A connection between the scaling limit of the field and elliptic homogenization was introduced more than twenty years ago by Naddaf and Spencer. In joint work with Wei Wu, we take another look at their ideas in light of recent work in quantitative homogenization.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Working Seminar in Algebraic Number Theory<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Topic: The map to K2 without symbols<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Speaker: Askhay Venkatesh, Professor, School of Mathematics<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Time/Room: 2:15pm - 4:15pm/Simonyi Hall 101<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=FR>Abstract Link: </span><a href="http://www.math.ias.edu/seminars/abstract?event=140055"><span lang=FR>http://www.math.ias.edu/seminars/abstract?event=140055</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=FR><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=FR><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Joint IAS/Princeton University Number Theory Seminar<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Topic: Local aspects of Venkatesh's thesis.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Speaker: Yiannis Sakellaridis, Rutgers University<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Time/Room: 4:30pm - 5:30pm/Simonyi Hall 101<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=FR>Abstract Link: </span><a href="http://www.math.ias.edu/seminars/abstract?event=139912"><span lang=FR>http://www.math.ias.edu/seminars/abstract?event=139912</span></a><span lang=FR><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=FR><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>The thesis of Akshay Venkatesh obtains a ``Beyond Endoscopy'' proof of stable functorial transfer from tori to ${\rm SL}(2)$, by means of the Kuznetsov formula. In this talk, I will show that there is a local statement that underlies this work; namely, there is a local transfer operator taking orbital measures for the Kuznetsov formula to test measures on the torus. The global comparison of trace formulas is then obtained as a Poisson summation formula for this transfer operator.<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
