| Citation | For multiple breakthroughs in diverse areas of algebraic number theory. These include, among many others, the proof, with Clozel, that the 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th symmetric power L-functions of an elliptic curve over the rational numbers are entire; the proof with his collaborators that any G-hat local system on a curve over a finite field are potentially automorphic; and the introduction of novel techniques and constructions in arithmetic invariant theory, which combine Lie theory with the study of singularities and their deformations, to obtain a number of new results on the arithmetic of curves. |
