Dear All,

You are most cordially invited to a special ICTP Maths Colloquium on “On

Châu is a Vietnamese-French mathematician at the University of Chicago, 
best known for proving the fundamental lemma for automorphic forms 
proposed by Robert Langlands and Diana Shelstad. He is the first 
Vietnamese national to have received the 2010 Fields Medal “For his 
proof of the fundamental lemma in the theory of automorphic forms 
through the introduction of new algebro-geomatric methods". The other
