Title

Neron models of tori

Abstract

Every torus over a local field has a unique Neron model, defined over the ring of integers of that local field. Although this has been know for decades, only recently we begin to understand properties of this model and its consequences to number theory and representation theory. We will survey the known results, including the speaker’s recent joint work with C.L. Chai about congruences of Neron models.
