This book outlines a functorial theory of integral models of (mixed) Shimura varieties and of their toroidal compactifications, for odd primes of good reduction. This is the integral version, developed in the author's thesis, of the theory invented by Deligne and Pink in the rational case. In addition, the author develops a theory of arithmetic Chern classes of integral automorphic vector bundles with singular metrics using the work of Burgos, Kramer and Kühn. The main application is calculating arithmetic volumes or "heights" of Shimura varieties of orthogonal type using Borcherds' famous modular forms with their striking product formula--an idea due to Bruinier-Burgos-Kühn and Kudla. This should be seen as an Arakelov analogue of the classical calculation of volumes of orthogonal locally symmetric spaces by Siegel and Weil. In the latter theory, the volumes are related to special values of (normalized) Siegel Eisenstein series. In this book, it is proved that the Arakelov analogues are related to special derivatives of such Eisenstein series. This result gives substantial evidence in the direction of Kudla's conjectures in arbitrary dimensions. The validity of the full set of conjectures of Kudla, in turn, would give a conceptual proof and far-reaching generalizations of the work of Gross and Zagier on the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. Titles in this series are co-published with the Centre de Recherches Mathématiques.
Continuous Symmetries and Integrability of Discrete Equations

This book on integrable systems and symmetries presents new results on applications of symmetries and integrability techniques to the case of equations defined on the lattice. This relatively new field has many applications, for example, in describing the evolution of crystals and molecular systems defined on lattices, and in finding numerical approximations for differential equations preserving their symmetries. The book contains three chapters and five appendices. The first chapter is an introduction to the general ideas about symmetries, lattices, differential difference and partial difference equations and Lie point symmetries defined on them. Chapter 2 deals with integrable and linearizable systems in two dimensions. The authors start from the prototype of integrable and linearizable partial differential equations, the Korteweg de Vries and the Burgers equations. Then they consider the best known integrable differential difference and partial difference equations. Chapter 3 considers generalized symmetries and conserved densities as integrability criteria. The appendices provide details which may help the readers' understanding of the subjects presented in Chapters 2 and 3. This book is written for PhD students and early researchers, both in theoretical physics and in applied mathematics, who are interested in the study of symmetries and integrability of difference equations.
Cocycles de groupe pour $mathrm {GL}_n$ et arrangements d?hyperplans

Ce livre constitue un expos‚ d‚taill‚ de la s‚rie de cours donn‚s en 2020 par le Prof. Nicolas Bergeron, titulaire de la Chaire Aisenstadt au CRM de Montr‚al. L'objet de ce texte est une ample g‚n‚ralisation d'une famille d'identit‚s classiques, notamment la formule d'addition de la fonction cotangente ou celle des s‚ries d'Eisenstein. Le livre relie ces identit‚s … la cohomologie de certains sous-groupes arithm‚tiques du groupe lin‚aire g‚n‚ral. Il rend explicite ces relations au moyen de la th‚orie des symboles modulaires de rang sup‚rieur, d‚voilant finalement un lien concret entre des objets de nature topologique et alg‚brique. This book provides a detailed exposition of the material presented in a series of lectures given in 2020 by Prof. Nicolas Bergeron while he held the Aisenstadt Chair at the CRM in Montr‚al. The topic is a broad generalization of certain classical identities such as the addition formulas for the cotangent function and for Eisenstein series. The book relates these identities to the cohomology of arithmetic subgroups of the general linear group. It shows that the relations can be made explicit using the theory of higher rank modular symbols, ultimately unveiling a concrete link between topological and algebraic objects. I think that the text ?Cocycles de groupe pour $mathrm{GL}_n$ et arrangements d'hyperplans? is terrific. I like how it begins in a leisurely, enticing way with an elementary example that neatly gets to the topic. The construction of these ?meromorphic function?-valued modular symbols are fundamental objects, and play (and will continue to play) an important role. ?Barry Mazur, Harvard University
