Welcome to the webpage of the Essen PhD Seminar for the Wintersemester 2023/24!

The seminar will take place every Wednesday starting from October 11th in the lecture room WSC S-U-4.01. The talks will start at 4 pm and last about 90 minutes.

You can find the latest version of the program here.

You can find an english translation of Deligne's paper "Formes modulaires et representations l-adiques" here. I do not know who translated it, it seems to me that there are not big mistakes, but there could very well be typos. In any case it may be useful if you don't know french.
