Goals
The main focuses of the workshops are Iwasawa theory and Characteristic p L-functions. Both topics have seen important advances in recent years, and of course they are strictly linked and help to the understanding of each other: thus the two workshops should be regarded as part 1 and part 2 of an activity having essentially one single scope.
The second workshop centers around L-functions and zeta values, with emphasis on the recent developments in the characteristic p theory. Among the relevant themes, we mention, somewhat disorderly, the many progresses in transcendence theory, t-motives, characteristic p gamma and multizeta functions, Drinfeld modular forms, Carlitz-Bernoulli numbers and their extensions, meromorphic continuation of Goss's L-functions and the problem of the functional equation, cohomological theories in function ¯eld arithmetic, crystals and Hodge-Pink structures.

Call for Contributed Talks
Besides the invited talks, contributed talks from the participants are
encouraged.
If you intend to participate and present a talk, please send us a title and
abstract (a PDF and word file of one or two pages) through nthe following email
address:
wkdrinfeld@crm.cat
Deadline to submit an abstract: March 10th, 2010.
Please make sure that the submitted abstract contains the names and affiliations
