Abstract: A large part of modern number theory deals with the relation between algebraic objects and analytic objects, as in the famous Shimura-Taniyama-Weil conjecture relating elliptic curves with modular forms, whose proof by Wiles, completed by Taylor, et. al., lead to the solution of Fermat's Last Theorem. I will try to explain the general Langlands conjectures underlying this picture, and describe some recent results, in particular in the situation mentioned in the title.
