Deformation conditions for pseudorepresentations

Number Theory 2019-12-04 v3

Abstract

Given a property of representations satisfying a basic stability condition, Ramakrishna developed a variant of Mazur's Galois deformation theory for representations with that property. We introduce an axiomatic definition of pseudorepresentations with such a property. Among other things, we show that pseudorepresentations with a property enjoy a good deformation theory, generalizing Ramakrishna's theory to pseudorepresentations.
