Description
In the last years the generalized `Ramanujan Conjecture' proved for modular forms by Eichler, Shimura and Deligne has been extended to higher rank automorphic forms on GL(n). I will sketch the proof, starting from `classical' case and introducing on the way several (deep) intermediate results due to many people. The lectures will be of 2 hours duration with a small break in-between.
