Representation theory of inner forms of GL(n) over a local non-archimedean field - old and new results - PART ONE

Summary: Gyorgy Buzsaki aims at understanding how neuronal circuitries of the brain support its cognitive capacities, with a primary interest in brain oscillations, synchronization and memory. His major goal is to provide rational, mechanistic explanations of cognitive functions at a descriptive level.
Over the past 35 years, Buzsaki has led the way in analyzing the functional properties of cortical neurons acting within their natural networks. He pioneered the experimental exploration of how coordinated, rhythmic neuronal activity serves physiological functions in the cerebral cortex, and in particular, how information is exchanged between the hippocampus and neocortex. For this aim, Buzsaki's lab has established some of the most difficult approaches necessary to solve these problems. His work includes innovative techniques to monitor neural activity and brain oscillation in behaving rodents from the cellular level to whole network activation.
In addition to his numerous publications and reviews, Gyorgy Buzsaki is the author of the book "Rhythms of the Brain", which discusses mechanisms and functions of neuronal synchronization. He explains the field of brain oscillations, and how oscillatory timing is the brain’s fundamental organizer of neuronal information. Among many other distinguished awards, he is the recipient of the 2011 European brain prize.
