We consider questions in Galois cohomology which arise by considering mod $p$ Galois representations arising from automorphic forms. We consider a Galois cohomological analog for the standard heuristics about the distribution of Wieferich…
Under an assumption on the existence of p-adic Galois representations, we carry out Taylor--Wiles patching (in the derived category) for the completed homology of the locally symmetric spaces associated to GL(n) over a number field. We use…
In this paper, we use techniques of Conrey, Farmer and Wallace to find spaces of modular forms $S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ where all of the eigenspaces have Hecke eigenvalues defined over $\F_p$, and give a heuristic indicating that these are all…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $K$ a finite unramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ and $\mathbb{F}$ a finite extension of $\mathbb{F}_p$. Using perfectoid spaces we associate to any finite-dimensional continuous representation $\overline{\rho}$…
For every finite group $H$ and every finite $H$-module $A$, we determine the subgroup of negligible classes in $H^2(H,A)$, in the sense of Serre, over fields with enough roots of unity. As a consequence, we show that for every odd prime…
Let $g$ be a Hecke-Maass cusp form on the modular surface ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})\backslash\mathbb{H}$, namely an $L^2$-normalised nonconstant Laplacian eigenfunction on ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})\backslash\mathbb{H}$ that is additionally a…
We show that the $p$-group complex of a finite group $G$ is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres of dimension at most $n$ if $G$ contains a self-centralising normal subgroup $H$ which is isomorphic to a group of Lie type and Lie rank…
Let $F$ be a number field, let $N\geq 3$ be an integer, and let $k$ be a finite field of characteristic $\ell$. We show that if $\rb:G_F\longrightarrow GL_N(k)$ is a continuous representation with image of $\rb$ containing $SL_N(k)$ then,…
In the late 1990's, R. Coleman and R. Greenberg (independently) asked for a global property characterizing those $p$-ordinary cuspidal eigenforms whose associated Galois representation becomes decomposable upon restriction to a…
We use Galois cohomology methods to produce optimal mod $p^d$ level lowering congruences to a $p$-adic Galois representation that we construct as a well chosen lift of a given residual mod $p$ representation. Using our explicit Galois…
In his work on modularity theorems, Wiles proved a numerical criterion for a map of rings $R\to T$ to be an isomorphism of complete intersections. He used this to show that certain deformation rings and Hecke algebras associated to a mod…
We show that the completed Hecke algebra of $p$-adic modular forms is isomorphic to the completed Hecke algebra of continuous $p$-adic automorphic forms for the units of the quaternion algebra ramified at $p$ and $\infty$. This gives an…
In 1994, van Geemen and Top constructed a non-selfdual motive of rank three over $\mathbb{Q}$ conjecturally associated with a cuspidal non-selfdual automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_3(\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{Q}})$ of level…
This paper continues the study of certain two-dimensional Galois representations attached to modular forms (mod p) via a construction due to Deligne. In particular, we prove a criterion for determining when the representation is split when…
Given a prime $p$ and cusp forms $f_1$ and $f_2$ on some $\Gamma_1(N)$ that are eigenforms outside $Np$ and have coefficients in the ring of integers of some number field $K$, we consider the problem of deciding whether $f_1$ and $f_2$ have…
Let $G$ be a reductive group over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of residue characteristic $p$. We prove that the Hecke algebras of $G(F)$ with coefficients in a ${\mathbb Z}_{\ell}$-algebra $R$ for $\ell$ not equal to $p$ are finitely…
Let $F$ be a totally real number field and let $f$ be a classical cuspidal $p$-regular Hilbert modular eigenform over $F$ of parallel weight $1$. Let $x$ be the point on the $p$-adic Hilbert eigenvariety $\mathcal E$ corresponding to an…
In this paper we study couples of finite separable extensions of the function field $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ which are arithmetically equivalent, i.e. such that prime ideals of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ decompose with the same inertia degrees in the two…
For every prime number $p\geq 3$ and every integer $m\geq 1$, we prove the existence of a continuous Galois representation $\rho: G_\mathbb{Q} \rightarrow Gl_m(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ which has open image and is unramified outside $\{p,\infty\}$…
Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime. Let $k = b + c(p-1)$ be an integer in $[2p+2, p^2 - p +3]$, where $b \in [2,p]$ and $c \in [2, p-1]$. We prove local constancy in the weight space of the mod $p$ reduction of certain two-dimensional crystalline…
