The moduli of smooth hypersurfaces with level structure

Algebraic Geometry 2016-12-15 v4 Number Theory

Abstract

We construct the moduli space of smooth hypersurfaces with level NN structure over Z[1/N]\mathbb{Z}[1/N]. As an application we show that, for NN large enough, the stack of smooth hypersurfaces over Z[1/N]\mathbb{Z}[1/N] is uniformisable by a smooth affine scheme. To prove our results, we use the Lefschetz trace formula to show that automorphisms of smooth hypersurfaces act faithfully on their cohomology. We also prove a global Torelli theorem for smooth cubic threefolds over fields of odd characteristic.

10 pages. Added new application to Torelli theorems for cubic threefolds. Corrected mistake in previous version - results now only apply to tame automorphisms
