Sep 25, 2013 at 3:45 comment added user40463 Perhaps the talk by Luc Illusie at the upcoming Deligne Day festival October 5 in New York ( see <a href="deligneday-morning-eorg.eventbrite.com/">Deligne Day Morning Session</a> ) will give some specific answers?
Aug 11, 2013 at 8:03 comment added al-Hwarizmi The answer is clear but at least as ambigious as the question is: all best ideas which Deligne thought but kept for himself in mind and never published.
Mar 20, 2013 at 17:39 comment added anon @ o-o'HO2. Only five out of thirteen Abel prize winners are Fields medalists, so that is not a very good predictor.
Mar 20, 2013 at 16:04 comment added Rodrigo A. Pérez Congratulations to Deligne on the Abel Prize, and to o-o'HO2 on predicting it!

Mar 20, 2013 at 14:48 comment added user32199 In trying to predict this year's prize, I searched Wikipedia for Fields medalists over 65 who hadn't yet won the Abel prize. Deligne looked like a good candidate. So then I looked for a question to ask.
Mar 20, 2013 at 14:40 comment added user32199 @Alain Valette: I have rewritten the question in present tense, if that was what you were commenting on.

Mar 14, 2013 at 15:06 comment added ACL The proof that the Weil conjectures implies the Ramanujan conjecture on coefficients of modular forms only exists as a Bourbaki Seminar. Serre wrote a few times (as a footnote in his Course in Arithmetic, or in his Complete Works) that he regrets this. Around 10 years ago, Brian Conrad had undertaken to write a book on the topic, but I don't think that the book has appeared (yet).
Mar 14, 2013 at 14:40 comment added Alain Valette I wonder how Deligne will feel if he reads that question...
Mar 14, 2013 at 14:26 comment added DamienC Is this question appropriate for mathoverflow? I personnally believe not: what kind of answer can one expect?
