Abstract. This is a joint work with Linhui Shen.
A decorated surface is an oriented surface with punctures and a finite collection of special points on the boundary, considered modulo isotopy.
Let G be a split adjoint group. We introduce a moduli space Loc(G,S) of G-local systems on a decorated surface S, which reduces to the character variety when S has no boundary, and quantize it.
Class field theory classifies abelian extensions of local and global fields
in terms of groups constructed from the base. We shall survey the main results of class
field theory for number fields and function fields alike. The goal of these introductory lectures
is to prepare the ground for the study of explicit class field theory in the function field case,
via Drinfeld modules.
I will talk for the first 2 or 3 times.
There is a general slogan according to which the limit behaviour of a one-parameter family of complex algebraic varieties when the parameter t tends to zero should be (partially) encoded in the associated t-adic analytic space in the sense of Berkovich; this slogan has given rise to deep and fascinating conjecturs by Konsevich and Soibelman, as well as positive results by various authors (Berkovich, Nicaise, Boucksom, Jonsson...).
I will discuss results relating different partially wrapped Fukaya categories. These include a K\"unneth formula, a `stop removal' result relating partially wrapped Fukaya categories relative to different stops, and a gluing formula for wrapped Fukaya categories. The techniques also lead to generation results for Weinstein manifolds and for Lefschetz fibrations. The methods are mainly geometric, and the key underlying Floer theoretic fact is an exact triangle in the Fukaya category associated to Lagrangian surgery along a short Reeb chord at infinity.
