It did, of course, in so mamy ways that it is not possible to describe them all. One obvious thing is his work on the Weil's conjecture, with when sompleted by Deligne leads to a proof of the Ramanujan's conjecture. An other, perhaps even more important thing, is G.'s theory of moduli scheme, used in the theory and study of modular curves (first in the very influential Deligne-Rapoport's paper) and more generally Shimura's varieties. | |
