As a sequel to our proof of the analog of Serre's conjecture for function fields in Part I of this work, we study in this paper the deformation rings of $n$-dimensional mod $\ell$ representations $\rho$ of the arithmetic fundamental group…
Gouv\^ea-Mazur [GM] made a conjecture on the local constancy of slopes of modular forms when the weight varies $p$-adically. Since one may decompose the space of modular forms according to associated residual Galois representations, the…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over a finite field $F_q$. Let $\rho$ be a continuous representation $\pi(X)\to GL_n(F)$, where $F=F_l((t))$ with $F_l$ being another finite field of order prime to $q$. Assume that…
The quantum modularity conjecture, first introduced by Don Zagier, is a general statement about a relation between $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ quantum invariants of links and 3-manifolds at roots of unity related by a modular transformation. In this…
Let $k > 3$ be an integer and $p$ a prime with $p > 2k-2$. Let $f$ be a newform of weight $2k-2$ and level 1 so that $f$ is ordinary at $p$ and $\bar{\rho}_{f}$ is irreducible. Under some additional hypotheses we prove that…
In this paper we give a new proof of the Quantum Unique Ergodicity conjecture for holomorphic integral weight modular forms on the upper half plane. The proof requires only partial results towards the Ramanujan conjecture and the shifted…
Let $F$ be a totally real field in which $p$ is unramified and $B$ be a quaternion algebra which splits at at most one infinite place. Let $\overline{r}:\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{F}/F)\to \mathrm{GL}_2(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p)$ be a modular…
We prove some cases of the Fontaine-Mazur conjecture for even Galois representations. In particular, we prove, under mild hypotheses, that there are no irreducible two-dimensional ordinary even Galois representations of $\Gal(\Qbar/\Q)$…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number and $k$ an imaginary quadratic field in which $p$ splits. In this paper, we consider a weak form of Greenberg's generalized conjecture for $p$ and $k$, which states that the non-trivial Iwasawa module of the…
Fundamental conjectures in modular representation theory of finite groups, more precisely, Alperin's Weight Conjecture and Robinson's Ordinary Weight Conjecture, can be expressed in terms of fusion systems. We use fusion systems to connect…
Let H(G) be the Hecke algebra of a reductive p-adic group G. We formulate a conjecture for the ideals in the Bernstein decomposition of H(G). The conjecture says that each ideal is geometrically equivalent to an algebraic variety. Our…
We give an explicit formulation of the weight part of Serre's conjecture for GL_2 using Kummer theory. This avoids any reference to p-adic Hodge theory. The key inputs are a description of the reduction modulo p of crystalline extensions in…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a global function field $F$, and let $p$ be a prime distinct from the characteristic of $F$. Let $F_\infty$ be a $p$-adic Lie extension of $F$ that contains the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension…
In this paper we prove a theorem about the coefficients in a block of a half integral weight modular form. We show that the result of Serre and Stark for weight 1/2 forms does not generalize to higher higher weights. Let f be a half…
Since the work of F. Rankin and Swinnerton-Dyer on the zeros of Eisenstein series, many results have been obtained concerning the zeros of modular forms. In this paper, we study the zeros of Serre derivatives of modular forms. In…
We call a monoidal category ${\mathcal C}$ a Serre category if for any $C$, $D \in {\mathcal C}$ such that $C\ot D$ is semisimple, $C$ and $D$ are semisimple objects in ${\mathcal C}$. Let $H$ be an involutory Hopf algebra, $M$, $N$ two…
For a weight two modular form and a good prime $p$, we construct a vector of Iwasawa functions $(L_p^\sharp,L_p^\flat)$. In the elliptic curve case, we use this vector to put the $p$-adic analogues of the conjectures of Birch and…
Let k be a field, let G be an affine algebraic k-group and V a finite-dimensional G-module. We say V is rigid if the socle series and radical series coincide for the action of G on each indecomposable summand of V; say V is geometrically…
Notable results on the special values of $L$-functions of Siegel modular forms were obtained by J. Sturm in the case when the degree $n$ is even and the weight $k$ is an integer. In this paper we extend this method to half-integer weights…
Consider a standard representation $\pi_{st}$ of a quasi-split reductive p-adic group G. The generalized injectivity conjecture, posed by Casselman and Shahidi, asserts that any generic irreducible subquotient $\pi$ of $\pi_{st}$ is…
