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…

Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_{p}$ and let $\Gamma$ be the Galois group of the cyclotomic extension of $K$. Fontaine's theory gives a classification of $p$-adic representations of $\mathrm{Gal}\left(\overline{K}/K\right)$ in…

Let K_{f} be the finite unramified extension of Q_{p} of degree f and E any finite large enough coefficient field containing K_{f}. We construct analytic families of \'etale (Phi,Gamma)-modules which give rise to families of crystalline…

In this paper, we investigate Boston's generalization of the unramified Fontaine-Mazur conjecture for Galois representations. From a group-theoretic perspective, we first show that the conjecture can be reduced to the case of certain…

We study potentially crystalline deformation rings for a residual, ordinary Galois representation $\overline{\rho}: G_{\mathbb{Q}_p}\rightarrow \mathrm{GL}_3(\mathbb{F}_p)$. We consider deformations with Hodge-Tate weights $(0,1,2)$ and…

This paper establishes restrictions on the possible Galois actions on the pro-l-unipotent fundamental group of a smooth variety X of good reduction over a local field K. In particular, if X is proper and l is not equal to the residue…

Parahoric group schemes are certain possibly non-reductive, smooth, affine integral models of reductive group schemes defined over a henselian discretely valued field $K$ whose residue field is perfect. We show that any such group scheme…

Let K/F be a cyclic field extension of odd prime degree. We consider Galois embedding problems involving Galois groups with common quotient Gal(K/F) such that corresponding normal subgroups are indecomposable Fp[Gal(K/F)]-modules. For these…

We adapt a technique of Kisin to construct and study crystalline deformation rings of $G_K$ for a finite extension $K/\mathbb{Q}_p$. This is done by considering a moduli space of Breuil--Kisin modules, satisfying an additional Galois…

We consider the distribution of the Galois groups $\operatorname{Gal}(K^{\operatorname{un}}/K)$ of maximal unramified extensions as $K$ ranges over $\Gamma$-extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ or $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$. We prove two properties of…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $n>2$ an integer, and $F$ a CM field in which $p$ splits completely. Assume that a continuous automorphic Galois representation…

Suppose a residually finite group $G$ acts cocompactly on a contractible complex with strict fundamental domain $Q$, where the stabilizers are either trivial or have normal $\mathbb{Z}$-subgroups. Let $\partial Q$ be the subcomplex of $Q$…

Let $X$ be a fine and saturated log scheme, and let $G$ be a commutative finite flat group scheme over the underlying scheme of $X$. If $G$-torsors for the fppf topology can be thought of as being unramified objects by nature, then…

Let Gamma be a semidirect product of the form Z^n rtimes Z/p where p is prime and the Z/p-action on Z^n is free away from the origin. We will compute the topological K-theory of the real and complex group C*-algebra of Gamma and show that…

Cyclic, ramified extensions $L/K$ of degree $p$ of local fields with residue characteristic $p$ are fairly well understood. Unless $\mbox{char}(K)=0$ and $L=K(\sqrt[p]{\pi_K})$ for some prime element $\pi_K\in K$, they are defined by an…

Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and choose a uniformizer $\pi\in K$, and put $K_\infty:=K(\sqrt[p^\infty]{\pi})$. We introduce a new technique using restriction to $\Gal(\ol K/K_\infty)$ to study flat deformation rings. We…
