Let $G$ be a finite classical group of Lie type of rank $\ell$, defined over a field of characteristic $p>2$. In this work, we classify the irreducible representations of $G$ whose dimensions are bounded by a constant proportional to…

Let $F/F_0$ be a quadratic extension of non-Archimedean locally compact fields with residual characteristic $p\neq2$, and $\ell$ be a prime number different from $p$. We classify those $\ell$-modular cuspidal irreducible representations of…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and $X/K$ a smooth projective variety. Fix $q\in\mathbb{N}$. For every prime number $\ell$ let $\rho_\ell$ be the representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(K)$ on the \'etale…

Let G be a simple, simply-connected algebraic group over the complex numbers with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. The main result of this article is a proof that each irreducible representation of the fundamental group of the orbit O through a…

We prove new automorphy lifting theorems for residually reducible Galois representations of unitary type in which the residual representation is permitted to have an arbitrary number of irreducible constituents.

It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of a number field $K$ is determined (up to isomorphism) by the characteristic polynomials of…

We study irreducibility of Galois representations $\rho_{\pi,\lambda}$ associated to a $n=7$ or 8-dimensional regular algebraic essentially self-dual cuspidal automorphic representation $\pi$ of $\text{GL}_n(\mathbb{A}_\mathbb{Q})$. We show…

Ribet's method provides a strategy for constructing a nontrivial extension of a $p$-adic Galois representation $\rho_1$ by another such representation $\rho_2$. Suppose we are working over a local ring. An important assumption that occurs…

Let $K/F$ be a finite Galois extension of number fields. It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible, finitely ramified $p$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of $K$ is determined…

Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type and $\ell$ be a prime which is not equal to the defining characteristic of $G$. In this note we discuss some open problems concerning the $\ell$-modular irreducible representations of $G$. We also…

This is an exposition of our joint work with Kakde, Silliman, and Wang, in which we prove a version of Ribet's Lemma for $\mathrm{GL}_2$ in the residually indistinguishable case. We suppose we are given a Galois representation taking values…

We show that the results of [BM97, DeB02b, Oka, Lus85, AA07, Tay16] imply a positive answer to the question of Moeglin-Waldspurger on wave-front sets in the case of depth zero cuspidal representations. Namely, we deduce that for large…

Irreducible representations are the building blocks of general, semisimple Galois representations \rho, and cuspidal representations are the building blocks of automorphic forms \pi of the general linear group. It is expected that when an…

We prove the following uniformity principle: if one of the Galois representations in the family attached to a genus two Siegel cusp form of weight $k>3$, "semistable" and with multiplicity one, is reducible (for an odd prime $p$),then all…

In previous work, the second author introduced a topology, for spaces of irreducible representations, that reduces to the classical Zariski topology over commutative rings but provides a proper refinement in various noncommutative settings.…

Given a reducible Galois representation $\overline{\rho}: G_{\mathbb{Q}} \rightarrow GL_2( \mathbb{F}_q)$ we show there exists an irreducible deformation $\rho : G_{\mathbb{Q}} \rightarrow GL_2 (\mathbb{W} [[T_1, T_2,.., T_r,....,]])$ of…

If $\bar\rho$ is an automorphic modulo $p$ Galois representation, it is natural to wonder if automorphic points are Zariski dense in the deformation space of $\bar\rho$. We prove new results in this direction in the case of a unitary group…

We are given a finite group $H$, an automorphism $\tau$ of $H$ of order $r$, a Galois extension $L/K$ of fields of characteristic zero with cyclic Galois group $\langle\sigma\rangle$ of order $r$, and an absolutely irreducible…

We show that finite quasisimple groups of Lie type in characteristic $p$ with an irreducible representation of prime degree $r$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ have orders bounded above by a function of $r$, independent of $p$. We…

We study the irreducibility of 6-dimensional strictly compatible systems of Q with distinct Hodge-Tate weights. We prove that if one of the representations $\rho$ in such a system is irreducible and satisfies a self-dual condition…
