Title:
The $p$-curvature conjecture and monodromy about simple closed loops

Speaker:
Ananth Shankar

Abstract:
The Grothendieck-Katz $p$-curvature conjecture is an analogue of the Hasse Principle for differential equations. It states that a set of arithmetic differential equations on a variety has finite monodromy if its $p$-curvature vanishes modulo $p$, for almost all primes $p$. We prove that if the variety is a generic curve, then every simple closed loop has finite monodromy.
