Alexander Bertoloni Meli (Boston University): An Invitation to the Categorical Langlands Conjecture

I will introduce and motivate the local Langlands program for
p-adic groups starting from the perspective of understanding the
absolute Galois group of the p-adic numbers. I'll explain why we
might want to upgrade the Langlands correspondence to an
equivalence of categories as conjectured by Fargues and Scholze
and discuss what progress has been made in proving this conjecture.
