Local Langlands Conjectures

In mathematics, the local Langlands conjectures, introduced by Langlands (1967, 1970), are part of the Langlands program. They describe a correspondence between representations of the Weil group of a local field and representations of algebraic groups over the local field, generalizing local class field theory from abelian Galois groups to non-abelian Galois groups.

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or conjectures:

    Eclecticism is the degree zero of contemporary general culture: one listens to reggae, watches a western, eats McDonald’s food for lunch and local cuisine for dinner, wears Paris perfume in Tokyo and “retro” clothes in Hong Kong; knowledge is a matter for TV games. It is easy to find a public for eclectic works.
    Jean François Lyotard (b. 1924)

    Our conjectures pass upon us for truths; we will know what we do not know, and often, what we cannot know: so mortifying to our pride is the base suspicion of ignorance.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
