Title: Evolution of the Newton stratification
Abstract: The notion of Newton stratification originates from Grothendieck's work on the moduli space of abelian varieties. Since its inception, the notion has significantly evolved to find many surprising applications in arithmetic geometry. In this talk, we provide a friendly overview of this notion and discuss some recent developments, with a particular focus on the question of determining all nonempty strata.
