This volume contains the proceedings of the conference Automorphic
Forms and Related Geometry: Assessing the Legacy of I.I.
Piatetski-Shapiro, held from April 23-27, 2012, at Yale University,
New Haven, CT. Ilya I. Piatetski-Shapiro, who passed away on 21
February 2009, was a leading figure in the theory of automorphic
forms. The conference attempted both to summarize and consolidate
the progress that was made during Piatetski-Shapiro's lifetime by
him and a substantial group of his co-workers, and to promote
future work by identifying fruitful directions of further
investigation. It was organized around several themes that
reflected Piatetski-Shapiro's main foci of work and that have
promise for future development: functoriality and converse
theorems; local and global L -functions and their periods; p -adic
L -functions and arithmetic geometry; complex geometry; and
analytic number theory. In each area, there were talks to review
the current state of affairs with special attention to
Piatetski-Shapiro's contributions, and other talks to report on
current work and to outline promising avenues for continued
progress. The contents of this volume reflect most of the talks
that were presented at the conference as well as a few additional
contributions. They all represent various aspects of the legacy of
Piatetski-Shapiro.
