We consider continuous representations of the Galois group G of a number field K taking values in the completion C of an algebraic closure A of the field of l-adic numbers. We give a construction of irreducible representations of G in…
We prove that there exists an integer p_0 such that X_split(p)(Q) is made of cusps and CM-points for any prime p>p_0. Equivalently, for any non-CM elliptic curve E over Q and any prime p>p_0 the image of the Galois representation induced by…
In this paper, we consider mod $\ell$ Galois representations of $\mathbb{Q}$. In particular, we obtain an effective criterion to distinguish two semisimple 2-dimensional, odd mod $\ell$ Galois representations up to isomorphism. Serre's…
Let $q = p^e \geq 7$ be an odd prime power, and set $A := \mathbb{F}_q[T]$. In this article, we construct an infinite two-parameter family of Drinfeld $A$-modules of rank $3$ such that, for every non-zero prime ideal $\mathfrak{l}$ of $A$,…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field. For an order $\mathcal{O}$ in $K$ and a positive integer $N$, let $K_{\mathcal{O},\,N}$ be the ray class field of $\mathcal{O}$ modulo $N\mathcal{O}$. We deal with various subjects related to…
Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime number. We find all the possible subgroups $G$ of ${\rm GL}_2 ( \mathbb{Z} / p \mathbb{Z} )$ such that there exists a number field $k$ and an elliptic curve ${\mathcal{E}}$ defined over $k$ such that the ${\rm Gal}…
Let $K$ be a fixed number field, assumed to be Galois over $\mathbb Q$. Let $r$ and $f$ be fixed integers with $f$ positive. Given an elliptic curve $E$, defined over $K$, we consider the problem of counting the number of degree $f$ prime…
Let $K$ be a number field. For positive integers $m$ and $n$ such that $m\mid n$, we let $\mathscr{S}_{m,n}$ be the set of elliptic curves $E/K$ defined over $K$ such that $E(K)_{\operatorname{tors}}\supseteq \mathscr{T}\cong…
Let $X$ be a smooth, separated, geometrically connected scheme defined over a number field $K$ and $\{\rho_\lambda\}_\lambda$ a system of n-dimensional semisimple $\lambda$-adic representations of the \'etale fundamental group of $X$ such…
This is a book about computational aspects of modular forms and the Galois representations attached to them. The main result is the following: Galois representations over finite fields attached to modular forms of level one can, in almost…
We study $N$-congruences between quadratic twists of elliptic curves. If $N$ has exactly two distinct prime factors we show that these are parametrised by double covers of certain modular curves. In many, but not all cases, the modular…
In this work we compute the universal framed deformation functor for a reducible Galois representation $\rho$ given by direct sum of 2-dimensional representations $\rho_i$ coming from p-divisible groups. We impose the local conditions of…
We give a parametrization of the possible Serre invariants $(N,k,\nu)$ of modular mod $\ell$ Galois representations of the exceptional types $A_4$, $S_4$, $A_5$, in terms of local data attached to the fields cut out by the associated…
We define a pro-$p$ Abelian sheaf on a modular curve of a fixed level $N \geq 5$ divisible by a prime number $p \neq 2$. Every $p$-adic representation of $\text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q})$ associated to an eigenform is obtained…
This paper was motivated by a recent paper by Krumm and Pollack investigating modulo-$p$ behaviour of quadratic twists with rational points of a given hyperelliptic curve, conditional on the abc-conjecture. We extend those results to…
This article starts a computational study of congruences of modular forms and modular Galois representations modulo prime powers. Algorithms are described that compute the maximum integer modulo which two monic coprime integral polynomials…
Consider a rational point on an elliptic curve under an isogeny. Suppose that the action of Galois partitions the set of its pre-images into n orbits. It is shown that all such points above a certain height have their denominator divisible…
We are given a finite group $H$, an automorphism $\tau$ of $H$ of order $r$, a Galois extension $L/K$ of fields of characteristic zero with cyclic Galois group $\langle\sigma\rangle$ of order $r$, and an absolutely irreducible…
We sketch a method to compute mod $\ell$ Galois representations contained in the H2 \'etale of surfaces. We apply this method to the case of a representation with values in GL(3,9) attached to an eigenform over a congruence subgroup of…
Let $p\geq 5$ be a prime. We construct modular Galois representations for which the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-corank of the $p$-primary Selmer group (i.e., $\lambda$-invariant) over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension is large. More precisely, for…
