Analytic theory of GL(3) automorphic forms and applications November 17 to November 21, 2008 American Institute of Mathematics, Palo Alto, CA Organizers: Henryk Iwaniec, Philippe Michel, and K. Soundararajan Description: This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, has the goal of providing a description of GL_3 automorphic forms and their L-functions amenable to analytic number theorists and to explain the various approaches available to perform harmonic analysis on these spaces. A second objective will be to discuss the extension of some of the important tools existing in the GL_2 theory to the GL_3 context: a typical example is Kuznetzov's formula. A third objective will be to list some important problems known for GL_2 and to identify the main obstructions to the extension of these to GL_3: typical problems are non-vanishing problems for central values of L-functions and subconvexity problem. To achieve these goals we plan to bring together analytic number theorists and specialists from the theory of automorphic forms and related fields who are interested in analytic questions.
