We study group actions on regular models of curves. If $X$ is a smooth curve defined over the fraction field $K$ of a complete d.v.r. $R$, every tamely ramified extension $K'/K$ with Galois group $G$ induces a $G$-action on $X_{K'}$. In…

Let A be the N\'eron model of an abelian variety A_K over the fraction field K of a discrete valuation ring R. Due to work of Mazur-Messing, there is a functorial way to prolong the universal extension of A_K by a vector group to a smooth…

Let $X$ be a smooth geometrically connected projective curve over the field of fractions of a discrete valuation ring $R$, and $\mathfrak{m}$ a modulus on $X$, given by a closed subscheme of $X$ which is geometrically reduced. The…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a discretely valued field. Edixhoven has defined a filtration on the special fiber of the N\'eron model of $A$ that measures the behaviour of the N\'eron model under tame base change. We interpret the…

Let $\mathcal{O}_K$ be a complete discrete valuation ring with field of fractions $K$ and algebraically closed residue field $k.$ Let $G$ be a smooth connected commutative algebraic group over $K$ which does not contain a copy of…

We gives an explicit genus 3 curve over Q such that the Galois action on the torsion points of its Jacobian is a large as possible. That such curves exist is a consequence of a theorem of D. Zureick-Brown and the author; however, those…

We investigate N\'eron models of Jacobians of singular curves over strictly Henselian discretely valued fields, and their behaviour under tame base change. For a semiabelian variety, this behaviour is governed by a finite sequence of (a…

Malle proposed a conjecture for counting the number of $G$-extensions $L/K$ with discriminant bounded above by $X$, denoted $N(K,G;X)$, where $G$ is a fixed transitive subgroup $G\subset S_n$ and $X$ tends towards infinity. We introduce a…

Suppose $X$ is a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p=2$. We prove that the de Rham cohomology of $X$ decomposes into pieces indexed by the branch points of the hyperelliptic…

We study a trace formula for tamely ramified abelian varieties $A$ over a complete discretely valued field, which expresses the Euler characteristic of the special fiber of the N\'eron model of $A$ in terms of the Galois action on the…

Let $X$ be a proper, smooth, and geometrically connected curve over a non-archimedean local field $K$. In this paper, we relate the component group of the N\'eron model of the Jacobian of $X$ to the Brauer group of $X$.

We study $p$-group Galois covers $X \rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$ with only one fully ramified point. These covers are important because of the Katz-Gabber compactification of Galois actions on complete local rings. The sequence of ramification…

We develop a new approach to construction of numerical invariants for ramified coverings of algebraic surfaces of prime characteristic. Let A be a two-dimensional regular local ring of prime characteristic p with algebraically closed…

We prove that if $f:X \rightarrow A$ is a morphism from a smooth projective variety $X$ to an abelian variety $A$ over a number field $K$, and $G$ is a subgroup of automorphisms of $X$ satisfying certain properties, and if a prime $p$…

If $X'= ({\mathbb B} / \Gamma)'$ is a torsion free toroidal compactification of a discrete ball quotient $X_o={\mathbb B} / \Gamma$ and $\xi : (X', T = X'\setminus X_o) \rightarrow (X, D = \xi (T))$ is the blow-down of the $(-1)$-curves to…

Consider a finite group $G$ acting on a Riemann surface $S$, and the associated branched Galois cover $\pi_G:S \to Y=S/G$. We introduce the concept of geometric signature for the action of $G$, and we show that it captures the information…

We study the arithmetic of curves and Jacobians endowed with the action of a finite group $G$. This includes a study of the basic properties, as $G$-modules, of their $\ell$-adic representations, Selmer groups, rational points and…

Let $q$ be a prime with $q \equiv 7 \mod 8$, and let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-q})$. Then $2$ splits in $K$, and we write $\mathfrak{p}$ for either of the primes $K$ above $2$. Let $K_\infty$ be the unique $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension of $K$…

For a given positive integer $n$ and $K/\mathbb{Q}_p$ a finite extension of ramification degree $e$, we determine the number of finite Galois extensions $L/K$ with inertia degree $f$ and a single nonnegative ramification jump at $n$ as long…

Let C/K be a curve over a local field. We study the natural semilinear action of Galois on the minimal regular model of C over a field F where it becomes semistable. This allows us to describe the Galois action on the l-adic Tate module of…
