For a character of the absolute Galois group of a complete discrete valuation field, we define a lifting of the refined Swan conductor, using higher dimensional class field theory.

We define a numerical invariant, the differential Swan conductor, for certain differential modules on a rigid analytic annulus over a p-adic field. This gives a definition of a conductor for p-adic Galois representations with finite local…

We use Kato's Swan conductor to study the Brauer $p$-dimension of fields of characteristic $p>0$. We mainly investigate two types of fields: henselian discretely valued fields and semi-global fields. While investigating the Brauer…

We use Kato's Swan conductor to systematically investigate the Brauer $p$-dimension of henselian discretely valued fields of residual characteristic $p>0$. We transform the period-index problem of these fields into the symbol length problem…

The refined Swan conductor is defined by K.\ Kato \cite{KK2}, and generalized by T.\ Saito \cite{wild}. In this part, we consider some smooth $l$-adic \'{e}tale sheaves of rank $p$ such that we can be define the $rsw$ following T.\ Saito,…

In this paper, we study the Brauer-Manin pairing of smooth proper varieties over local fields, and determine the $p$-adic part of the kernel of one side. We also compute the $A_0$ of a potentially rational surface which splits over a wildly…

We relate the Brauer group of a smooth variety over a p-adic field to the geometry of the special fibre of a regular model, using the purity theorem in \'etale cohomology. As an illustration, we describe how the Brauer group of a smooth del…

We study the evaluation maps given by elements of the Brauer group of varieties over local fields. We show constancy of the aforementioned maps in several interesting cases.

We show that the non-log version of Kato's ramification filtration on the Brauer group of a separated and finite type regular scheme over a positive characteristic local field coincides with the evaluation filtration. This extends a recent…

We consider a complete discrete valuation field of characteristic p, with possibly non perfect residue field. Let V be a rank one continuous representation with finite local monodromy of its absolute Galois group. We will prove that the…

We prove the equality of two non-logarithmic ramification filtrations defined by Matsuda and Abbes-Saito for the abelianized absolute Galois group of a complete discrete valuation field in positive characteristic. We also compute the…

Consider weak approximation for 0-cycles on a smooth proper variety defined over a number field, it is conjectured to be controlled by its Brauer group. Let $X$ be a Ch\^atelet surface or a smooth compactification of a homogeneous space of…

Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p>0. When p>2, Fontaine and Laffaille have classified p-divisibles groups and finite flat p-groups over the Witt vectors W(k) in terms of filtered modules. Still assuming p>2, we extend these…

Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ and $X$ a smooth proper $K$-variety with good reduction. Under a mild assumption on the behaviour of Hodge numbers under reduction modulo $p$, we prove that the existence of a non-zero global…
