固有名詞

Langlands programme

1. (mathematics) A set of interconnected, far-reaching and consequential conjectures connecting number theory with geometry.

     The Langlands Programme gives the study of representations of p-adic groups context and relevance, without which it almost certainly would not have enjoyed such a rich half-century of research.
     As we are reminded in Chapter 4, one should never forget that the study of representations of p-adic groups is inextricably linked with harmonic analysis. The Langlands Programme gives us a beautiful illustration of this fact.

     The Langlands programme is a large programme which, if completed, will give a very satisfactory answer to the question of how to extend abelian class field theory to the general case of non-abelian extensions. It is a very big programme, that in many ways has only just started, and in it a fundamental role is played by complex linear representations of the Galois groups of algebraic extensions.

     Quickly recognised as an imaginative vision, the so-called Langlands programme has been a bountiful source of ideas and might conceivably lead one day to a unified approach to mathematics.
