Sage Number Theory and Development, Alyson Deines (10:00-11:00)

This talk will have three parts. In the first, I will discuss what number theoretic constructs are implemented in Sage and how to use them. Next, I will compare Sage's functionality with Magma's functionality. In particular, some gaps in Sage. The last part is an introduction to Sage development using GitHub and the Trac server.

Zeta functions I, Fernando Rodriguez Villegas (11:30-12:00)

Motivic integration and orbital integrals I, Immanuel Halupczok (12:15-12:45)

Iwasawa theory I, Jeanine Van Order (2:00-2:30)

Overconvergent modular symbols I, David Roe (2:45-3:15)

p-adic Precision I, Tristan Vaccon (3:45-4:15)

Variations on Chabauty-Coleman I, Victor Flynn (4:30-5:00)

This will be a short introduction to main principles of using classical Chabauty-Coleman as a technique for finding rational points on curves, where the rank of the Jacobian is less than the genus of the curve (note that this will be an introduction to the main ideas of the technique, and will not about any specific implementation).

Computation of Hida families of ordinary cusp forms, Francesca Bianchi (8:00-8:15)

The first example of a p-adic family of modular forms goes back to Serre's construction of the p-adic Eisenstein series. At the end of the 1980s Hida then introduced the notion of a p-adic family of modular forms going through a cuspidal eigenform in the ordinary subspace of a given weight. This means that we look for a q-expansion such that the coefficients depend p-adically on a parameter k, in such a way that specialising the expansion at a certain k gives an eigenform of weight k. In the talk we will present an algorithm to compute Hida families through an eigenform of trivial character.

A family of Eisenstein polynomials generating totally ramified extensions, identification of extensions and construction of class fields, Maurizio Monge (8:20-8:35)

We present a family of special polynomials generating totally ramified extensions of local field K. We prove that each extension is generated by at least a special polynomial, but the number of special polynomials generating one extension L is at most the number of conjugates of L/K in the algebraic closure, and in particular it is unique for Galois extensions. A reduction algorithm is presented, and its study allows to characterize the set of special polynomials in terms of the intermediate extensions. A criterion that can ensure that two polynomials generate non-isomorphic extensions is provided, and describe an algorithm which allows to construct a totally ramified class field, given a suitable description of a norm subgroup.

Zeta functions of quartic K3 surfaces over F_3, Edgar Costa (8:40-8:55)

With the goal of doing a census of the Hasse--Weil zeta functions of quartic K3 surfaces over F3, we overview the problem of computing the zeta function of a generic K3 surface over F3 using p-adic methods.

Monday

A survey of p-adic point counting, Jan Tuitman (10:00-11:00)

We will give a broad overview of p-adic methods to compute the zeta function of an algebraic variety.

Recent developments and applications of uniform p-adic integration, Raf Cluckers (11:30-12:30)

As a concrete variant of motivic integration, we will discuss uniform p-adic integration and constructive aspects of results involved. Uniformity is in the p-adic fields, and, for large primes p, in the fields Fp((t)). Using real-valued Haar measures on such fields, one can study integrals, Fourier transforms, etc. We follow a line of research that Jan Denef started in the eighties, with in particular the use of (effective) model theory to study various questions related to p-adic integration. A form of uniform p-adic quantifier elimination is used, which is algorithmic. Using the notion of definable functions, one builds constructively a class of complex-valued functions which one can integrate (w.r.t. some of the variables) without leaving the class. One can also take Fourier transforms in the class. Recent applications in the Langlands program are based on Transfer Principles for uniform p-adic integrals, which allow one to get results for Fp((t)) from results for Qp, once p is large, and vice versa. These Transfer Principles are obtained via the study of general kinds of loci, some of them being zero loci. More recently, these loci are playing a role in the uniform study of p-adic wave front sets for (uniformly definable) p-adic distributions, a tool often used in real analysis. This talk contains various joint work with Gordon, Halupczok, Loeser, Raibaut, and some of it is still in progress. Although all the definitions and results are algorithmic, almost nothing has been implemented yet, and questions about optimal complexity are far from being understood, although some lower bounds are known, coming from lower bounds for Presburger arithmetic.

Iwasawa theory II, Chris Wuthrich (10:00-11:00)

I intend to show what sage can do with p-adic L-functions of elliptic curves. Through the known results on the p-adic version of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture this gives results on the Tate-Shafarevich group over Q, even for elliptic curves of rank greater than 1. My talk should also include what sage cannot do in this direction.

Overconvergent modular symbols II, Ander Steele (11:30-12:30)

Wednesday

p-adic Floats, Xavier Caruso (10:00-11:00)

Floating point arithmetic is by far the most common implementation of real numbers on computers. This is in complete opposition with the p-adic case for which all standard implementations rely on interval arithmetic. This talk aims at arguing for initiating -- and then generalizing -- the use of p-adic floating point arithmetic in computer algebra systems.
