A well-known theorem of Fillmore says that if $A\in\operatorname{M}_{n}(K)$ is a non-scalar matrix over a field $K$ and $\gamma_{1},\dots,\gamma_{n}\in K$ are such that $\gamma_{1}+\dots+\gamma_{n}=\operatorname{Tr}(A)$, then $A$ is…

Let p>2 be prime. We complete the proof of the weight part of Serre's conjecture for rank two unitary groups for mod p representations in the totally ramified case, by proving that any weight which occurs is a predicted weight. Our methods…

We study stable reduction of curves in the case where a tamely ramified base extension is sufficient. If X is a smooth curve defined over the fraction field of a strictly henselian discrete valuation ring, there is a criterion, due to T.…
