We prove a level raising mod $\ell=2$ theorem for elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$. It generalizes theorems of Ribet and Diamond-Taylor and also explains different sign phenomena compared to odd $\ell$. We use it to study the 2-Selmer…

We introduce the adjoint homological Selmer module for an SL$_2$-representation of a knot group, which may be seen as a knot theoretic analogue of the dual adjoint Selmer module for a Galois representation. We then show finitely generated…

We prove modularity for any irreducible crystalline $\ell$-adic odd 2-dimensional Galois representation (with finite ramification set) unramified at 3 verifying an "ordinarity at 3" easy to check condition, with Hodge-Tate weights $\{0, w…

We show that a weakly holomorphic modular function can be written as a sum of modular units of higher level. We further find a necessary and sufficient condition for a Siegel modular function of degree $g$ to have neither zero nor pole on…

We define deformation rings for potentially semi-stable deformations of fixed discrete series inertial type in dimension $2$. In the case of representations of the Galois group of $\mathbf{Q}_p$, we prove an analogue of the Breuil-M\'ezard…

We prove that the coherent cohomological dimension of the Siegel modular variety $A_{g,\Gamma}$ is at most $g(g+1)/2-2$ for $g\geq 2$. As a corollary, we show that the boundary of the compactified Siegel modular variety satisfies the…

The structure of nilpotent symplectic algebras of maximal class has been studied in [8, 5]. In this paper, we study the dual subclass of algebras of minimal class. In particular, we show that symplectic alternating algebras of dimension up…

Updated version of 2013 Arizona WInter School notes on modularity lifting theorems for for two-dimensional p-adic representations, using wherever possible arguments that go over to the n-dimensional (self-dual) case.

Let $X$ be a smooth curve over a finitely generated field $k$, and let $\ell$ be a prime different from the characteristic of $k$. We analyze the dynamics of the Galois action on the deformation rings of mod $\ell$ representations of the…

In this paper we study the universal lifting spaces of local Galois representations valued in arbitrary reductive group schemes when $\ell \neq p$. In particular, under certain technical conditions applicable to any root datum we construct…

Let $G$ be a Lie group with a biinvariant metric, not necessarily positive definite. It is shown that a certain construction carried out in an earlier paper for the fundamental group of a closed surface may be extended to an arbitrary…

We prove the existence of a potentially diagonalizable lift of a given automorphic mod $p$ Galois representation $\overline{\rho}:{\rm Gal}(\overline{F}/F)\longrightarrow {\rm GSp}_4(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p)$ for any totally real field $F$…

Let A be a basic connected finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field, let G be a group, let T be a basic tilting A-module and let B the endomorphism algebra of T. Under a hypothesis on T, we establish a correspondence…

Suppose $\rho_1, \rho_2$ are two $\ell$-adic Galois representations of the absolute Galois group of a number field, such that the algebraic monodromy group of one of the representations is connected and the representations are locally…

In this paper we formulate a conjecture about the minimal dimensional representations of the finite $W$-superalgebra $U(\mathfrak{g}_\bbc,e)$ over the field of complex numbers and demonstrate it with examples including all the cases of type…

The congruence subgroup property is established for the modular representations associated to any modular tensor category. This result is used to prove that the kernel of the representation of the modular group on the conformal blocks of…

We provide new local characterizations of Hida families of Siegel modular forms with genus two arising from automorphic inductions (stable Yoshida lifts), analogous to the characterizations of Hida families of CM modular forms provided by…

Let T be a free Z_p-module of finite rank equipped with a continuous Z_p-linear action of the absolute Galois group of a number field K satisfying certain conditions. In this article, by using a Selmer group corresponding to T, we give a…

In this note we improve on the results of our earlier paper[BLGG12], proving a near-optimal theorem on the existence of ordinary lifts of a mod l Hilbert modular form for any odd prime l.

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…
