We relate the structure of the Bloch-Kato groups associated with a de Rham Galois representation over a perfectoid field to the Galois theory of the ring $\mathbf{B}_\mathrm{dR}^+$ of $p$-adic periods. As an application, we answer the…

We consider lifting of mod p representations to mod p^2 representations in the setting of representations of (i) finite groups; (ii) absolute Galois groups of abstract fields; and (iii) absolute Galois groups of local and global fields.

We study an analogue of Serre's modularity conjecture for projective representations $\overline{\rho}: \operatorname{Gal}(\overline{K} / K) \rightarrow \operatorname{PGL}_2(k)$, where $K$ is a totally real number field. We prove new cases…

In this paper we introduce a new method for finding Galois groups by computer. This is particularly effective in the case of Galois groups of p-extensions ramified at finitely many primes but unramified at the primes above p. Such Galois…

Let $p\geq 5$ be a prime number. We consider the Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariants associated to modular Bloch-Kato Selmer groups, considered over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $g$ be a $p$-ordinary cuspidal…

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…

We study the growth of the Galois invariants of the $p$-Selmer group of an elliptic curve in a degree $p$ Galois extension. We show that this growth is determined by certain local cohomology groups and determine necessary and sufficient…

We study $p$-adic Hodge theory for families of Galois representations over pseudorigid spaces. Such spaces are non-archimedean analytic spaces which may be of mixed characteristic, and which arise naturally in the study of eigenvarieties at…

A Hopf Galois structure on a finite field extension L/K is given by a finite cocommutative K-Hopf algebra and a Hopf action. In this paper we present an algorithm written in the computational algebra system Magma which gives all Hopf Galois…

Motivated by the work of Greenberg-Vatsal and Emerton-Pollack-Weston, I investigate the extent to which Mazur's conjecture on the growth of Selmer ranks in $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of an imaginary quadratic field persists under…

For any abelian variety J over a global field k and an isogeny phi: J -> J, the Selmer group Sel^phi(J,k) is a subgroup of the Galois cohomology group H^1(Gal(ksep/k), J[phi]), defined in terms of local data. When J is the Jacobian of a…
