Overview
Explore a comprehensive lecture on the Brumer-Stark Conjecture and its refinements, presented by Samit Dasgupta at the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics. Delve into Dasgupta's recent collaborative work with Mahesh Kakde, gaining a broad overview that motivates the conjecture and illustrates its connections to explicit class field theory. Discover the latest developments in proving the conjecture, including joint work with Kakde, Jesse Silliman, and Jiuya Wang. Examine the deduction of a special case of the Equivariant Tamagawa Number Conjecture and its significant corollaries. Understand the key aspect of recent results, focusing on handling the prime p=2 through the proof of a version of Ribet's Lemma for characters congruent modulo p. This 54-minute talk offers an in-depth exploration of advanced mathematical concepts and their implications in number theory.
