Lethbridge Number Theory and Combinatorics Seminar
Date: February 10, 2020
Time: 12:00-12:50pm
Lecturer(s): Amir Akbary (University of Lethbridge)
Location: University of Lethbridge, W561 University Hall
Topic: Reciprocity Laws
Description:
The Artin reciprocity law provides a solution to Hilbert's ninth problem (9. Proof of the Most General Law of Reciprocity in any Number Field). In this talk, we provide an exposition of this theorem with emphasis on its relation with the classical law of quadratic reciprocity and describe its motivating role in the far-reaching Langlands Reciprocity Conjecture.
