Statement
The following is the global reciprocity conjecture for , one central part of the program. Let be an algebraic number field, let be its absolute Galois group, let , and let be a prime. Fix a field isomorphism . Let be an irreducible Galois representation. Assume that is unramified at all but finitely many places of and de Rham at the places above . Then there is a cuspidal automorphic representation of , where is the adele ring of , with the following property. For all but finitely many finite places of , both and are unramified at . Let be a Frobenius element at . Then the Satake parameters of are, up to the standard normalising twist, the images under of the eigenvalues of .
Remarks
The Langlands program is a web of conjectures proposed by Robert Langlands from 1967 on. It relates Galois representations, automorphic forms and representations of reductive groups over local and global fields. Besides reciprocity, its main parts are the principle of functoriality, which predicts transfers of automorphic representations between different reductive groups, and the local Langlands correspondence. For , reciprocity is a reformulation of class field theory in terms of Hecke characters. The modularity theorem for elliptic curves over and Serre's modularity conjecture are proved cases for and . The local Langlands correspondence for over a -adic field was proved by Harris and Taylor and, independently, by Henniart. In general, both reciprocity and functoriality remain open.
