We prove a general inequality for estimating the number of points of arbitrary complete intersections over a finite field. This extends a result of Deligne for nonsingular complete intersections. For normal complete intersections, this…
In this paper, we prove the existence of certain lifts of Hilbert cusp forms to general odd spin groups. We then use those lifts to provide evidence for a conjecture of Gross on the modularity of abelian varieties not of ${\rm GL}_2$-type.
Base on a conjecture, we prove that for any smooth separated stack of finite type over a number field, its descent obstruction equals its iterated descent obstruction. As a consequence, we show that for any algebraic stack over a number…
A well-known conjecture, often attributed to Serre, asserts that any motive over any number field has infinitely many ordinary reductions (in the sense that the Newton polygon coincides with the Hodge polygon). In the case of Hilbert…
For a fixed mod $p$ automorphic Galois representation, $p$-adic automorphic Galois representations lifting it determine points in universal deformation space. In the case of modular forms and under some technical conditions, B\"{o}ckle…
In 1987 Serre conjectured that any mod l ("ell", not "1") two-dimensional irreducible odd representation of the absolute Galois group of the rationals came from a modular form in a precise way. We present a generalisation of this conjecture…
We show that an infinite family of odd complex 2-dimensional Galois representations ramified at 5 having nonsolvable projective image are modular, thereby verifying Artin's conjecture for a new case of examples. Such a family contains the…
A central conjecture in inverse Galois theory, proposed by D\`{e}bes and Deschamps, asserts that every finite split embedding problem over an arbitrary field can be regularly solved. We give an unconditional proof of a consequence of this…
Let $S$ be a Shimura variety with reflex field $E$. We prove that the action of $\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/E)$ on $S$ maps special points to special points and special subvarieties to special subvarieties. Furthermore, the…
We show that if the automorphism group of a projective variety is torsion, then it is finite. Motivated by Lang's conjecture on rational points of hyperbolic varieties, we use this to prove that a projective variety with only finitely many…
In his previous paper (Math. Res. Letters 7(2000), 123--132) the author proved that in characteristic zero the jacobian $J(C)$ of a hyperelliptic curve $C: y^2=f(x)$ has only trivial endomorphisms over an algebraic closure of the ground…
This paper deals with the Weak Inverse Galois Problem which, for a given field $k$, states that, for every finite group $G$, there exists a finite separable extension $L/k$ such that ${\rm{Aut}}(L/k)=G$. One of its goals is to explain how…
We prove a companion forms theorem for mod l Hilbert modular forms. This work generalises results of Gross and Coleman--Voloch for modular forms over Q, and gives a new proof of their results in many cases. The methods used are completely…
We prove the Sato-Tate conjecture for Hilbert modular forms. More precisely, we prove the natural generalisation of the Sato-Tate conjecture for regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations of $\GL_2(\A_F)$, $F$ a totally real…
Let $F$ be a totally real field and let $S$ denote the geometric special fiber of a Hilbert modular variety associated to $F$, at a prime unramified in $F$. We show that the order of vanishing of the Hasse invariant on $S$ is equal to the…
For a quasi-projective smooth geometrically integral variety over a number field $k$, we prove that the iterated descent obstruction is equivalent to the descent obstruction. This generalizes a result of Skorobogatov, and this answers an…
Let $p$ be a prime. Tate and Voloch proved that a point of finite order in the algebraic torus cannot be $p$-adically too close to a fixed subvariety without lying on it. The current work is motivated by the analogy between torsion points…
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…
We study the action of the Galois group $G$ of a finite extension $K/k$ of number fields on the points on an elliptic curve $E$. For an odd prime $p$, we aim to determine the structure of the $p$-adic completion of the Mordell-Weil group…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over the rationals that does not have complex multiplication. For each prime $\ell$, the action of the absolute Galois group on the $\ell$-torsion points of $E$ can be given in terms of a Galois representation…
