This article extends our study of the geometry of the $p$-adic eigencurve at a point defined by a weight $1$ cuspform $f$ irregular at $p$ and having complex multiplication, and the implications in Iwasawa and in Hida theories. The novel…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $F$ a totally real number field. For each prime $\mathfrak{p}$ of $F$ above $p$ we construct a Hecke operator $T_\mathfrak{p}$ acting on $(\mathrm{mod}\, p^m)$ Katz Hilbert modular classes which agrees with the…
Let $K$ be a complete discrete valuation field whose residue field is perfect and of positive characteristic, let $X$ be a connected, proper scheme over $\mathcal{O}_K$, and let $U$ be the complement in $X$ of a divisor with simple normal…
Given a generically \'etale morphism $f\colon Y\to X$ of quasi-smooth Berkovich curves, we define a different function $\delta_f\colon Y\to[0,1]$ that measures the wildness of the topological ramification locus of $f$. This provides a new…
Let $R$ be a semilocal Dedekind domain with fraction field $F$. We show that two hereditary $R$-orders in central simple $F$-algebras which become isomorphic after tensoring with $F$ and with some faithfully flat \'etale $R$-algebra are…
We study deformations of rational curves and their singularities in positive characteristic. We use this to prove that if a smooth and proper surface in positive characteristic $p$ is dominated by a family of rational curves such that one…
Let $f:C\rightarrow D$ be a nonconstant separable morphism between irreducible smooth projective curves defined over an algebraically closed field. We say that $f$ is genuinely ramified if ${\mathcal O}_D$ is the maximal semistable…
We study the properties of the fundamental group of an affine curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, from the point of view of embedding problems. In characteristic zero, the fundamental group is free, but in…
We prove that for an indecomposable convergent or overconvergent F-isocrystal on a smooth irreducible variety over a perfect field of characteristic p, the gap between consecutive slopes at the generic point cannot exceed 1. (This may be…
We study the geometry and topology of Hilbert schemes of points on the orbifold surface [C^2/G], respectively the singular quotient surface C^2/G, where G is a finite subgroup of SL(2,C) of type A or D. We give a decomposition of the…
Let $ p $ be a prime lager than 3. Let $k$ be a number field, which does not contain the subfield of $\mathbb{Q} (\zeta_{p^2})$ of degree $p$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. Suppose that $\mathcal{E}$ is an elliptic curve defined over $k$. We prove that…
We provide results on the smoothness of normalisers in connected reductive algebraic groups $G$ over fields $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. Specifically we we give bounds on $p$ which guarantee that normalisers of subalgebras of…
We study the geometry of germs of definable (semialgebraic or subanalytic) sets over a $p$-adic field from the metric, differential and measure geometric point of view. We prove that the local density of such sets at each of their points…
In this paper, we consider normalized newforms $f\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N),\varepsilon_f)$ whose non-constant term Fourier coefficients are congruent to those of an Eisenstein series modulo some prime ideal above a rational prime $p$. In this…
We prove a simultaneous generalization of the classical Riemann-Hurwitz and Plucker formulas, addressing the total inflection of a morphism from a (smooth, projective) curve to an arbitrary (smooth, projective) higher-dimensional variety.…
The present paper provides several results on automorphisms of hyperk\"ahler (or irreducible holomorphic symplectic) manifolds. In particular it focuses on the symplectic case and contains a classification of prime order symplectic…
We describe the image of general families of two-dimensional representations over compact semi-local rings. Applying this description to the family carried by the universal Hecke algebra acting on the space of modular forms of level $N$…
We prove a semisimplicity result for the boundary, in the corresponding Deligne-Mumford compactification, of a totally geodesic subvariety of a moduli space of Riemann surfaces. At the level of Teichm\"uller space, this semisimplicity…
We prove that the Hodge-de Rham spectral sequence for smooth proper tame Artin stacks in characteristic p (as defined by Abramovich, Olsson, and Vistoli) which lift mod p^2 degenerates. We push the result to the coarse spaces of such…
Local models are schemes defined in linear algebra terms that describe the 'etale local structure of integral models for Shimura varieties and other moduli spaces. We point out that the flatness conjecture of Rapoport-Zink on local models…
