The Langlands program ties together seemingly unrelated areas of Mathematics. Recently, in the context of the Geometric Langlands correspondence, novel connections with Theoretical Physics have emerged, thus becoming one of the most active areas of research in both Mathematics and Theoretical Physics. Australia has a number of world-renowned experts, including the two CI's, in various aspects of the Langlands program, and is therefore well-placed to make seminal contributions. Being involved in these new developments is of crucial importance to the health of Mathematics and Theoretical Physics in Australia. An integral part of this proposal is student involvement and postgraduate training.

朗兰兹计划将看似无关的数学领域联系在一起。最近，在几何朗兰兹对应的背景下，与理论物理的新联系已经出现，从而成为数学和理论物理研究中最活跃的领域之一。 澳大利亚在朗兰兹计划的各个方面拥有许多世界知名的专家，包括两名CI，因此能够做出开创性的贡献。 参与这些新的发展对澳大利亚数学和理论物理的健康至关重要。这项建议的一个组成部分是学生参与和研究生培训。
