Abstract: tba
Abstract: Let ''A'' be a ring whose additive group is free Abelian of finite
rank. The topic of this talk is the following question: what is the
probability that several random elements of ''A'' generate it as a ring? After
making this question precise, I will show that it has an interesting
answer which can be interpreted as a local-global principle. Some
applications will be discussed. This talk will be based on my joint work
with Rostyslav Kravchenko (University of Chicago) and Marcin Mazur
(Binghamton University).

Guillermo Mantilla-Soler (EPFL)
Title: The spinor genus of the integral trace and local arithmetic equivalence

Abstract: In this talk I'll explain my recent results on the spinor genus of the integral trace form of a number field. I'll show how from them one can decide in terms of finitely many ramification invariants, and under some restrictions, whether or not a pair of number fields have isometric integral trace forms. Inspired by the work of R. Perlis on number fields with the same zeta function I'll define the notion of local arithmetic equivalence, and I'll show that under certain hypothesis this equivalence determines the local root numbers of the number field, and the isometry class of integral trace form.

Simon Marshall (Northwestern)
Title: Endoscopy and cohomology growth on U(3)

Abstract: I will use the endoscopic classification of automorphic forms on U(3) to determine the asymptotic cohomology growth of families of complex-hyperbolic 2-manifolds.

Title: Generating an algebra from the probabilistic standpoint

Abstract: Let A be a ring whose additive group is free Abelian of finite rank. The topic of this talk is the following question: what is the probability that several random elements of A generate it as a ring? After making this question precise, I will show that it has an interesting answer which can be interpreted as a local-global principle. Some applications will be discussed. This talk will be based on my joint work with Rostyslav Kravchenko (University of Chicago) and Marcin Mazur (Binghamton University).
