Description:
This book provides an excellent detailed review of an important aspect of the geometric Langlands program, namely, the role of representation theory of affine Kac-Moody algebras (or loop algebras). It provides clear and insightful introductions to such notions as vertex algebras, the Langlands dual group, connections on the punctured disc, representation theory of loop algebras, etc.

Lectures on Shimura Varietiesby A. Genestier, B.C. Ngo
The goal of these lectures is to explain the representability of moduli space abelian varieties with polarization, endomorphism and level structure, due to Mumford and the description of the set of its points over a finite field, due to Kottwitz.
