Explicit Serre weights for two-dimensional Galois representations over a ramified base

Abstract

Given a totally real number field FF and a mod pp Galois representation ρ ⁣:GFGL2(Fˉp)\rho\colon G_F\to \mathrm{GL}_2(\bar{\mathbf{F}}_p), we propose an explicit definition of the set of Serre weights W(ρ)W(\rho) attached to ρ\rho. We prove that our explicit definition is equivalent to previous definitions available in the literature. As a consequence we obtain an explicit Serre's modularity conjecture for Hilbert modular forms over totally real number fields. Our work generalises previous work of Demb\'{e}l\'{e}--Diamond--Roberts and Calegari--Emerton--Gee--Mavrides which together give explicit and equivalent sets of weights when pp is unramified in FF.
