the following themes:
- Development and organization of software and databases supporting research in number theory and arithmetic geometry
- Fundamental research in arithmetic geometry inspired by computation and leading to new algorithms
- Explorations of L-functions, modular forms, and Galois representations with elegant and unusual properties
Talks will present contributions from members of the collaboration and work by leading experts that may inspire future developments. Note: This was abbreviated to a virtual session due to the Omicron surge.
