DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Amina Abdurrahman\nhosted by Tim Browning\nAbstract: W
 e give a purely topological formula for the square class of the central va
 lue of the L-function of a symplectic representation on a curve. We also f
 ormulate a topological analogue of the statement\, in which the central va
 lue of the L-function is replaced by Reidemeister torsion of 3-manifolds. 
 This is related to the theory of epsilon factors in number theory and Meye
 rs signature formula in topology among other topics. We will present some 
 of these ideas and sketch aspects of the proof. This is joint work with Ak
 shay Venkatesh.
