The work of Robert Langlands
摘要
A more accurate title might have been On the Work of Robert Langlands in Representation Theory, Automorphic Forms, Number Theory and Arithmetic Geometry. For I have left out a significant part of Langlands’ work, his papers in percolation theory and in mathematical physics, published in the years 1988–2000. I have however included a brief description of his recent work on the geometric theory.
