 Bard College) as part of Pioneer Valley Number Theory Seminar\n\nLecture h
 eld in Seeley Mudd 207 @Amherst College.\n\nAbstract\nLet E and E’ be is
 ogenous elliptic curves defined over Q. Then their associated L-functions 
 are equal\; in particular\, their leading Taylor coefficients are equal. H
 owever (assuming the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer)\, the indivi
 dual arithmetic invariants that comprise the leading terms may not be. In 
 this talk we explore how the individual BSD terms change under a prime-deg
 ree isogeny and how to quantify the “likelihood” that such changes occ
 ur. This is joint work with Alexander Barrios.\n

 versity) as part of Pioneer Valley Number Theory Seminar\n\nLecture held i
 n Seeley Mudd 207 @Amherst College.\n\nAbstract\nUltrafilters formalize a 
 generalized notion of convergence based on a prescribed idea of "largeness
 " for subsets of the natural numbers\, and underlie constructions like ult
 raproducts. In the study of moduli spaces\, they provide a clean way to en
 code degenerations and to establish uniformity results that are difficult 
 to obtain using ordinary limits. This talk will discuss applications of ul
 trafilters to uniformity theorems in dynamics and arithmetic geometry. Aft
 er introducing local results that arise from this approach\, I will sketch
  some of the arithmetic consequences\, including uniform bounds on rationa
 l torsion points on abelian varieties. This is joint work with Jit Wu Yap.

  We will talk about some of those advancements focusing on groups which ar

 ple groups and the alternating groups $A_n$). We also make a connection to
  non-normal subvarieties in the singular locus $\\mathcal{M}_g$.\n

 e.\n\nAbstract\nMany interesting problems in arithmetic statistics involve
  counting number fields (ordered by their discriminants\, say) with certai
 n properties. In joint work with Siman Wong (UMass Amherst)\, we establish
  asymptotic formulae for the number of biquadratic extensions of $\\mathbb
 {Q}$ that admit a degree-2 extension with Galois group $G$\, where $G$ is 
 either the quaternion group or the dihedral group (of order 8). We will di
 scuss these results and how they are proved\, and we will discuss their si

 Wesleyan University) as part of Pioneer Valley Number Theory Seminar\n\nLe
 cture held in Seeley Mudd 207 @Amherst College.\n\nAbstract\nThe Modularit
 y Theorem states that given an elliptic curve one can find an associated m
 odular form.  One of the more striking aspects of the Modularity Theorem i
 s the variety of seemingly unrelated ways in which the relationship betwee
 n the elliptic curve and the modular form can be stated.  For this talk\, 
 the primary formulations of modularity we will be interested in are the eq
 uality of elliptic and modular $L$-functions\, equality between the number
  of points on the elliptic curve mod $p$ with the Fourier coefficients of 
 the modular form\, and finally an isomorphism between elliptic and modular
  Galois representations.  Each of these connections can be made explicit b
 y expressing both sides in terms of hypergeometric functions (over $\\math
 bb{C}$)\, hypergeometric character sums (over $\\mathbb{F}_p$)\, and hyper
 geometric Galois representations (over $\\mathbb{Q}_\\ell)$.  More general
 ly\, each of these connections correspond to De Rham\, crystalline\, and 
 étale realizations of hypergeometric motives.  We discuss recent and upco
 ming work with Grove\, Long\, and Tu using these hypergeometric perspectiv
 es towards understanding generalizations of the Modularity Theorem for the
 se hypergeometric motives.\n

 s</a>\nby Kate Finnerty (Boston University) as part of Pioneer Valley Numb
 er Theory Seminar\n\nLecture held in Seeley Mudd 207 @Amherst College.\n\n
 Abstract\nA well-known theorem of Serre bounds the largest prime $\\ell$ f
 or which the mod $\\ell$ Galois representation of a non-CM elliptic curve 
 $E/\\mathbb{Q}$ is nonsurjective. Serre asked whether a universal bound on
  the largest nonsurjective prime might exist. Significant partial progress
  has been made toward this question. Lemos proved that it has an affirmati
 ve answer for all $E$ admitting a rational cyclic isogeny. Zywina offered 
 a more ambitious conjecture about the possible adelic indices that can occ
 ur as $E$ varies. We will discuss a recent project (joint with Tyler Genao
 \, Jacob Mayle\, and Rakvi) that extends Lemos's result to prove Zywina's 
 conjecture for certain families of elliptic curves.\n

 ory</a>\nby Jeffrey Hatley (Union College) as part of Pioneer Valley Numbe
 r Theory Seminar\n\nLecture held in Seeley Mudd 205 @Amherst College.\n\nA
 bstract\nFor a fixed elliptic curve $E/\\mathbb{Q}$\, Goldfeld's Conjectur
 e predicts that half of its quadratic twists have rank 0 and half have ran
 k 1. This conjecture is now a theorem in most cases\, due to recent work o
 f Alex Smith. However\, it is still interesting to ask for effective versi
 ons of this theorem\; for instance\, if one considers only twists by prime
  numbers which are 1 mod 4\, what can be said about the rank distribution?
  In this talk\, we will discuss joint work with Anwesh Ray which uses Iwas
 awa theory to study some of these sorts of questions.\n
