For an algebraic stack $\sX$ flat and of finite presentation over a scheme $S$, we introduce various notions of {\em relative connected components} and {\em relative irreducible components}. The main distinction between these notions is…
To generalize the notion of Galois closure for separable field extensions, we devise a notion of $G$-closure for algebras of commutative rings $R\to A$, where $A$ is locally free of rank $n$ as an $R$-module and $G$ is a subgroup of…
In this paper I explore the structure of the fields of definition of Galois branched covers of the projective line over \bar Q. The first main result states that every mere cover model has a unique minimal field of definition where its…
Consider a reductive group G over a non-archimedean local field. The Galois group Gal(C/Q) acts naturally on the category of smooth complex G-representations. We prove that this action stabilizes the class of standard modules. This…
An $F$-zip over a scheme $S$ over a finite field is a certain object of semi-linear algebra consisting of a locally free module with a descending filtration and an ascending filtration and a $\Frob_q$-twisted isomorphism between the…
This is the first in a series of papers devoted to foundations of topological stacks. We begin developing a homotopy theory for topological stacks along the lines of classical homotopy theory of topological spaces. In this paper we go as…
Let Y be a normal projective variety and p a morphism from X to Y, which is a projective holomorphic symplectic resolution. Namikawa proved that the Kuranishi deformation spaces Def(X) and Def(Y) are both smooth, of the same dimension, and…
For a finite group $G$, let $\H_{g,G,\xi}$ be the stack of admissible $G$-covers $C\to D$ of stable curves with ramification data $\xi$, $g(C)=g$ and $g(D)=g'$. There are source and target morphisms $\phi\colon \H_{g,G,\xi}\to \M_{g,r}$ and…
For an algebraically closed field K, let G be a finite abelian group of K-linear automorphisms of a finite-dimensional path algebra KQ of a quiver Q. Under certain assumptions on the action of G, we show the existence of a certain kind of…
We compare tame actions in the category of schemes with torsors in the category of log schemes endowed with the log flat topology. We prove that actions underlying log flat torsors are tame. Conversely, starting from a tame cover of a…
We study deformation theory of mod $p$ Galois representations of $p$-adic fields with values in generalised tori, such as $L$-groups of (possibly non-split) tori. We show that the corresponding deformation rings are formally smooth over a…
In this paper, we investigate the possibility of constructing isomonodromic deformations of logarithmic connections on curves by using ramified covers. We give new examples and prove a classification result.
The outlines of a "Galois theory" for bimeromorphic geometry is here developed, via the study of model-theoretic definable binding groups in the theory CCM of compact complex spaces. As an application, a structure theorem about principal…
We apply the known results on the Galois module structure of the sheaf of polydifferentials in order to study the dimension of the tangent space of the deformation functor of curves with automorphisms. We are able to find the dimension for…
We extend the lifting methods of our previous paper to lift reducible odd representations $\bar{\rho}:\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{F}/F) \to G(k)$ of Galois groups of global fields $F$ valued in Chevalley groups $G(k)$. Lifting results, when…
This article extends the study of cyclic ramified covers of the projective line defined by Kummer equations. We consider the most general case of such covers, allowing arbitrary orders in the roots of the generating radicant. The primary…
We prove a Galois-type correspondence between compositions of purely inseparable field extensions (including infinite ones) and subalgebras of differential operators. This correspondence can be utilized to establish a connection between…
We study the circumstances under which one can reconstruct a stack from its associated functor of isomorphism classes. This is possible surprisingly often: we show that many of the standard examples of moduli stacks are determined by their…
We prove an essentially surjective Galois-correspondence-like functor for $n$-stacks. More specifically, it gives an essentially surjective functor from the $\infty$-category of $n$-stacks of finite sets with an action of the fundamental…
Let G be a finite group and V a finite-dimensional rational G-representation. We ask whether there exists a finite Galois extension L/K of number fields with Galois group G, an elliptic curve E/K, and a G-submodule of E(L) tensor Q…
