Langlands Functoriality Conjecture and Number Theory

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematics ((PM,volume 255))

Summary

We discuss several applications of the recent developments in the Langlands functoriality conjecture such as the automorphy of the symmetric powers of 2-dimensional complex representations of Galois groups of number fields, lattice point problems, Ramanujan– Selberg and Sato–Tate conjectures.We conclude by explaining how these recent developments are established.
