"Analogy geometry" of the prime numbers

Valerio Proietti (University of Tokyo)

Thursday 29th June, 2023 16:00-17:00 Maths 311B

Abstract

This talk is based on recent work by Connes and Consani, and old work by Glimm and Dixmier. We will take a walk in the "geometric garden of analogies" in search of a mysterious curve over a mysterious field. Our last stop will lead us, somewhat unexpectedly, to the "moduli space" of matroid C*-algebras and their classification.
