The ghost conjecture, formulated by this article's authors, predicts the list of p-adic valuations of the non-zero p-th eigenvalues ("slopes") for overconvergent p-adic modular eigenforms in terms of the Newton polygon of an…

Under a stronger genericity condition, we prove the local analogue of ghost conjecture of Bergdall and Pollack. As applications, we deduce in this case (a) a folklore conjecture of Breuil--Buzzard--Emerton on the crystalline slopes of…

We formulate a conjecture on slopes of overconvergent p-adic cuspforms of any p-adic weight in the Gamma_0(N)-regular case. This conjecture unifies a conjecture of Buzzard on classical slopes and more recent conjectures on slopes "at the…

The ghost conjecture is first provided by Bergdall and Pollack in [BP-1,BP-2] to study the Up-slopes of spaces of modular forms, which, so far, has already brought plenty of important results. The local version of this conjecture under…

We formulate a conjecture on slopes of overconvergent p-adic cuspforms of any p-adic weight in the Gamma_0(N)-regular case. This conjecture unifies a conjecture of Buzzard on classical slopes and more recent conjectures on slopes "at the…

In a previous article, we constructed an entire power series over $p$-adic weight space (the 'ghost series') and conjectured, in the $\Gamma_0(N)$-regular case, that this series encodes the slopes of overconvergent modular forms of any…

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…

Gouvea and Mazur made a precise conjecture about slopes of modular forms. Weaker versions of this conjecture were established by Coleman and Wan. In this note, we exhibit explicit examples contradicting the full conjecture as it currently…

We survey the progress (or lack thereof!) that has been made on some questions about the p-adic slopes of modular forms that were raised by the first author in [Buz05], discuss strategies for making further progress, and examine other…

Fix a prime $p\geq5$, an integer $N\geq1$ relatively prime to $p$, and an irreducible residual global Galois representation $\bar{r}: Gal_{\mathbb{Q}}\rightarrow GL_2(\mathbb{F}_p)$. In this paper, we utilize ghost series to study $p$-adic…

In this paper we extend a conjecture of Ash and Sinnott relating niveau one Galois representation to the mod p cohomology of congruence subgroups of SL(n,Z) to include Galois representations of higher niveau. We then present computational…

This is a book about computational aspects of modular forms and the Galois representations attached to them. The main result is the following: Galois representations over finite fields attached to modular forms of level one can, in almost…

We describe the moduli space G^r_d of triples consisting of a curve C, a line bundle L on C of degree d, and a linear system V on L of dimension r. This moduli space extends over a partial compactification {\tilde M_g} of M_g inside {\bar…

This article starts a computational study of congruences of modular forms and modular Galois representations modulo prime powers. Algorithms are described that compute the maximum integer modulo which two monic coprime integral polynomials…

We use the p-adic local Langlands correspondence for GL_2(Q_p) to find the reduction modulo p of certain two-dimensional crystalline Galois representations. In particular, we resolve a conjecture of Breuil, Buzzard, and Emerton in the case…

The k-regular sequences exhibit a self-similar behaviour between powers of k. One way to study this self-similarity is to attempt to describe the limiting shape of the sequence using measures, which results in an object which we call the…

We present a Serre-type conjecture on the modularity of four-dimensional symplectic mod p Galois representations. We assume that the Galois representation is irreducible and odd (in the symplectic sense). The modularity condition is…

We give a new proof of the slope classicality theorem in classical and higher Coleman theory for modular curves at arbitrary level using the completed cohomology classes attached to overconvergent modular forms. The latter give an embedding…

We formulate a local analogue of the ghost conjecture of Bergdall and Pollack, which essentially relies purely on the representation theory of GL_2(Q_p). We further study the combinatorial properties of the ghost series as well as its…

Let p be a prime and F a totally real field in which p is unramified. We consider mod p Hilbert modular forms for F, defined as sections of automorphic line bundles on Hilbert modular varieties of level prime to p in characteristic p. For a…
