The theory o f complex multiplication\, one of the grand achievements of the subject in the 19th century\, asserts that the values of modular functions at quadra tic imaginary arguments generate (essentially all) abelian extensions of i maginary quadratic fields. Hilbert's twelfth problem concerns the generali sation of this theory to other base fields. I will describe an ongoing wor k in collaboration with Jan Vonk which identifies a class of functions tha t seem to play the role of modular functions for real quadratic fields. A key difference with the classical setting is that they are meromorphic fun ctions of a p-adic variable (defined in the framework of 'rigid analysis' introduced by Tate) rather than of a complex variable.\n DTSTART:20171006T200000Z DTEND:20171006T210000Z LOCATION:room 6254\, CA\, QC\, montreal\, Pav.
