Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

John Bergdall's research focuses on number theory, specifically p-adic L-functions and their connections to modular forms and Galois representations. He investigates the properties of these mathematical objects, exploring their structure and behavior in different contexts.

Bergdall's work has been supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF), with grants totaling $177,717. One NSF award of $15,000 funded a conference on modular forms, L-functions, and eigenvarieties. A larger collaborative research grant of $162,717 supports his work on the slopes of modular forms and moduli stacks of Galois representations.

His recent publications delve into areas such as p-adic L-functions for Hilbert modular forms, reductions of semistable representations, and the relationship between slopes of modular forms and reducible Galois representations. He also explores foundational topics in abstract algebra, including Huber rings and valuation spectra. Bergdall's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 5 and 90 total citations across 22 publications.
