Abstract:

We will introduce Fourier analysis on adeles and employ a reformulation of Grossencharacters on ideles, and then give an elegant proof of Hecke’s work following Tate. Nowadays, Tate’s work is generally realized as study of automorphic forms for GL(1). This short course provides a thorough treatment following Tate’s approaches. Before introducing Tate’s work, we need to introduce some background on class field theory. We will give more details on local class field theory, and then give the structural theorems on global class field theory. Finally we will give the connection between them.
