We realize Frobenius conjugacy classes in Galois groups of certain $q$-polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ using specific degree 1 ideals. We combine this with methods from elementary linear algebra and group theory to realize transvections…

We present a method to determine Frobenius elements in arbitrary Galois extensions of global fields, which may be seen as a generalisation of Euler's criterion. It is a part of the general question how to compare splitting fields and…

A lot of work has gone into computing images of Galois representations coming from elliptic curves. This article presents an algorithm to determine the image of the mod-$3$ Galois representation associated to a principally polarized abelian…

We compute the image of any choice of complex conjugation on the Galois representations associated to regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations and to torsion classes in the cohomology of locally symmetric spaces for $GL_n$…

In this note we relate the property of a semisimple l-adic Galois representation being "F-split" for a number field F to its having abelian image. By F-split we mean that the characteristic polynomials of Frobenii all split in F.

Consider the jacobian of a hyperelliptic genus two curve defined over a finite field. Under certain restrictions on the endomorphism ring of the jacobian we give an explicit description all non-degenerate, bilinear, anti-symmetric and…

Let E be an elliptic curve without complex multiplication (CM) over a number field K, and let G_E(ell) be the image of the Galois representation induced by the action of the absolute Galois group of K on the ell-torsion subgroup of E. We…

Let $n \geq 2$ and $p$ be a prime. Let $K$ be a number field and consider two Galois representations $\rho_1, \rho_2 : \operatorname{Gal}(\overline{K} / K) \to \operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ having residual image a $p$-group. We explain…

We study the Galois groups of polynomials arising from a compatible family of representations with big orthogonal monodromy. We show that the Galois groups are usually as large as possible given the constraints imposed on them by a…

The l-adic parabolic cohomology groups attached to noncongruence subgroups of SL_2(Z) are finite-dimensional representations of Gal(Qbar/F) for some number field F. We exhibit examples (with F=Q) giving rise to Galois representations whose…

We consider continuous representations of the Galois group G of a number field K taking values in the completion C of an algebraic closure A of the field of l-adic numbers. We give a construction of irreducible representations of G in…

Consider a non-CM elliptic curve $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. For each prime $\ell$, there is a representation $\rho_{E,\ell}: G \to GL_2(\mathbb{F}_\ell)$ that describes the Galois action on the $\ell$-torsion points of $E$, where $G$ is…

Let $p$ be a prime number, and let $Dist(SL_2)$ be the algebra of distributions, supported at $1$, on the algebraic group $SL_2$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$. The Frobenius map $Fr:SL_2\to SL_2$ induces a map $Fr:Dist(SL_2)\to Dist(SL_2)$ which is…

For $J$ an abelian surface, the Galois representation $\varrho_{J, \ell} : {\rm Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q}) \rightarrow {\rm Aut}(J[\ell]) \simeq {\rm GSp}_4(\mathbb{F}_\ell)$ is typically surjective, with smaller images…

The global Langlands conjecture for $\text{GL}_n$ over a number field $F$ predicts a correspondence between certain algebraic automorphic representations $\pi$ of $\text{GL}_n(\mathbb{A}_F)$ and certain families $\{ \rho_{\pi,\ell} \}_\ell$…

In this article we consider mod p modular Galois representations which are unramified at p such that the Frobenius element at p acts through a scalar matrix. The principal result states that the multiplicity of any such representation is…

We sketch a method to compute mod $\ell$ Galois representations contained in the H2 \'etale of surfaces. We apply this method to the case of a representation with values in GL(3,9) attached to an eigenform over a congruence subgroup of…

For each of the groups PSL2(F25), PSL2(F32), PSL2(F49), PGL2(F25), and PGL2(F27), we display the first explicitly known polynomials over Q having that group as Galois group. Each polynomial is related to a Galois representation associated…

This article computes the Galois groups of congruence covers arising in the context of certain hyperbolic triangle groups. As a consequence of this computation, the genera of the respective curves are deduced.
