On the irrationality of certain \(2\)-adic zeta values Let \( \zeta_2(\cdot) \) be the Kubota-Leopoldt \(2\)-adic zeta function. We prove that, for every nonnegative integer \(s\), there exists an odd integer \(j\) in the interval \( [s+3,3s+5] \) such that \( \zeta_2(j) \) is irrational. In particular, at least one of \( \zeta_2(7),\zeta_2(9),\zeta_2(11),\zeta_2(13)\) is irrational.

Some satisfactory and unsatisfactory aspects of the dual groups for central covers We consider finite degree central covers of a linear reductive group in the local setting. Using some examples as the highlights, we will explain the dual group of such a central cover, and illustrate how much it captures the representation-theoretic information of the central cover, and also how much it fails for the same purpose. We concentrate on two aspects of a representation: formal degree and wavefront set. |

Solid locally analytic representations (Joint with Joaquín Rodrigues Jacinto) In this talk I will introduce different categories of \(p\)-adic representations in the framework of condensed mathematics. We give different geometric interpretations to them, construct explicit adjunctions that serve to compare cohomology theories, and see an application to \(p\)-adic categorical local Langlands for \(\mathrm{GL}_1\). |

Robba site and Robba cohomology We will discuss a \(p\)-adic cohomology theory for rigid analytic varieties with overconvergent structure (dagger spaces) over a local field of characteristic \(p\). After explaining the motivation, we will define a site (Robba site) and discuss its basic properties. |

p-adic obstructions and Selmer sections In 1983, shortly after Faltings' resolution of the Mordell Conjecture, Grothendieck formulated his famous Section Conjecture, positing that the set of rational points on a projective curve Y of genus at least two should be equal to a certain section set defined in terms of the etale fundamental group of Y. To this day, this conjecture remains wide open, with only a small handful of very special examples known. In this talk, I will discuss recent work with Jakob Stix, in which we proved a Mordell-like finiteness theorem for the "Selmer" part of the section set for any smooth projective curve Y of genus at least 2 over the rationals. This generalises the Faltings-Mordell Theorem, and implies strong constraints on the finite descent locus from obstruction theory. The key new idea in our proof is an adaptation of the recent proof of Mordell by Lawrence and Venkatesh to the study of the Selmer section set. Time permitting, I will also briefly describe recent work with Theresa Kumpitsch and Martin Lüdtke in which we compute the Selmer section set in one example using the Chabauty-Kim method. |
