It is known that if $p>37$ is a prime number and $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve without complex multiplication, then the image of the mod $p$ Galois representation $$…
We develop tools to study Picard groups of quotients of ring spectra by a finitely generated ideal, which we use to show that $\mathrm{Pic}(\mathrm{E}_n/I) = \mathbb{Z}/2$, where $\mathrm{E}_n$ is a Lubin--Tate theory and $I$ is an ideal…
Let $p, q$ be distinct primes, with $p > 2$. In a previous paper we classified the Hopf-Galois structures on Galois extensions of degree $p^{2} q$, when the Sylow $p$-subgroups of the Galois group are cyclic. This is equivalent to…
Let k be a global field, p an odd prime number different from char(k) and S, T disjoint, finite sets of primes of k. Let G_S^T(k)(p)=Gal(k_S^T(p)|k) be the Galois group of the maximal p-extension of k which is unramified outside S and…
Let p be a prime number and M a quadratic number field, M not equal to Q(\sqrt{p}) if p is congruent to 1 modulo 4. We will prove that for any positive integer d there exists a Galois extension F/Q with Galois group D_{2p} and an elliptic…
Let p be an odd prime. The lattice of all normal subgroups and the terms of the lower and upper central series are determined for all metabelian p-groups with generator rank d=2 having abelianization of type (p,p) and minimal defect of…
In this article, we study the minimal degree [K(T):K] of a p-subgroup T <= E(\overline{K})_tors for an elliptic curve E/K defined over a number field K. Our results depend on the shape of the image of the p-adic Galois representation…
Let $p$ be an odd prime and $L/K$ a $p$-adic Lie extension whose Galois group is of the form $\mathbb{Z}_p^{d-1}\rtimes \mathbb{Z}_p$. Under certain assumptions on the ramification of $p$ and the structure of an Iwasawa module associated to…
We combine the theory of Cartan-Tanaka prolongations with the Molien-Weyl integral formula and Hilbert-Poincar\'e series to compute the Spencer cohomology groups of the $D=11$ Poincar\'e superalgebra $\mathfrak p$, relevant for superspace…
We prove a local-global principle for the embedding problems of global fields with restricted ramification. By this local-global principle, for a global field $k$, we use only the local information to give a presentation of the maximal…
Andr\'e used Hodge-theoretic methods to show that in a smooth proper family X to B of varieties over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0, there exists a closed fiber having the same Picard number as the geometric generic…
In the mid 1980's, Pete Bousfield and I constructed certain p--local `telescopic' functors Phi_n from spaces to spectra, for each prime p and each positive integer n. These have striking properties that relate the chromatic approach to…
We define and study the 2-category of torsors over a Picard groupoid, a central extension of a group by a Picard groupoid, and commutator maps in this central extension. Using it in the context of two-dimensional local fields and…
We prove several results concerning the existence of potentially crystalline lifts with prescribed Hodge-Tate weights and inertial types of a given n-dimensional mod p representation of the absolute Galois group of K, where K/Q_p is a…
We prove that if $f:X \rightarrow A$ is a morphism from a smooth projective variety $X$ to an abelian variety $A$ over a number field $K$, and $G$ is a subgroup of automorphisms of $X$ satisfying certain properties, and if a prime $p$…
Given an imaginary quadratic extension $K$ of $\mathbb Q$, we give a classification of the maximal nonelementary subgroups of the Picard modular group $\operatorname{PSU}_{1,2}(\mathcal O_K)$ preserving a complex geodesic in the complex…

Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field k and F a finite Galois extension of k. Let p be a prime number. Then under certain not-too-stringent conditions on A and F we investigate the explicit Galois structure of the…
It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of a number field $K$ is determined (up to isomorphism) by the characteristic polynomials of…
We study irreducible mod p representations, valued in general reductive groups, of the Galois group of a number field. When the number field is totally real, we show that odd representations satisfying local ramification hypotheses and a…
