In this course, we define the zeta functions of Galois representations in the most general setting, and discuss their basic properties and expected properties. As a preparation, we explain basic facts on Galois representations. This course is followed by "Advanced Topics in Algebra B" in the second quarter.
To become familiar with basic notions such as Galois representations, zeta functions, etc.
Building upon them, to think what is new yourself.
