Relative trace formula and periods of automorphic forms August 24 to August 28, 2009 American Institute of Mathematics, Palo Alto, CA Organizers: Herve Jacquet, Erez Lapid, and Akshay Venkatesh Description: This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to the study of the relative trace formula and periods of automorphic forms. In particular, we hope to formulate a precise general conjecture for the exact value of period integrals which encompasses all known and conjectured cases. Deadline: April 24, 2009 Details: http://aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/traceformula.html
