Modular Galois representations into GL_2(F_p) with cyclotomic determinant arise from elliptic curves for p = 2,3,5. We show (by constructing explicit examples) that such elliptic curves cannot be chosen to have conductor as small as…

For each prime number $\ell$ and for each imaginary quadratic order of class number one or two, we determine all the possible $\ell$-adic Galois representations that occur for any elliptic curve with complex multiplication by such an order…

For all odd primes N up to 500000, we compute the action of the Hecke operator T_2 on the space S_2(Gamma_0(N), Q) and determine whether or not the reduction mod 2 (with respect to a suitable basis) has 0 and/or 1 as eigenvalues. We then…

For an odd prime p, we determine a minimal set of topological generators of the pro-p Iwahori subgroup of a split reductive group G over Z\_p. In the simple adjoint case and for any sufficiently large regular prime p, we also construct…

It is known that for any elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ and any integer $m$ co-prime to $30,$ the induced Galois representation $\rho_{E,m}: \text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q}) \longrightarrow \text{GL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})$…

Using the link between mod $p$ Galois representations of $\qu$ and mod $p$ modular forms established by Serre's Conjecture, we compute, for every prime $p\leq 1999$, a lower bound for the number of isomorphism classes of continuous Galois…

The distribution of primes raising the level of even Galois representations of tetrahedral type is studied. Data are presented on primes $v\leq 10^8$ raising the level of $3$-adic even representations of various conductors. Based on the…

The sets of primitive foms may be decomposed into some Galois conjugacy classes. The purpose of this paper is to write down all of such classes with cardinal 1 or 2, explicitly in terms of some Eisenstein series, for level 1,2,3,4,6,8,9.…

In this paper it is explained how one can construct non-selfdual 4-dimensional $\ell$-adic Galois representations of Hodge type $h^{3,0}=h^{2,1}=h^{1,2}=h^{0,3}=1$, assuming a hypothesis concerning the cohomology of a certain threefold. For…

Let $\ell\geq 5$ be a prime number and $\mathbb{F}_\ell$ denote the finite field with $\ell$ elements. We show that the number of Galois extensions of the rationals with Galois group isomorphic to $GL_2(\mathbb{F}_\ell)$ and absolute…

We show that any two-dimensional odd dihedral representation \rho over a finite field of characteristic p>0 of the absolute Galois group of the rational numbers can be obtained from a Katz modular form of level N, character \epsilon and…

A precise and testable modularity conjecture for rational abelian surfaces A with trivial endomorphisms, End_Q A = Z, is presented. It is consistent with our examples, our non-existence results and recent work of C. Poor and D. S. Yuen on…

Let G be a connected, compact, semisimple algebraic group over the field of real numbers R. Using Kac diagrams, we describe combinatorially the first Galois cohomology sets H^1(R,H) for all inner forms H of G. As examples, we compute…

In a recent preprint, F. Calegari has shown that for $\ell = 2, 3, 5$ and 7 there exist 2-dimensional surjective representations $\rho$ of $\Gal(\bar{\Q}/\Q)$ with values in $\F_\ell$ coming from the $\ell$-torsion points of an elliptic…

Let $A$ be a principally polarized abelian variety of dimension $g$ over a number field $K$. Assume that the image of the adelic Galois representation of $A$ is an open subgroup of $\operatorname{GSp}_{2g}(\hat{\mathbb{Z}})$. Then there…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ without complex multiplication defined over a number field $K$, consider the image of the Galois representation defined by letting Galois act on the torsion of $E$. Serre's open image theorem implies that there…

We report extensive computational evidence that Gauss period equations are minimal discriminant polynomials for primitive elements representing Abelian (cyclic) polynomials of prime degrees $p$. By computing 200 period equations up to…

By extending the notion of spin of prime ideals, we show that a short character sum conjecture implies that the set of primes raising the level of a certain even Galois representation has density 2/3, as conjectured by Ramakrishna in 1998.

We prove classification results for the cuspidal automorphic algebraic representations of ${\rm GL}_n$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ ($n$ arbitrary) of small prime conductor and small motivic weight, in the spirit of the works of Chenevier, Lannes and…

Let $p\geq 7$ be a prime and $n>1$ be a natural number. We show that there exist infinitely many Galois representations $\varrho:Gal(\bar{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q})\rightarrow GL_{n}(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ which are unramified outside $\{p, \infty\}$…
