Local Langlands Conjectures For GLn
The local Langlands conjectures for general linear groups state that there are unique bijections π ↔ ρπ from equivalence classes of irreducible admissible representations π of GLn(F) to equivalence classes of continuous Frobenius semisimple complex n-dimensional Weil–Deligne representations ρπ of the Weil group of F, that preserve L-functions and ε-factors of pairs of representations, and coincide with the Artin map for 1-dimensional representations. In other words,
- L(s,ρπ⊗ρπ') = L(s,π×π')
- ε(s,ρπ⊗ρπ',ψ) = ε(s,π×π',ψ)
Laumon, Rapoport & Stuhler (1993) proved the local Langlands conjectures for the general linear group GLn(K) for positive characteristic local fields K. Carayol (1992) gave an exposition of their work.
Richard Taylor and Michael Harris (2001) proved the local Langlands conjectures for the general linear group GLn(K) for characteristic 0 local fields K. Henniart (2001) gave another proof. Carayol (2000) and Wedhorn (2008) gave expositions of their work.

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or conjectures:
“In everyone’s youthful dreams, philosophy is still vaguely but inseparably, and with singular truth, associated with the East, nor do after years discover its local habitation in the Western world. In comparison with the philosophers of the East, we may say that modern Europe has yet given birth to none.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Our conjectures pass upon us for truths; we will know what we do not know, and often, what we cannot know: so mortifying to our pride is the base suspicion of ignorance.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
