历经三十年的努力,数学家已经成功证明了一个名为「朗兰兹纲领(Langlands program)」的宏大数学愿景的主要部分。 一个由 9 位数学家组成的团队成功证明了几何朗兰兹猜想(Geometric Langlands Conjecture),这是现代数学领域涉及范围最广的范式之一。 马克斯・ ...
The Langlands program provides a beautifully intricate set of connections between various areas of mathematics, pointing the way toward novel solutions for old problems. Not long ago, I was asked to ...
The Langlands program has inspired and befuddled mathematicians for more than 50 years. A major advance has now opened up new worlds for them to explore One of the biggest stories in science has been ...
“I am now elderly and have turned my efforts to other things – just a reading, in the original – of the very long (four volume) Turkish novel, Bir Ada Hikayesi,” mathematician Robert Langlands, now 87 ...
The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters will award the Abel Prize for 2018 to Robert Langlands for work he did while an associate professor at Princeton University. Langlands, now an emeritus ...
For a few months now, the mathematical world has been abuzz. Rumors abound of a new proof, monumental in length and virtually ...
Two fascinating narratives are interwoven in Love and Math, one mathematical, the other personal. The love that Edward Frenkel alludes to in his title is the passion stirred in the mathematical heart ...
The Langlands program explores a fruitful, but mysterious relation between natural objects of two seemingly unrelated areas of mathematics, namely arithmetic of varieties and harmonic analysis. It is ...
A new magnum opus posits the existence of a hidden mathematical link akin to the connection between electricity and magnetism. In 2018, as he prepared to be awarded the Fields Medal, math’s highest ...
