Title:
Shimura varieties, perfectoid spaces and torsion classes
Abstract: The goal of this mini-course is to describe Shimura varieties from the point of view of p-adic analytic geometry and p-adic Hodge theory. I will focus on the geometry of the Hodge-Tate period morphism, which reduces us to understanding a much simpler geometric object, the associated flag variety. I will start by giving some background on Scholze’s proof that Siegel modular varieties with infinite p-power level are perfectoid and on the construction of the Hodge-Tate period morphism in this case. I will then explain how to extend the Hodge-Tate period morphism to Shimura varieties of Hodge type, how to define a Newton stratification on the flag variety, and how to compute the fibers of the morphism over individual Newton strata. I will end by explaining how the Hodge-Tate period morphism can be used to understand torsion classes in the cohomology of Shimura varieties or more general locally symmetric spaces. The mini-course will rely primarily on joint work with Peter Scholze.

Title: Geometrization of the local Langlands correspondence
Abstract: In these talks I will give an introduction to my geometrization conjecture of the local Langlands correspondence. I will focus on the GL_1 case explaining how one can use geometric Langlands techniques to prove the conjecture in this case giving a new proof of local class field theory. I will try to state the conjecture in its full generality at the end.

Title: Intersection numbers and higher derivatives of L-functions for function fields
Abstract: In joint work with Wei Zhang, we prove a higher derivative analogue of the Waldspurger formula and the Gross-Zagier formula in the function field setting under some unramifiedness assumptions. Our formula relates the self-intersection number of certain cycles on the moduli of Shtukas for GL(2) to higher derivatives of automorphic L-functions for GL(2). In the first talk, I will give motivation and the statement of the formula;  in the second talk, I will explain some geometric ideas in the proof of the formula.

Title: Introduction to the Colmez conjecture
Abstract: The goal of this series of talks is to present some recent developments of the Colmez conjecture about Faltings heights of abelian varieties with complex multiplication. In the first talk, I will introduce the Colmez conjecture, including its averaged version recently proved by Yuan--Zhang and Andreatta--Goren--Howard--Madapusi-Pera. In the second talk, I will introduce the application of the averaged Colmez conjecture to the Andre--Oort conjecture by Tsimerman. In the third talk, I will sketch the proof of the averaged Colmez conjecture by Yuan--Zhang.
