Motivated by work of Corlette-Simpson over the complex numbers, we conjecture that all rank 2 \ell-adic local systems with trivial determinant on a smooth variety over a finite field come from families of abelian varieties. We will survey partial results on a p-adic variant of this conjecture. Time permitting, we will provide indications of the proofs, which involve the work of Hironaka and Hartshorne on positivity, the answer to a question of Grothendieck on extending abelian schemes via their p-divisible groups, Drinfeld's first work on the Langlands correspondence for GL_2 over function fields, and the pigeonhole principle with infinitely many pigeons. This is joint with Ambrus Pál.

The Tate conjecture for h^{2, 0} = 1 varieties over finite fields

The past decade has witnessed a great advancement on the Tate conjecture for varieties with Hodge number h^{2, 0} = 1. Charles, Madapusi-Pera and Maulik completely settled the conjecture for K3 surfaces over finite fields, and Moonen proved the Mumford-Tate (and hence also Tate) conjecture for more or less arbitrary h^{2, 0} = 1 varieties in characteristic 0.

In this talk, I will explain that the Tate conjecture is true for mod $p$ reductions of complex projective h^{2, 0} = 1 varieties when p is big enough, under a mild assumption on moduli. By refining this general result, we prove that in characteristic p at least 5 the BSD conjecture holds for a height 1 elliptic curve E over a function field of genus 1, as long as E is subject to the generic condition that all singular fibers in its minimal compacification are irreducible. We also prove the Tate conjecture over finite fields for a class of surfaces of general type and a class of Fano varieties. The overall philosphy is that the connection between the Tate conjecture over finite fields and the Lefschetz (1, 1)-theorem over the complex numbers is very robust for h^{2, 0} = 1 varieties, and works well beyond the hyperkahler world.

This is based on joint work with Paul Hamacher and Xiaolei Zhao.

Modularity of arithmetic special divisors for unitary Shimura varieties

We construct explicit generating series of arithmetic extensions of Kudla's special divisors on integral models of unitary Shimura varieties over CM fields with arbitrary split levels and prove that they are modular forms valued in the arithmetic Chow groups. This provides a partial solution to Kudla's modularity problem. The main ingredient in our construction is S. Zhang's theory of admissible arithmetic divisors. The main ingredient in the proof is an arithmetic mixed Siegel-Weil formula.

Special cycles on Shimura varieties and theta series

In this talk I will introduce special cycles on Shimura varieties and discuss how to use them to construct geometric and arithmetic theta series. Then I will briefly discuss the connection between these theta series and L functions. In particular I will introduce Kudla-Rapoport conjecture–one key ingredient to make the connection.

A family of period integrals related to triple product L-functions

Let be a number field with ring of adeles . Let be a triple of positive integers and let where the are all cuspidal automorphic representations of . We denote by the corresponding triple product L-function. It is the Langlands L-function defined by the tensor product representation . In this talk I will present a family of Eulerian period integrals, which are holomorphic multiples of the triple product -function in a domain that nontrivially intersects the critical strip. We expect that they satisfy a local multiplicity one statement and a local functional equation. This is joint work with Jayce Getz, Chun-Hsien Hsu and Spencer Leslie.

Rank 2 local systems and abelian varieties.

Motivated by work of Corlette-Simpson over the complex numbers, we conjecture that all rank 2 \ell-adic local systems with trivial determinant on a smooth variety over a finite field come from families of abelian varieties. We will survey partial results on a p-adic variant of this conjecture. Time permitting, we will provide indications of the proofs, which involve the work of Hironaka and Hartshorne on positivity, the answer to a question of Grothendieck on extending abelian schemes via their p-divisible groups, Drinfeld's first work on the Langlands correspondence for GL_2 over function fields, and the pigeonhole principle with infinitely many pigeons. This is joint with Ambrus Pál.

Distribution of primes of split reduction of abelian surfaces

Let A defined over the rationals be an absolutely simple abelian surface. We consider the number of primes p less than x, of good reduction for A, such that the reduction of A at p splits (up to isogeny over F_p). It is known that the density of such primes is zero if the endomorphism ring of A is commutative. Under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis for Dedekind zeta functions, we prove explicit upper bounds on the number of primes such that the reduction of A at p splits. These results improve prior bounds given by J. Achter in 2012 and by D. Zywina in 2018. Under additional conjectures, we get sharper bounds.
