In a recent paper, Gabriel Navarro and Pham Huu Tiep show that the so-called Alperin Weight Conjecture can be verified via the Classification of the Finite Simple Groups, provided any simple group fulfills a very precise list of conditions.…

We prove some cases of the Fontaine-Mazur conjecture for even Galois representations. In particular, we prove, under mild hypotheses, that there are no irreducible two-dimensional ordinary even Galois representations of $\Gal(\Qbar/\Q)$…

We propose the use of de Rham cohomology of special fibers of Shimura varieties to formulate a geometric version of the weight part of Serre's conjecture. We conjecture that this formulation is equivalent to the one using Serre weights and…

We consider lifting of mod p representations to mod p^2 representations in the setting of representations of (i) finite groups; (ii) absolute Galois groups of abstract fields; and (iii) absolute Galois groups of local and global fields.

These are the lecture notes from a five-hour mini-course given at the Winter School on Galois Theory held at the University of Luxembourg in February 2012. Their aim is to give an overview of Serre's modularity conjecture and of its proof…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ such that $\mathrm{End}_{\bar{\mathbb{Q}}}(E)=\mathbb{Z}$ and which admits a non-trivial cyclic $\mathbb{Q}$-isogeny. We prove that, for $p>37$, the residual mod $p$ Galois representation…

If a $p$-adic Galois representation $\rho_{f,\nu}:\Gamma_{\mathbb Q} \to \GL_2(E_{f,\nu})$ attached to some eigenform $f$ is residually reducible it will have 2 non-isomorphic reductions, which have the same semi-simplification. In this…

We present methods to compute Selmer groups associated to mod p Galois representations rho over a number field K, with a particular focus on comparing their ranks with periods coming from cohomology classes associated to rho by Serre's…

We study the Mathieu Conjecture for $SU(2)$ using the matrix elements of its unitary irreducible representations. We state a conjecture for the particular case $SU(2)$ implying the Mathieu Conjecture for $SU(2)$.

We study irreducible odd mod $p$ Galois representations $\bar{\rho} \colon \mathrm{Gal}(\overline{F}/F) \to G(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p)$, for $F$ a totally real number field and $G$ a general reductive group. For $p \gg_{G, F} 0$, we show…

We prove the blockwise Navarro Alperin weight conjecture for double covers of symmetric and alternating groups.

We discuss a class of binary cyclic codes and their dual codes. The minimum distance is determined using algebraic geometry, and an application of Weil's theorem. We relate the weights appearing in the dual codes to the number of rational…

For a few quadratic fields, the non-existence is proved of continuous irreducible mod 2 Galois representations of degree 2 unramified outside 2.

We show that if two continuous semi-simple \(\ell \)-adic Galois representations are locally potentially equivalent at a sufficiently large set of places then they are globaly potentially equivalent. We also prove an analogous result for…

We prove the Breuil-Mezard conjecture for split non-scalar residual representations of Gal(Qp/Qp) by local methods. Combined with the cases previously proved in [18] and [24], this completes the proof of the conjecture (when p>3). As a…

We prove a two weight theorem for fractional singular integrals in higher dimensions assuming energy side conditions on the weights. The testing conditions are taken over quasicubes, namely globally biLipschitz images of cubes.

Using the local bijectivity of Keller maps, we give a proof of two-dimensional Jacobian conjecture.

In this article, we study deformations of conjugate self-dual Galois representations. The study has two folds. First, we prove an R=T type theorem for a conjugate self-dual Galois representation with coefficients in a finite field,…

We prove that function fields of varieties of dimension at least two over an algebraic closure of a finite field are determined, modulo purely inseparable extensions, by the quotient by the second term in the lower central series of their…

Let $K/\mathbf{Q}_p$ be an unramified extension of degree $f$ with residue field $k$. Let $\sigma$ be an irreducible representation of $\mathrm{GL}_n(k)$ over $\overline{\mathbf{F}}_p$. For $n\ge 3$, we prove that the universal…
