Group action on homogeneous spaces and applications in number theory Abstract: Many longstanding conjectures and problems in number theory can be reformulated in terms of group actions on homogeneous spaces. This reformulation allows them to be tackled using, alongside deep methods from algebra and algebraic geometry, powerful tools from ergodic theory and dynamical systems. An example of the effectiveness of this approach is Margulis's groundbreaking proof of the Oppenheim conjecture (formulated in 1929) concerning the values of quadratic forms at integer points. In this talk, [...]
