In this paper we study formal moduli for wildly ramified Galois covering. We prove a local-global principle. We then focus on the infinitesimal deformations of the Z/pZ-covers. We explicitly compute a deformation of an automorphism of order…
Let f be a newform of weight at least 3 with Fourier coefficients in a number field K. We show that the universal deformation ring of the mod lambda Galois representation associated to f is unobstructed, and thus isomorphic to a power…
For a rational prime $p \geq 3$ and an integer $n \geq 2$, we study the modularity of continuous 2-dimensional mod $p^n$ Galois representations of $\Gal(\bar{\Q}/\Q)$ whose residual representations are odd and absolutely irreducible. Under…
To a hyperbolic smooth curve defined over a number-field one naturally associates an "anabelian" representation of the absolute Galois group of the base field landing in outer automorphism group of the algebraic fundamental group. In this…
Let $p\geq 7$ be a prime and $n>1$ be a natural number. We show that there exist infinitely many Galois representations $\varrho:Gal(\bar{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q})\rightarrow GL_{n}(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ which are unramified outside $\{p, \infty\}$…
We give a criterion for two l-adic Galois representations of an algebraic number field to be isomorphic when restricted to a decomposition group, in terms of the global representations mod l. This is applied to prove a generalization of a…
We study the rigid generic fiber $\mathcal{X}^\square_{\overline\rho}$ of the framed deformation space of the trivial representation $\overline\rho: G_K \to \text{GL}_n(k)$ where $k$ is a finite field of characteristic $p>0$ and $G_K$ is…
We study short crystalline, minimal, essentially self-dual deformations of a mod $p$ non-semisimple Galois representation $\bar{\sigma}$ with $\bar{\sigma}^{\rm ss}=\chi^{k-2} \oplus \rho \oplus \chi^{k-1}$, where $\chi$ is the mod $p$…
We study obstructed deformation problems for two-dimensional residual Galois representations arising from weight~$2$ newforms of level~$N$. Using Poitou-Tate duality, we isolate local and global sources of obstructions and give concrete…
We show the vanishing of adjoint Bloch-Kato Selmer groups of automorphic Galois representations over CM fields. This proves their rigidity in the sense that they have no deformations which are de Rham. In order for this to make sense we…
We prove, under mild hypotheses, that there are no irreducible two-dimensional_even_ Galois representations of $\Gal(\Qbar/\Q)$ which are de Rham with distinct Hodge--Tate weights. This removes the "ordinary" hypothesis required in previous…
We prove new automorphy lifting theorems for residually reducible Galois representations of unitary type in which the residual representation is permitted to have an arbitrary number of irreducible constituents.
We construct and study the moduli of continuous representations of a profinite group with integral $p$-adic coefficients. We present this moduli space over the moduli space of continuous pseudorepresentations and show that this morphism is…
We compute the universal deformation ring of an odd Galois two dimensional representation of Gal$(M/Q)$ with an upper triangular image, where $M$ is the maximal abelian pro-$p$-extension of $F_{\infty}$ unramified outside a finite set of…
Let $F/F_0$ be a quadratic extension of non-Archimedean locally compact fields of residual characteristic $p\neq2$ with Galois automorphism $\sigma$, and let $R$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $\ell\notin\{0,p\}$. We…
If a $p$-adic Galois representation $\rho_{f,\nu}:\Gamma_{\mathbb Q} \to \GL_2(E_{f,\nu})$ attached to some eigenform $f$ is residually reducible it will have 2 non-isomorphic reductions, which have the same semi-simplification. In this…
This paper studies the Unramified Fontaine-Mazur Conjecture for $ p $-adic Galois representations and its generalizations. We prove some basic cases of the conjecture and provide some useful criterions for verifying it. In addition, we…
We interpret Galois covers in terms of particular monoidal functors, extending the correspondence between torsors and fiber functors. As applications we characterize tame $G$-covers between normal varieties for finite and \'etale group…
We prove the Sato-Tate conjecture for Hilbert modular forms. More precisely, we prove the natural generalisation of the Sato-Tate conjecture for regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations of $\GL_2(\A_F)$, $F$ a totally real…
Let $G$ be a split reductive group with $\dim Z(G) \leq 1$. We show that for any prime $p$ that is large enough relative to $G$, there is a finitely ramified Galois representation $\rho \colon \Gamma_{\mathbb Q} \to G(\mathbb Z_p)$ with…
