Autour des motifs

This volume contains the third part of the lectures notes of the Asian-French summer school on algebraic geometry and number theory, which was held at the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques (Bures-sur-Yvette) and the université Paris-Sud XI (Orsay) in July 2006. This summer school was devoted to the theory of motives and its recent developments, and to related topics, notably Shimura varieties and automorphic representations.
