It is believed that any p-adic Galois representation which is potentially semistable arises from a modular form. The main theorem of Wiles establishes this modularity when the representation in question satisfies various technical…

There is a lifting from a non-CM elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ to a paramodular form $f$ of degree $2$ and weight $3$ given by the symmetric cube map. We find the level of $f$ in an explicit way in terms of the coefficients of the…

The distribution of primes raising the level of even Galois representations of tetrahedral type is studied. Data are presented on primes $v\leq 10^8$ raising the level of $3$-adic even representations of various conductors. Based on the…

A result of Dieulefait-Wiese proves the existence of modular eigenforms of weight 2 for which the image of every associated residual Galois representation is as large as possible. We generalize this result to eigenforms of general even…

In this article I study the variation of Selmer groups in families of modular Galois representations that are congruent modulo a fixed prime $p \geq 5$. Motivated by analogies with Goldfeld's conjecture on ranks in quadratic twist families…

It is known that for any elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ and any integer $m$ co-prime to $30,$ the induced Galois representation $\rho_{E,m}: \text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q}) \longrightarrow \text{GL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})$…

Let $F$ be a number field, let $N\geq 3$ be an integer, and let $k$ be a finite field of characteristic $\ell$. We show that if $\rb:G_F\longrightarrow GL_N(k)$ is a continuous representation with image of $\rb$ containing $SL_N(k)$ then,…
