 ">Geometric L-packets of toral supercuspidal representations</a>\nby Charl
 otte Chan (Michigan) as part of Southern California Number Theory Day\n\nL
 ecture held in APM 6402 and online.\n\nAbstract\nIn 2001\, Yu gave an alge
 braic construction of supercuspidal representations of p-adic groups. Ther
 e has since been a lot of progress towards explicitly constructing the loc
 al Langlands correspondence for supercuspidal representations: Kazhdan-Var
 shavsky and DeBacker-Reeder (depth zero)\, Reeder and DeBacker-Spice (tora
 l)\, and Kaletha (regular). In this talk\, we present recent and ongoing w
 ork investigating a geometric counterpart to this story. This is based on 
 joint work with Masao Oi.\n

 ">Reflection theorems for counting quadratic and cubic polynomials</a>\nby
  Evan O'Dorney (Notre Dame) as part of Southern California Number Theory D
 ay\n\nLecture held in APM 6402 and online.\n\nAbstract\nScholz's celebrate
 d 1932 reflection principle\, relating the 3-torsion in the class groups o
 f $\\mathbf{Q}(\\sqrt{D})$ and $\\mathbf{Q}(\\sqrt{-3D})$\, can be viewed 
 as an equality among the numbers of cubic fields of different discriminant
 s. In 1997\, Y. Ohno discovered (quite by accident) a beautiful reflection
  identity relating the number of binary cubic forms\, equivalently cubic r
 ings\, of discriminants D and -27D\, where D is not necessarily squarefree
 . This was proved in 1998 by Nakagawa\, establishing an "extra functional 
 equation" for the Shintani zeta functions counting binary cubic forms. In 
 my talk\, I will present a new and more illuminating method for proving id
 entities of this type\, based on Poisson summation on adelic cohomology (i
 n the style of Tate's thesis). Also\, I will present a corresponding refle
 ction theorem for quadratic polynomials of a quite unexpected shape. The c
 orresponding Shintani zeta function is in two variables\, counting by both
  discriminant and leading coefficient\, and finding its analytic propertie
 s is a work in progress.\n

 ">Injectivity of the Abel-Jacobi map and Gross-Kudla-Schoen cycles</a>\nby
  Congling Qiu (Yale) as part of Southern California Number Theory Day\n\nL
 ecture held in APM 6402 and online.\n\nAbstract\nOn the triple product of 
 a quaternionic Shimura curve over a totally real field\, the injectivity o
 f the Abel-Jacobi map implies an automorphic decomposition of the Chow gro
 ups. Then Prasad's theorem on trilinear forms implies the vanishing of the
  isotypic component of the Gross-Kudla-Schoen modified diagonal cycle with
  a certain local root number. We define such a decomposition unconditional
 ly and prove the vanishing. This is a special case of some general results

 ">Simple abelian varieties over finite fields with extreme point counts</a
 >\nby Alex Smith (Stanford) as part of Southern California Number Theory D
 ay\n\nLecture held in APM 6402 and online.\n\nAbstract\nGiven a compactly 
 supported probability measure on the reals\, we will give a necessary and 
 sufficient condition for there to be a sequence of totally real algebraic 
 integers whose distribution of conjugates approaches the measure. We use t
 his result to prove that there are infinitely many totally positive algebr
 aic integers X satisfying tr(X)/deg(X) < 1.899\; previously\, there were o
 nly known to be infinitely many such integers satisfying tr(X)/deg(X) < 2.
  We also will explain how our method can be used in the search for simple 
 abelian varieties with extreme point counts.\n
