Formal deformation of curves with group scheme action

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v2 Number Theory

Abstract

We study equivariant deformations of singular curves with an action of a finite flat group scheme, using a simplified version of Illusie's equivariant cotangent complex. We apply these methods in a special case which is relevant for the study of the stable reduction of three point covers.
