We develop a necessary condition for the existence of stable fixed points for the general network Kuramoto model, and use it to show that for the complete network the homogeneous model has no non-zero stable fixed point solution. This result provides further evidence that in the homogeneous case the zero fixed point has an attractor set consisting of the entire space minus a set of measure zero, a conjecture of Verwoerd and Mason (2007).
We prove the compatibility of local and global Langlands correspondences for GL_n, which was proved up to semisimplification by Harris-Taylor. More precisely, for the n-dimensional l-adic representation R_l(Π) of the Galois group of a CM-field L attached to a conjugate self-dual regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representation Π, which is square integrable at some finite place, we show that Frobenius semisimplification of the restriction of R_l(Π) to the decomposition group of a prime v of L not dividing l corresponds to Π_v by the local Langlands correspondence. As a corollary, we show the irreducibility of R_l(Π) when Π_v is square integrable for some finite place v outside l. We also obtain conditional results in the case v|l.
In the first part of this paper we try to explain to a general mathematical audience some of the remarkable web of conjectures linking representations of Galois groups with algebraic geometry, complex analysis and discrete subgroups of Lie groups. In the second part we briefly review some limited recent progress on these conjectures.
In this paper we prove the following theorem. Let L/\Q_p be a finite extension with ring of integers O_L and maximal ideal lambda. Theorem 1. Suppose that p >= 5. Suppose also that ρ:G_\Q -> GL_2(O_L) is a continuous representation satisfying the following conditions. 1. ρramifies at only finitely many primes. 2. ρmod λis modular and absolutely irreducible. 3. ρis unramified at p and ρ(Frob_p) has eigenvalues αand βwith distinct reductions modulo λ. Then there exists a classical weight one eigenform f = \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_m(f) q^m and an embedding of \Q(a_m(f)) into L such that for almost all primes q, a_q(f)=tr(ρ(\Frob_q)). In particular ρhas finite image and for any embedding i of L in \C, the Artin L-function L(i o ρ, s) is entire.
