Very excited to kick off our workshop at @esivienna.bsky.social on "Putting the cosmic large-scale structure on the map" today. Looking forward to a week of discussions around extracting the maximum of cosmological information from astronomical observations. Amazing support by the ESI team. Thanks!

The program explores automorphic forms, focusing on Langlands functoriality, automorphic L-functions, and connections to geometry—especially locally symmetric spaces linked to arithmetic subgroups of reductive algebraic groups over number fields.

It’s always amazing to see the many talents of the people we welcome here at the ESI—scientific and artistic! 🎨🧠

As a goodbye gift, Prof. Andreas Weiermann brought us a beautiful self-made acrylic painting of Erwin Schrödinger. Thank you so much! 🙏

Last day at @esivienna.bsky.social for a week! I'm developing a suspicion that the only games allowed in the lounge other than chess are cat themed. Not pictured: Exploding Kittens.

A photo of the board for the game Cats and Boxes, partway through a game. Some cats are in boxes, some are still out in the open.

I met one of Schrödinger's cats at @esivienna.bsky.social!
