We prove one direction of a recently posed conjecture by Gan-Gross-Prasad, which predicts the branching laws that govern restriction from p-adic $GL_n$ to $GL_{n-1}$ of irreducible smooth representations within the Arthur-type class. We…
The class of elementary totally disconnected groups is the smallest class of totally disconnected, locally compact, second countable groups which contains all discrete countable groups, all metrizable pro-finite groups, and is closed under…
We derive a relative version of the local monodromy theorem for ordinary differential equations on an annulus over a mixed-characteristic nonarchimedean field, and give several applications in $p$-adic cohomology and $p$-adic Hodge theory.…
We explore systems of polynomial equations where we seek complex solutions with absolute value 1. Geometrically, this amounts to understanding intersections of algebraic varieties with tori -- Cartesian powers of the unit circle. We study…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $F/F^+$ a CM extension of a totally real field such that every place of $F^+$ above $p$ is unramified and inert in $F$. We fix a finite place $v$ of $F^+$ above $p$, and let $\overline{r}:…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p$ and $\Gamma$ an infinite, first countable pro-$p$ group. We study the behavior of the $p$-primary part of the "motivic class group", i.e. the full $p$-divisible group of the Jacobian, in any…
Let $k$ be a complete nonarchimedean field and let $X$ be an affinoid closed disc over $k$. We classify the tamely ramified twisted forms of $X$. Generalizing work of P. Russell on inseparable forms of the affine line we construct explicit…
We show that certain twisting deformations of a family of supersolvable groups are simple as Hopf algebras. These groups are direct products of two generalized dihedral groups. Examples of this construction arise in dimensions 60 and…
We investigate sections of the arithmetic fundamental group pi_1(X) where X is either a smooth affinoid p-adic curve, or a formal germ of a p-adic curve, and prove that they can be lifted (unconditionally) to sections of cuspidally abelian…
We define some formal moduli space of quasi-isogenies of isoclinic $p$-divisible groups with a non-reductive group as the "structure group". We then formulate new Arithmetic Fundamental Lemma conjectures for Bessel subgroups in the context…
This is an expostion of various aspects of amenability and paradoxical decompositions for groups, group actions and metric spaces. First, we review the formalism of pseudogroups, which is well adapted to stating the alternative of Tarski,…
We establish a "matrix simultaneous diagonalization theorem" for disconnected reductive groups which relaxes both the semisimplicity condition and the commutativity condition. As an application, we prove the following basic results…
We determine the local deformation rings of sufficiently generic mod $l$ representations of the Galois group of a $p$-adic field, when $l \neq p$, relating them to the space of $q$-power-stable semisimple conjugacy classes in the dual…
We construct and study the moduli of continuous representations of a profinite group with integral $p$-adic coefficients. We present this moduli space over the moduli space of continuous pseudorepresentations and show that this morphism is…
In this article we prove a local Riemman-Hurwitz formula which compares the dimensions of the spaces of vanishing cycles in a finite Galois cover of type (p,p,...,p) between formal germs of p-adic curves and which generalises the formula…
Let ${\mathrm G}$ be the group $({\rm GL}_{2}\times {\rm GU}(1))/{\rm GL}_{1}$ over a totally real field $F$, and let $\mathscr{X}$ be a Hida family for ${\rm G}$. Revisiting a construction of Howard and Fouquet, we construct an explicit…
In this paper we generalize Cherednik's method and prove that certain Shimura varieties corresponding to groups of unitary similitudes and automorphic vector bundles over them have p-adic uniformization. This is proved for Shimura…
We construct the moduli stack of torsors over the formal punctured disk in characteristic p > 0 for a finite group isomorphic to the semidirect product of a p-group and a tame cyclic group. We prove that the stack is a limit of separated…
We construct p-adic families of Klingen Eisenstein series and L-functions for cuspforms (not necessarily ordinary) unramified at an odd prime p on definite unitary groups of signature (r, 0) (for any positive integer r) for a quadratic…
We prove the Batyrev-Manin conjecture for smooth equivariant compactifications of forms of $\mathbb{G}_a^n$ over a global function field $F$, assuming some conditions on the boundary divisor. To verify that the leading constant agrees with…
