Zusammenfassung: The development of efficient (polynomial time) algorithms for counting the number of points on varieties over finite fields represents a highly attractive area of application, in part because it relies on sophisticated mathematical theories like the étale and p-adic cohomology theories whose development was a cornerstone of number theory in the second half of the 20th century. The workshop will be devoted to recent advances in this area and its applications.

Zusammenfassung: This is the eighth in a series of annual spring workshops sponsored by the New York Number Theory Seminar on problems in combinatorial and additive number theory and related parts of mathematics. In addition to long and short talks, each day of the conference will include a problem and discussion session. Previous CANT conferences have attracted many graduate students as well as research mathematicians, and students are encouraged to attend. A list of lecturers and other information will be posted on the conference website. Mathematicians who wish to speak at the meeting are encouraged to submit a title and abstract to: melvyn.nathanson@lehman.cuny.edu .

Zusammenfassung: A conference focusing on the many exciting interactions between number theory and representation theory.

Zusammenfassung: The School is addressed to Ph.D. students and young post-doc researchers working on Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry and related areas. There will be four courses: (1) 'Introduction to rigid cohomology' by Bernard Le Stum (University of Rennes). (2) 'Dwork cohomology and applications' by Steven Sperber (University of Minnesota). (3) 'Overconvergent F-isocrystals and rigid cohomology on curves' by Nobuo Tsuzuki (Tohoku University). (4) 'An introduction to Dwork's p-adic analytic representation of an additive character' by C. Douglas Haessig (University of Rochester).
