I received my PhD from Harvard University in May 2023, under the supervision of Mark Kisin. Here is my CV.

Starting in Fall 2023, I will be an NSF postdoc at MIT.

RESEARCH

We prove that V. Lafforgue's global Langlands correspondence is compatible with Fargues–Scholze's semisimplified local Langlands correspondence. As a consequence, we canonically lift Fargues–Scholze's construction to a non-semisimplified local Langlands correspondence for local fields of characteristic p ≥ 5. We also deduce that Fargues–Scholze's construction agrees with that of Genestier–Lafforgue, answering a question of Fargues–Scholze, Hansen, Harris, and Kaletha. The proof relies on a uniformization morphism for moduli spaces of shtukas.

Using a mixed-characteristic incarnation of fusion, we prove an analog of Nekovář–Scholl's plectic conjecture for local Shimura varieties. We apply this to obtain results on the plectic conjecture for (global) Shimura varieties after restricting to a decomposition group. Along the way, we prove a p-adic uniformization theorem for the basic locus of abelian type Shimura varieties at hyperspecial level, which is of independent interest.

We prove the plectic conjecture of Nekovář–Scholl over global function fields Q. For example, when the cocharacter is defined over Q and the structure group is a Weil restriction from a geometric degree d separable extension F/Q, consider the complex computing ℓ-adic intersection cohomology with compact support of the associated moduli space of shtukas over QI. We endow this with the structure of a complex of (Weil(F)d rtimes Sd)I-modules, which extends its structure as a complex of Weil(Q)I-modules constructed by Arinkin–Gaitsgory–Kazhdan–Raskin–Rozenblyum–Varshavsky. We show that the action of (Weil(F)d rtimes Sd)I commutes with the Hecke action, and we give a moduli-theoretic description of the action of Frobenius elements in Weil(F)d×I.

Let F be a local field of characteristic p > 0. By adapting methods of Scholze, we give a new proof of the local Langlands correspondence for GLn over F. More specifically, we construct ℓ-adic Galois representations associated with many discrete automorphic representations over global function fields, which we use to construct a map π→rec(π) from isomorphism classes of irreducible smooth representations of GLn(F) to isomorphism classes of n-dimensional semisimple continuous representations of WF. Our map rec is characterized in terms of a local compatibility condition on traces of a certain test function fτ,h, and we prove that rec equals the usual local Langlands correspondence (after forgetting the monodromy operator).
