This article is a Bourbaki seminar report on Ngo Bao Chau's proof of the fundamental lemma. About thirty years ago, R. P. Langlands conjectured a collection of identities to hold among integrals over conjugacy classes in reductive groups.…

These notes give a statement of the "fundamental lemma," which is a conjectural identity between p-adic integrals that arises as part of the Langlands program.

We consider from a geometric point of view the conjectural fundamental lemma of Langlands and Shelstad for unitary groups over a local field of positive characteristic. We introduce projective algebraic varieties over the finite residue…

The Geometrical Lemma is a classical result in the theory of (complex) smooth representations of $p$-adic reductive groups, which helps to analyze the parabolic restriction of a parabolically induced representation by providing a filtration…

In August 2010, Ngo Bao Chau was awarded a Fields Medal for his deep work relating the Hitchin fibration to the Arthur-Selberg trace formula, and in particular for his proof of the Fundamental Lemma for Lie algebras. This article gives a…

This paper explores relations between two separate worlds. They are the algebraic geometry of Alexander Grothendieck and the automorphic representation theory of Robert Langlands. The relation between them would be a very broad example of…

Let G be an unramified reductive group over a non archimedian local field F. The so-called "Langlands Fundamental Lemma" is a family of conjectural identities between orbital integrals for G(F) and orbital integrals for endoscopic groups of…

We verify new cases of the Arithmetic Fundamental Lemma (AFL) of Wei Zhang. This relies on a recursive algorithm which allows, under certain conditions, to reduce the AFL identity in question to an AFL identity in lower dimension. The main…

This paper explores the ontological and epistemological foundations of Lev Landau's theoretical physics through the lens of his unpublished philosophical notes and scientific practice. We identify a unique form of geometric reductionism…

In this paper we prove motivic versions of the Langlands-Shelstad Fundamental Lemma and Ng\^o's Geometric Stabilization. To achieve this, we follow the strategy from the recent proof by Groechenig, Wyss and Ziegler which avoided the use of…

We formalize the Gauss-Landau theorem, providing a unified prime factorization approach to computing the GCD and LCM of finite nonzero integer sets. Although commonly used as a heuristic or technique in elementary number theory education,…

The Langlands Program relates Galois representations and automorphic representations of reductive algebraic groups. The trace formula is a powerful tool in the study of this connection and the Langlands Functoriality Conjecture. After…

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra can be thought of as a statement about the real numbers as a space, considered as an algebraic set over the real numbers as a field. This paper introduces what it means for an algebraic set or affine…

There is a contemporary trend toward geometrizing all mathematical theories, as proposed by the Langlands program, and, by extension, physical theories as well. Within this paradigm, it becomes possible to represent physical objects as…

The Lie algebra gl(lambda) dependent on the complex parameter lambda is a continuous version of the Lie algebra gl(inf) of infinite matrices with only finite number of nonzero entries. The gl(lambda) was first introduced by B.L.Feigin in…
