    MY UNFORGETTABLE EARLY YEARS AT THE INSTITUTE Enstitüde Unutulmaz Erken Yıllarım Dinakar Ramakrishnan `And what was it like,’ I asked him, `meeting Eliot?’ `When he looked at you,’ he said, `it was like standing on a quay, watching the prow of the Queen Mary come towards you, very slowly.’ – from `Stern’ by Seamus Heaney in memory of Ted Hughes, about the time he met T.S.Eliot It was a fortunate stroke of serendipity for me to have been at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, twice during the nineteen eighties, first as a Post-doctoral member in 1982-83, and later as a Sloan Fellow in the Fall of 1986. I had the privilege of getting to know Robert Langlands at that time, and, needless to say, he has had a larger than life influence on me. It wasn’t like two ships passing in the night, but more like a rowboat feeling the waves of an oncoming ship. Langlands and I did not have many conversations, but each time we did, he would make a Zen like remark which took me a long time, at times months (or even years), to comprehend. Once or twice it even looked like he was commenting not on the question I posed, but on a tangential one; however, after much reflection, it became apparent that what he had said had an interesting bearing on what I had been wondering about, and it always provided a new take, at least to me, on the matter. Most importantly, to a beginner in the field like I was then, he was generous to a fault, always willing, whenever asked, to explain the subtle aspects of his own work.

    THE FERMAT CONJECTURE by C.J. Mozzochi, Ph.D. Box 1424 Princeton, NJ 08542 860/652-9234 [email protected] Copyright C.J. Mozzochi, Ph.D. - 2011 THE FERMAT CONJECTURE FADE IN: EXT. OXFORD GRAMMAR SCHOOL -- DAY (1963) A ten-year-old ANDREW WILES is running toward the school to talk with his friend, Peter. INT. HALL OF SCHOOL Andrew Wiles excitedly approaches PETER, who is standing in the hall. ANDREW WILES Peter, I want to show you something very exciting. Let’s go into this classroom. INT. CLASSROOM Andrew Wiles writes on the blackboard: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11...positive integers. 3, 5, 7, 11, 13...prime numbers. 23 = 2∙ 2∙ 2 35 = 3∙ 3∙ 3∙ 3∙ 3 xn = x∙∙∙x n-terms and explains to Peter the Fermat Conjecture; as he writes on the blackboard. ANDREW WILES The Fermat Conjecture states that the equation xn + yn = zn has no positive integer solutions, if n is an integer greater than 2. Note that 32+42=52 so the conjecture is not true when n=2. The famous French mathematician Pierre Fermat made this conjecture in 1637. See how beautiful and symmetric the equation is! Peter, in a mocking voice, goes to the blackboard and writes on the blackboard: 1963-1637=326. PETER Well, one thing is clear...the conjecture has been unproved for 326 years...you will never prove it! 2. ANDREW WILES Don’t be so sure. I have already shown that it is only necessary to prove it when n is a prime number and, besides, Fermat could not have known too much more about it than I do.

  • On the Genesis of Robert P. Langlands' Conjectures and His Letter to André
    BULLETIN (New Series) OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY http://dx.doi.org/10.1090/bull/1609 Article electronically published on January 25, 2018 ON THE GENESIS OF ROBERT P. LANGLANDS’ CONJECTURES AND HIS LETTER TO ANDREWEIL´ JULIA MUELLER Abstract. This article is an introduction to the early life and work of Robert P. Langlands, creator and founder of the Langlands program. The story is, to a large extent, told by Langlands himself, in his own words. Our focus is on two of Langlands’ major discoveries: automorphic L-functions and the principle of functoriality. It was Langlands’ desire to communicate his excitement about his newly discovered objects that resulted in his famous letter to Andr´e Weil. This article is aimed at a general mathematical audience and we have purposely not included the more technical aspects of Langlands’ work. Contents 1. Introduction 1 2. Langlands’ early years (1936–1960) 3 3. Overview 11 Acknowledgments 36 About the author 36 References 36 1. Introduction This article is about the life and work of Robert Langlands, covering the first 30 years of his life from 1936 to 1966 and his work from 1960 to 1966. His letter to Andr´e Weil dates to January 1967 and the Langlands program was launched soon afterward. Section 2 of this article focuses on Langlands’ early years, from 1936 to 1960, and the story is told by Langlands himself. The material is taken from an interview given by Langlands to a student, Farzin Barekat, at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Langlands’ alma mater, in the early 2000s.

Through the work of Gleason, Montgomery-Zippin, Yamabe, and others, this question was solved affirmatively. Subsequently, this structure theory was used to prove Gromov’s theorem on groups of polynomial growth, and more recently in the work of Hrushovski, Breuillard, Green, and the author on the structure of approximate groups. In this graduate text, all of this material is presented in a unified manner.

Kein anderes Projekt in der modernen 30-jähriger außerordentlicher Professor in Princeton, Mathematik hat eine so große Reichweite, hat so viele einen Brief an den 60-jährigen, großen französischen tiefe Ergebnisse hervorgebracht und so viele Leute Mathematiker André Weil, in dem er einige seiner neuen engagiert. Weil das Langlands-Programm an Tiefe und mathematischen Vermutungen skizzierte. Breite immer weiter zunimmt, wird es häufig als eine große einheitliche Theorie der Mathematik beschrieben. “Wenn Sie bereit sind, dies als reine Spekulation zu lesen, würde ich das schätzen”, schrieb er. “Wenn nicht - ich bin sicher, dass Sie einen Papierkorb zur Hand haben.” Robert Phelan Langlands wurde 1936 in New Westminster Langlands Bescheidenheit liest sich heute wie eine fast in Greater Vancouver, Kanada, geboren.
