Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of number fields. We prove two lower bounds on the maximum of the degrees of the irreducible complex representations of ${\rm Gal}(L/K)$, the sharper of which is conditional on the Artin Conjecture and the…
We prove the vanishing of the geometric Bloch-Kato Selmer group for the adjoint representation of a Galois representation associated to regular algebraic polarized cuspidal automorphic representations under an assumption on the residual…
We prove asymptotics for mollified first and second moments of subfamilies of Dirichlet $L$-functions given by shrinking angular restrictions on the root number. Using these moments, we prove that for even primitive characters with prime…
We prove an analogue of Deligne's period conjecture for the special value of the L-function of an abelian variety over a global function field twisted by an Artin representation. We illustrate this in action for an example of an elliptic…
In this paper, we prove the non-existence of certain semistable Galois representations of a number field. Our consequence can be applied to some geometric problems. For example, we prove a special case of a Conjecture of Rasmussen and…
We prove some $K$-theoretic descent results for finite group actions on stable $\infty$-categories, including the $p$-group case of the Galois descent conjecture of Ausoni-Rognes. We also prove vanishing results in accordance with…
Let $\Sigma_{g,n}$ be an orientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures. We study actions of the mapping class group of $\Sigma_{g,n}$ via Hodge-theoretic and arithmetic techniques. We show that if $$\rho: \pi_1(\Sigma_{g,n})\to…
We prove the Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing theorem for a large class of divisors on surfaces in positive characteristic. By using this vanishing theorem, Reider-type theorems and extension theorems of morphisms for normal surfaces are…
We prove that one hundred percent of the closed geodesic periods of a Hecke--Maa{\ss} cusp form for the modular group are non-vanishing when ordered by length. We present applications to the non-vanishing of central values of…
We establish some new cases of Artin's conjecture. Our results apply to Galois representations over $\Q$ with image $S_5$ satisfying certain local hypotheses, the most important of which is that complex conjugation is conjugate to…
In previous work we described when a single geometric representation, valued in a linear algebraic group, of the Galois group of a number field lifts through a central torus quotient to a geometric representation. In this paper we prove a…
We prove a variety of results on the existence of automorphic Galois representations lifting a residual automorphic Galois representation. We prove a result on the structure of deformation rings of local Galois representations, and deduce…
The question about modular forms have recently received a lot of attention; concerning the non-vanishing of automorphic L-functions Michel, Kowalski and Vanderkam proved (among others results) that there's positive proportion of…
Using equidistribution results of Katz and a computation in finite symplectic groups, we give an explicit asymptotic formula for the proportion of curves C over a finite field for which the l-torsion of Jac(C) is isomorphic to a given…
In a series of papers, van Geemen and Top have defined a family of surfaces $S_z$ indexed by a nonzero integer parameter $z$, and a compatible family of 3-dimensional Galois representations over $\Q(i)$ attached to each surface. In this…
In this paper, we prove new instances of the inverse Galois problem over global function fields for finite groups of Lie type. This is done by constructing compatible systems of $\ell$-adic Galois representations valued in a semisimple…
Let $X\to S$ be a smooth projective morphism. Katz proved the Grothendieck-Katz $p$-curvature conjecture for the Gauss-Manin connection on the $i$-th cohomology of $X/S$: if its $p$-curvature vanishes mod $p$ for infinitely many $p$, then…
Deligne has formulated extremely influential conjectures about certain special values of the $L$-functions of (Grothendieck) motives over a number field $F$. Given the conjectural dictionary between motives and 'algebraic' automorphic…
Given a number field $k$, we show that, for many finite groups $G$, all the Galois extensions of $k$ with Galois group $G$ cannot be obtained by specializing any given finitely many Galois extensions $E/k(T)$ with Galois group $G$ and $E/k$…
We present a simple analytic proof that L-functions of real non-principal Dirichlet characters are nonzero at 1.
