Description:
------------

This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will introduce
participants to the L-functions and Modular Forms Database (LMFDB)
as a tool for research and teaching.

The LMFDB contains a wealth of information on L-functions,
modular forms of several types, elliptic curves and genus 2 curves,
number fields, and much more.  In addition to detailed information
about individual objects, the LMFDB also includes information about
connections between objects, including connections described by
the Langlands Program.

The workshop will involve a mixture of demonstrations, explorations,
discussions about mathematical content, and discussions about the
future of the LMFDB. 

The workshop is organized by
Brian Conrey, David Farmer, and John Jones.

Space and funding is available for a few more participants.
If you would like to participate, please apply by filling
out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later
than June 1, 2019. Applications are open to all, and
we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities,
junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily
undergraduate institutions to apply.

AIM Research Conference Center:
--------------------------------

The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused
workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM
focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on
a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a
significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an
important new result, or investigating the convergence between
two distinct areas of mathematics.
