DESCRIPTION:Title: Above the Alperin Weight Conjecture\n\nAbstract: Modul
 ar representation theory is the study of representations of finite group
 s defined over a field of positive characteristic p\, where p is a prime
 . According to the local-global principle\, many aspects of the p-modula
 r representation theory of a group are determined by its p-local structu
 re. The Alperin Weight Conjecture predicts that the number of irreducibl
 e p-modular representations of a group (a global invariant) coincides wi
 th the number of its p-weights (a local invariant). In this talk\, I wil
 l introduce an extension of the Alperin Weight Conjecture that was recen
 tly introduced by Navarro: this statement unifies Alperin's conjecture w
 ith a famous character correspondence known as the Glauberman correspond
 ence. I will then show how to reduce Navarro's conjecture to a question 
 about quasi-simple groups. This is joint work with J. M. Martínez and N.
  Rizo.
