Lifts of Hilbert modular forms and application to a conjecture of Gross

Speaker: Lassina Dembélé, Max Planck Institut für Mathematik

Abstract: In this talk, we discuss the existence of certain lifts of Hilbert modular forms. We then use those lifts to provide theoretical evidence for a conjecture of Dick Gross on the modularity of abelian varieties not of GL_type.
(This is joint work with Clifton Cunningham.)
