Abstract

Since the beginning of the century, several approaches to Langlands functoriality conjecture have been proposed by Langlands himself, by Braverman-Kazhdan and Lafforgue, .... In this lecture I will explain how these ideas may be combined and connected to recents works on singularities of certain arc spaces.
