Title: The arithmetic fundamental lemma for p-adic fields
Date & Time: 9:00am – 10:30am, June 4, 2020 (Beijing Time)
Abstract: The arithmetic fundamental lemma (AFL) is a conjectural identity relating the arithmetic intersection numbers on a Rapoport-Zink space for unitary groups to the first derivative of relative orbital integral on the general linear groups over a p-adic field F. The AFL was proved in the case F=Q_p about one year ago. In this talk I will report a work in progress joint with A. Mihatsch to prove the AFL for a general p-adic field.
This is an online lecture through Zoom and Tencent Meeting.
