HIM Outreach
The word "period" is used to designate any number represented by the integral of an algebraic differential form over a cycle in an algebraic variety over the rationals (or the algebraic numbers). These include many numbers of interest in number theory and mathematical physics (multiple zeta values, Mahler measures, superstring amplitudes, ...), and also have deep connections with special values of motivic L-functions. The trimester covered five topics in depth: Motives Regulators Amplitudes Picard-Fuchs Equations Hypergeometric Motives The aim of this workshop is to “take stock” of — and to report on — recent developments in this area, since the original activity.
