We prove new automorphy lifting theorems for essentially conjugate self-dual Galois representations into $GL_n$. Existing theorems require that the residual representation have 'big' image, in a certain technical sense. Our theorems are…

Taylor-Wiles type lifting theorems allow one to deduce that for $\rho$ a "sufficiently nice" $l$-adic representation of the absolute Galois group of a number field whose semi-simplified reduction modulo $l$, denoted $\overline{\rho}$, comes…

Clozel, Harris and Taylor have recently proved a modularity lifting theorem of the following general form: if rho is an l-adic representation of the absolute Galois group of a number field for which the residual representation rho-bar comes…

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.

Let $G$ be a finite classical group of Lie type of rank $\ell$, defined over a field of characteristic $p>2$. In this work, we classify the irreducible representations of $G$ whose dimensions are bounded by a constant proportional to…

Refining arguments of Hyunsuk Moon, under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we prove the non-existence of irreducible mod 2 Galois representations unramified outside 2 of dimensions $\leq 4$, and of totally real such…

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…

Let $F$ be a CM number field. We generalize existing automorphy lifting theorems for regular residually irreducible $p$-adic Galois representations over $F$ by relaxing the big image assumption on the residual representation.

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 study irreducible mod p representations, valued in general reductive groups, of the Galois group of a number field. When the number field is totally real, we show that odd representations satisfying local ramification hypotheses and a…

We study the weight part of (a generalisation of) Serre's conjecture for mod l Galois representations associated to automorphic representations on unitary groups of rank n for odd primes l. Given a modular Galois representation, we use…

In recent work, the authors proved a general result on lifting $G$-irreducible odd Galois representations $\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{F}/F) \to G(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_{\ell})$, with $F$ a totally real number field and $G$ a reductive group, to…

Let $p>5$ be a prime integer and $K/\mathbb{Q}_p$ a finite ramified extension with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}$ and uniformizer $\pi$. Let $n>1$ be a positive integer and $\rho_n:G_\mathbb{Q} \to \text{GL}_2(\mathcal{O}/\pi^n)$ be a…

It is proved that every two-dimensional residual Galois representation of the absolute Galois group of an arbitrary number field lifts to a characteristic zero $p$-adic representation, if local lifting problems at places above $p$ are…

Fix a prime $p > 2$. Let $\rho : \text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q}) \to \text{GL}_2(\mathbb{I})$ be the Galois representation coming from a non-CM irreducible component $\mathbb{I}$ of Hida's $p$-ordinary Hecke algebra. Assume the…

Given a compatible system of n-dimension l-adic Galois representations arising from \'etale cohomology of any complete, non-singular variety, we prove that for sufficiently large prime l, type A Galois image (in the Cartan-Killing…

Let $\rho$ be a mod $\ell$ Galois representation attached to a newform $f$. Explicit methods are sometimes able to determine the image of $\rho$, or even the number field cut out by $\rho$, provided that $\ell$ and the level $N$ of $f$ are…

Let $k$ and $N$ be positive integers with $k\ge2$ even. In this paper we give general explicit upper-bounds in terms of $k$ and $N$ from which all the residual representations $\bar{\rho}_{f,\lambda}$ attached to non-CM newforms of weight…

We consider lifting of mod p representations to mod p^2 representations in the setting of representations of (i) finite groups; (ii) absolute Galois groups of abstract fields; and (iii) absolute Galois groups of local and global fields.

In a previous article, the second author proved that the image of the Galois representation mod $\lambda$ attached to a Hilbert modular newform is large or all but finitely many primes $\lambda$, if the form is not a theta series. In this…
