Title: A modest attempt at defining motivic Fourier transform in algebraically closed valued fields

Abstract:

I will review some basic facts in definable combinatorics and Grothendieck rings. Then I will describe the Hrushovski-Kazhdan integration theory (again) and some ideas on how to define Fourier transform in it.
