Lifting of families of curves to characteristic 0
Let $k$ be a finite field, $X_0$ be a smooth affine variety over $k$ and $C\rightarrow X$ a smooth projective family of curves of genus $\geq 2$.
By a result of Elkik we can always lift $X_0$ to a ...

Function fields of characteristic p modular curves, and mod p reductions of the classical modular equation
Let l and p be distinct primes, l>2. There are "characteristic p modular curves" X_0(l) and X(l), defined over an algebraic closure, K, of Z/p, solving moduli problems for elliptic curves with some ...

vanishing of higher algebraic de Rham cohomology and sheaves of differentials for singular curves
I'm looking for some results or references about de Rham cohomology of curves in less-than-optimal cases. The two vanishing results I care about are:
$H^{k}_{\text{dR}}(X) = 0$ for $k>2$, since $H^...

Examples of semi-stable models of curves
Let $R$ be a discrete valuation ring with fraction field $K$ of characteristic zero and residue field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Assume $k$ is algebraically closed. I want to produce examples of ...

Smoothability of stable curves in mixed characteristic
Let $R$ be a complete DVR with residue field $k$ algebraically closed of characteristic $p$ and fraction field $K$ of characteristic zero. Let $C$ be a stable curve (in the sense of Mumford-Deligne) ...
