Consider an extension of finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras $0 \to \mathfrak{h} \to \tilde{\mathfrak{g}} \to \mathfrak{g} \to 0$ (over a field $k$ of characteristic zero) corresponding to an extension of unipotent algebraic groups $1…

Let $F$ be a CM number field. We generalize existing automorphy lifting theorems for regular residually irreducible $p$-adic Galois representations over $F$ by relaxing the big image assumption on the residual representation.

In this article, we study the outer automorphism group of a group G decomposed as a finite graph of group with finite edge groups and finitely generated vertex groups with at most one end. We show that Out(G) is essentially obtained by…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and let $C/k$ be a smooth connected affine curve. Denote by $\pi_1(C)$ its algebraic fundamental group. The goal of this paper is to characterize a certain subset of closed…

The main purpose of this paper is to describe some published results and outline corresponding approaches which when applied to automorphism groups of algebras or groups establish that these groups are linear or non-linear.

We study the automorphisms of modular curves associated to Cartan subgroups of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z)$ and certain subgroups of their normalizers. We prove that if $n$ is large enough, all the automorphisms are induced by the…

In this article we prove exactness of the homotopy sequence of overconvergent $p$-adic fundamental groups for a smooth and projective morphism in characteristic $p$. We do so by first proving a corresponding result for rigid analytic…

We study deformation theory of elliptic fibre bundles over curves in positive characteristics. As applications, we give examples of non-liftable elliptic surfaces in charactertic two and three, which answers a question of Katsura and Ueno.…

In this paper we study division algebras over the function fields of curves over $\Q_p$. The first and main tool is to view these fields as function fields over nonsingular $S$ which are projective of relative dimension 1 over the $p$ adic…

We first show that any connected algebraic group over a perfect field is the neutral component of the automorphism group scheme of some normal projective variety. Then we show that very few connected algebraic semigroups can be realized as…

We study Witt groups of smooth curves and surfaces over algebraically closed fields of characteristic not two. In both dimensions, we determine both the classical Witt group and Balmer's shifted Witt groups. In the case of curves, the…

We present norm criteria for the existence of anti-automorphisms, as well as explicit constructions of anti-automorphisms, both on cyclic and generalized cyclic algebras. Our approach describes anti-automorphisms as polynomial maps and…

Let $\X$ be an irreducible, smooth, projective curve of genus $g \geq 2$ defined over the complex field $\C.$ Then there is a covering $\pi: \X \longrightarrow \P^1,$ where $\P^1$ denotes the projective line. The problem of expressing…

Tropicalization is a procedure that takes subvarieties of an algebraic torus to balanced weighted rational complexes in space. In this paper, we study the tropicalizations of curves in surfaces in 3-space. These are balanced rational…

In this survey, we report on progress concerning families of projective curves with fixed number and fixed (topological or analytic) types of singularities. We are, in particular, interested in numerical, universal and asymptotically proper…
