Artin characters, Hurwitz trees and the lifting problem

Abstract

We study finite groups of automorphisms of the pp-adic open disk. In particular, we generalize results of Green, Matignon and Henrio from cyclic groups of order pp to arbitrary finite groups. As an application, we produce a counterexample to a question of Chinburg, Guralnick and Harbater, concerning the local lifting problem for generalized quaternion groups.
