The main result of this article states that the Galois representation attached to a Hilbert modular eigenform defined over F_p^bar of parallel weight 1 and level prime to p is unramified above p. This includes the important case of…
We prove a new automorphy lifting theorem for l-adic representations where we impose a new condition at l, which we call `potential diagonalizability'. This result allows for `change of weight' and seems to be substantially more flexible…
We study obstructed deformation problems for two-dimensional residual Galois representations arising from weight~$2$ newforms of level~$N$. Using Poitou-Tate duality, we isolate local and global sources of obstructions and give concrete…
Building on lifting results of Ramakrishna, Khare and Ramakrishna proved a purely Galois-theoretic level-raising theorem for two-dimensional odd representations of the Galois group of Q. In this paper, we generalize these techniques from…
We prove several results concerning the existence of potentially crystalline lifts with prescribed Hodge-Tate weights and inertial types of a given n-dimensional mod p representation of the absolute Galois group of K, where K/Q_p is a…
For any simple algebraic group $G$ of exceptional type, we construct geometric $\ell$-adic Galois representations with algebraic monodromy group equal to $G$, in particular producing the first such examples in types $\mathrm{F}_4$ and…
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…
In this paper we study deformations of mod $p$ Galois representations $\tau$ (over an imaginary quadratic field $F$) of dimension $2$ whose semi-simplification is the direct sum of two characters $\tau_1$ and $\tau_2$. As opposed to our…
We study the crystalline universal deformation ring R (and its ideal of reducibility I) of a mod p Galois representation rho_0 of dimension n whose semisimplification is the direct sum of two absolutely irreducible mutually non-isomorphic…
Let $\Gamma$ be either i) the absolute Galois group of a local field $F$, or ii) the topological fundamental group of a closed connected orientable surface of genus $g$. In case i), assume that $\mu_{p^2} \subset F$. We give an elementary…
We study the possible weights of an irreducible 2-dimensional modular mod p representation of the absolute Galois group of F, where F is a totally real field which is totally ramified at p, and the representation is tamely ramified at the…
We determine semisimple reductions of irreducible, 2-dimensional crystalline representations of the absolute Galois group $\text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}_p}/\mathbb{Q}_{p^f})$. To this end, we provide explicit representatives for the…
We prove automorphy lifting results for certain essentially conjugate self-dual $p$-adic Galois representations $\rho$ over CM imaginary fields $F$, which satisfy in particular that $p$ splits in $F$, and that the restriction of $\rho$ on…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $n$ an integer $\geq 2$, and $L$ a finite extension of $\mathrm{Q}_p$. Let $\rho_L$ be an $n$-dimensional (non-critical but not necessary generic) potentially crystalline $p$-adic Galois representation of the…
We define a derived version of Mazur's Galois deformation ring. It is a pro-simplicial ring $\mathcal{R}$ classifying deformations of a fixed Galois representation to simplicial coefficient rings; its zeroth homotopy group $\pi_0…
In this paper we show that two dimensional (mod p) Galois representations satisfying mild hypotheses can be lifted to p-adic Galois representations ramified at infinitely many primes such that the characteristic polynomials of Frobenius at…
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 $\{p, \infty\}$…
Let F be a number field with adele ring A_F, and \pi an isobaric, algebraic automorphic representation of GL_4(A_F) of a fixed archimedean weight, which is quasi-regular, meaning that at every archimedean place v of F, the 4-dimensional…
Lifting theorems form an important collection of tools in showing that Galois representations are associated to automorphic forms. (Key examples in dimension n>2 are the lifting theorems of Clozel, Harris and Taylor and of Geraghty.) All…
In this work we compute the universal framed deformation functor for a reducible Galois representation $\rho$ given by direct sum of 2-dimensional representations $\rho_i$ coming from p-divisible groups. We impose the local conditions of…
