Arithmetic Geometry Lab
Department of Mathematics, POSTECH
The Arithmetic Geometry Lab at POSTECH is a research group devoted to arithmetic geometry and closely related areas. The Lab is supported by the Basic Research Laboratory program of the National Research Foundation of Korea.
The Lab brings together Sungmun Cho (PI), Valentin Buciumas, Kyoung-Seog Lee, and Qirui Li. Our research lies at the interface of arithmetic geometry, number theory, algebraic geometry, representation theory, and cohomological methods.
Our aim is to develop new ideas and methods in arithmetic geometry, broadly construed, and to build an active international research environment for faculty members, postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and visitors.

Research
The Lab focuses on arithmetic geometry, broadly construed, and on areas closely related to the research interests of the faculty members.
Current directions include, among others, orbital integrals and smooth integral models, arithmetic intersection theory, p-adic and automorphic representation theory, cohomological and geometric methods, singularities, Cohen–Lenstra phenomena, and interactions with algebraic geometry and low-dimensional topology.
These topics describe some of the current activities of the Lab and are not intended to limit its scope.
Activities
The Lab organizes and supports seminars, learning seminars, lecture series, workshops, research visits, and conference participation.
