Arithmetic geometry, Ramification theory of ℓ-adic sheaves
Bio
Research Interests:
My research interest broadly lies in ramification phenomena in arithmetic geometry. The past couple decades has seen remarkable progress in our understanding of the ramification of constructible sheaves in positive characteristic thanks to the work of mathematicians like K. Kato, T. Saito, A. Abbes,…culminating with the definitions of the singular support and characteristic cycle of an l-adic sheaf by A. Beilinson and T. Saito respectively, and the proof of the index formula by the latter.
I am interested in furthering that understanding (including in a rigid geometric setting), and applications of these tools to various arithmetic geometry questions: representation theory of p-adic groups, ramification aspects of local and geometric Langlands, equidistribution questions (à la Katz), …
