The objects of study are arithmetic varieties\, namely complex varieties that can be defined by polynomial equations with integer coefficients. The theory expl oits the interplay between algebraic geometry and number theory and comple x analysis and differential geometry. Recently\, the formalism found beaut iful and important applications to the so-called Kudla programme and the C olmez conjecture. In the talk\, I will first introduce elementary facts in Minkowski's geometry of numbers. This will provide a motivation for the s equel\, where I will give my own view of Arakelov geometry\, by focusing o n toy (but non-trivial) examples of one of the central theorems in the the ory\, the arithmetic Riemann-Roch theorem mainly due to Bismut\, Gillet an d Soulé\, and generalizations. I hope there will be ingredients to satisfy different tastes\, for instance modular forms (arithmetic aspect)\, analy tic torsion (analytic aspect) and Selberg zeta functions (arithmetic\, ana lytic and dynamic aspects).\n DTSTART:20170505T200000Z DTEND:20170505T210000Z LOCATION:Room PK-5115\, CA\, Pavillon Président-Kennedy\, 201\, ave du Prés ident-Kennedy SUMMARY:Gerard Freixas\, Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu URL:/mathstat/channels/event/gerard-freixas-institut-d e-mathematiques-de-jussieu-267924 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
