We show that for a Picard modular form, the existence of companion forms is equivalent to the splitting properties of the associated local Galois representation. This result is obtained by using the computation of the monodromy group and…

We show that if two continuous semi-simple \(\ell \)-adic Galois representations are locally potentially equivalent at a sufficiently large set of places then they are globaly potentially equivalent. We also prove an analogous result for…

This is an exposition of our joint work with Kakde, Silliman, and Wang, in which we prove a version of Ribet's Lemma for $\mathrm{GL}_2$ in the residually indistinguishable case. We suppose we are given a Galois representation taking values…

Let p be a prime and F a totally real field in which p is unramified. We consider mod p Hilbert modular forms for F, defined as sections of automorphic line bundles on Hilbert modular varieties of level prime to p in characteristic p. For a…

Let V be a p-adic representation of the absolute Galois group G of Q_p that becomes crystalline over a finite tame extension, and assume p odd. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for V to be isomorphic to the Tate module V_p(A)…

Consider a family of modular forms of weight 2, all of whose residual $\pmod{p}$ Galois representations are isomorphic. It is well-known that their corresponding Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariants may vary. In this paper, we study this variation…

In this note we produce examples of converging sequences of Galois representations, and study some of their properties. Some of the results here are used in the preprint math.NT/0210296.

Let F be a non-Archimedean locally compact field of residue characteristic p, let D be a finite dimensional central division F-algebra and let R be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from p. To any irreducible smooth…

Suppose that F/F+ is a CM extension of number fields in which the prime p splits completely and every other prime is unramified. Fix a place w|p of F. Suppose that rbar : Gal(F-bar/F) -> GL_3(Fp-bar) is a continuous irreducible Galois…

In this article we consider mod p modular Galois representations which are unramified at p such that the Frobenius element at p acts through a scalar matrix. The principal result states that the multiplicity of any such representation is…

The conjecture of Serre referred in the title is the one about modularity of odd Galois representations into GL(2,F) where F is a finite field of characteristic p. We present an analogous conjecture where GL(2) is replaced by GL(n). We…

In a previous article we introduced various moduli stacks of two-dimensional tamely potentially Barsotti-Tate representations of the absolute Galois group of a p-adic local field, as well as related moduli stacks of Breuil-Kisin modules…

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…

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…

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.

In his previous paper (Math. Res. Letters 7(2000), 123--132) the author proved that in characteristic zero the jacobian $J(C)$ of a hyperelliptic curve $C: y^2=f(x)$ has only trivial endomorphisms over an algebraic closure of the ground…

The goal of this paper is to remove the irreducibility hypothesis in a theorem of Richard Taylor describing the image of complex conjugations by $p$-adic Galois representations associated with regular, algebraic, essentially self-dual,…

Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime. Let $k = b + c(p-1)$ be an integer in $[2p+2, p^2 - p +3]$, where $b \in [2,p]$ and $c \in [2, p-1]$. We prove local constancy in the weight space of the mod $p$ reduction of certain two-dimensional crystalline…

In this article, we study deformations of conjugate self-dual Galois representations. The study has two folds. First, we prove an R=T type theorem for a conjugate self-dual Galois representation with coefficients in a finite field,…

In this article we study local constancy of the mod $p$ reduction of certain $2$-dimensional crystalline representations of $\mathrm{Gal}\left(\bar{\mathbb{Q}}_p/\mathbb{Q}_p\right)$ using the mod $p$ local Langlands correspondence. We…
