Let $p \geq 2$ be a prime number and let $k$ be a number field. Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an abelian variety defined over $k$. We prove that if ${\rm Gal} ( k ( {\mathcal{A}}[p] ) / k )$ contains an element $g$ of order dividing $p-1$ not fixing…

We present several constraints on the absolute Galois groups G_F of fields F containing a primitive pth root of unity, using restrictions on the cohomology of index p normal subgroups from a previous paper by three of the authors. We first…

In this paper, we study non-planar degeneracies with cylindrical configurations. They could be constructed by the product $\mathbb{CP}^1 \times T$ of the projective plane and a complex torus with embedding $(m,n)$. We prove that their…

We construct Igusa stacks for the good reduction locus of a class of abelian-type Shimura varieties that can be defined in terms of a PEL datum, under the assumption that it is of type (A even) or (C) and unramified at a prime p.

In this paper we study the supersingular locus of the reduction modulo p of the Shimura variety for GU(1,s) in the case of an inert prime p. Using Dieudonn\'e theory we define a stratification of the corresponding moduli space of…

We study the conditions imposed by conjectures of Arthur and Kottwitz on the Galois representations occurring in the cohomology of Shimura varieties.

In this paper, we define and construct canonical filtered $F$-crystals with $G$-structure over the integral models for Shimura varieties of abelian type at hyperspecial level defined by Kisin. We check that these are related by $p$-adic…

For a very general product $A$ of seven or more elliptic curves, every rational curve on the Kummer variety of $A$ projects trivially onto the Kummer variety of at least one of its factors. As a consequence, a very general member of certain…

Let $\pi : Z \to X$ be Galois cover of smooth projective curves with Galois group $W$ a Weyl group of a simple Lie group $G$. For a dominant weight $\lambda$, we consider the intermediate curve $Y_\lambda= Z/\Stab(\lambda)$. One can realise…

Let K be a number field and A an abelian variety over K. We are interested in the following conjecture of Morita: if the Mumford-Tate group of A does not contain unipotent Q-rational points then A has potentially good reduction at any…

We study integral models of some Shimura varieties with bad reduction at a prime $p$, namely the Siegel modular variety and Shimura varieties associated with some unitary groups. We focus on the case where the level structure at $p$ is…

We define and investigate the tropical Prym varieties associated to unramified Galois cyclic covers of tropical curves (or equivalently metric graphs) $\tilde{\Gamma}\to \Gamma$. Our approach here is to study the tropical Prym varieties…

In this paper we prove that the Prym map, from the space of double coverings of a curve of genus g with r branch points to the moduli space of abelian varieties, is generically injective if r>6 and g>1, r=6 and g>2, r=4 and g>4, r=2 and…

A simple abelian variety $A$ defined over a number field $k$ is called of $\mathrm{GL}_n$-type if there exists a number field of degree $2\dim(A)/n$ which is a subalgebra of $\mathrm{End}^0(A)$. We say that $A$ is genuinely of…

We prove an hyperbolic analogue of the Bloch-Ochiai theorem about the Zariski closure of holomorphic curves in abelian varieties. We consider the case of non compact Shimura varieties completing the proof of the result for all Shimura…

In this article we classify quadruple Galois canonical covers of smooth surfaces of minimal degree. The classification shows that they are either non-simple cyclic covers or bi-double covers. If they are bi-double then they are all fiber…

We construct a three-parameter family of non-hyperelliptic and bielliptic plane genus-three curves whose associated Prym variety is two-isogenous to the Jacobian variety of a general hyperelliptic genus-two curve. Our construction is based…

We provide conditions on the p-adic Galois representation of a smooth proper variety over a complete nonarchimedean extension of Q_p to have (potentially) good ordinary reduction.

The Prym map of type (g,n,r) associates to every cyclic covering of degree n of a curve of genus g, ramified at a reduced divisor of degree r, the corresponding Prym variety. We show that the corresponding map of moduli spaces is…
