Let ${\cal M}_{g,[n]}$, for $2g-2+n>0$, be the D-M moduli stack of smooth curves of genus $g$ labeled by $n$ unordered distinct points. The main result of the paper is that a finite, connected \'etale cover ${\cal M}^\l$ of ${\cal…
We define the notion of a $G$-structure for elliptic curves, where $G$ is a finite 2-generated group. When $G$ is abelian, a $G$-structure is the same as a classical congruence level structure. There is a natural action of…
We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic polynomial over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a self-similar closed subgroup of the group of…
We completely determine the $1085$ open subgroups $H$ of $\operatorname{GL}_2(\widehat{\mathbb{Z}})$ of prime-power level that satisfy $-I \in H$ and $\operatorname{det}(H)=\widehat{\mathbb{Z}}^{\times}$ for which the corresponding modular…
Using the canonical JSJ splitting, we describe the outer automorphism group $\Out(G)$ of a one-ended word hyperbolic group $G$. In particular, we discuss to what extent $\Out(G)$ is virtually a direct product of mapping class groups and a…
We show that if we are given a smooth non-isotrivial family of elliptic curves over~$\mathbb C$ with a smooth base~$B$ for which the general fiber of the mapping $J\colon B\to\mathbb A^1$ (assigning $j$-invariant of the fiber to a point) is…
Let X be a smooth curve over a finite field of characteristic p, let E be a number field, and consider an E-compatible system of lisse sheaves on the curve X. For each place lambda of E not lying over p, the lambda-component of the system…
In this paper we study the automorphism group of the procongruence mapping class group through its action on the associated procongruence curve and pants complexes. Our main result is a rigidity theorem for the procongruence completion of…
For a non-CM elliptic curve $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, the Galois action on its torsion points gives rise to a Galois representation $\rho_E: Gal(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q})\to GL_2(\widehat{\mathbb{Z}})$ that is unique up to…
Using the machinery of etale homotopy theory a' la Artin-Mazur we determine the etale homotopy types of moduli stacks over $\bar{\Q}$ parametrizing families of algebraic curves of genus g greater than 1 endowed with an action of a finite…
We obtain some general restrictions on the continuous endomorphisms of a profinite group G under the assumption that G has only finitely many open subgroups of each index (an assumption which automatically holds, for instance, if G is…
If $X$ is a variety with an additional structure $\xi$, such as a marked point, a divisor, a polarization, a group structure and so forth, then it is possible to study whether the pair $(X,\xi)$ is defined over the field of moduli. There…
We compute the Z/\ell and \ell-adic monodromy of every irreducible component of the moduli space M_g^f of curves of genus and and p-rank f. In particular, we prove that the Z/\ell-monodromy of every component of M_g^f is the symplectic…
Let $E$ be a non-CM elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb {Q}$. Fix an algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb {Q}}$ of $\mathbb {Q}$. We get a Galois representation \[\rho_E \colon Gal(\overline{\mathbb {Q}}/\mathbb {Q}) \to GL_2(\hat{\mathbb…
Let $\{\rho_{\ell}:\mathrm{Gal}_K\to\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{Q}_{\ell})\}_{\ell}$ be a semisimple compatible system of $\ell$-adic representations of a number field $K$ that is arising from geometry. Let…
Let $n\geq 1$. The pro-unipotent completion of the pure braid group of $n$ points on a genus 1 surface has been shown to be isomorphic to an explicit pro-unipotent group with graded Lie algebra using two types of tools: (a) minimal models…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a Bruhat-Tits group scheme on $X$ which is generically semi-simple and trivial. We show that the \'etale fundamental group of the moduli stack…
The group of 2-by-2 matrices with integer entries and determinant $\pm > 1$ can be identified either with the group of outer automorphisms of a rank two free group or with the group of isotopy classes of homeomorphisms of a 2-dimensional…
We prove results about the intersection of the p-rank strata and the boundary of the moduli space of hyperelliptic curves in characteristic p > 2. Using this, we prove that the Z/\ell-monodromy of every irreducible component of the stratum…
By a recent result of Viehweg, projective manifolds with ample canonical class have a coarse moduli space, which is a union of quasiprojective varieties. In this paper, we prove that there are manifolds with ample canonical class that lie…
