DESCRIPTION:\n	!!! Please note this will be an in-person event!!!\n	 \n\n
 	Abstract\n	It is believed\, following the work of BKL 50 years ago\, that
  the classical dynamics of general relativity greatly simplifies close to 
  singularities such as those inside black holes or at the Big Bang. Each 
 point in space evolves separately\, with dynamics that is equivalent to th
 e motion of a particle bouncing within the fundamental domain of the modul
 ar group. I will explain how the emergent conformal and modular symmetries
  in this regime suggest possible dual formulations of the physics. The mat
 hematical language that pertains is that of L-functions. These share key p
 roperties of the Riemann zeta function\, including nontrivial zeros and a 
 representation in terms of prime numbers. I will describe the physical con
 sequences of these facts.\n	 \n\n//indico.ictp.it/event/10940/
