Péter Varjú, Lifting in special linear groups
(University of Cambridge

Thursday, March 6, 2025 (8am PST, 11am EST, 4pm GMT, 5pm CET, 6pm Israel Standard Time, 9:30pm Indian Standard Time)
Friday, March 7, 2025 (12am CST, 3am AEDT, 5am NZDT)

Abstract: Given an element in SL_n(Z/qZ), what is the smallest element of SL_n(Z) that projects to it? We show that a lift with entries bounded by O(q^2 log q) always exists, and that the exponent 2 is best possible. Time permitting we may discuss the analogous problem of finding integer matrices with prescribed determinant that approximates a given matrix with real entries. Joint work with Amitay Kamber.

Gergely Harcos, A new zero-free region for Rankin–Selberg L-functions
(Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics

Thursday, March 20, 2025 (9am PDT, 12pm EDT, 4pm GMT, 5pm CET, 6pm Israel Standard Time, 9:30pm Indian Standard Time)
Friday, March 21, 2025 (12am CST, 3am AEDT, 5am NZDT)

Abstract: I will present a new zero-free region for all GL(1)-twists of GL(m)×GL(n) Rankin–Selberg L-functions. The proof is inspired by Siegel’s celebrated lower bound for Dirichlet L-functions at s=1. I will also discuss some applications. Joint work with Jesse Thorner.
