Eichler-Shimura over Totally Real Fields
By Eichler-Shimura over totally real fields I mean the following conjecture.
Conjecture. Let $K$ be a totally real field. Let $f$ be a Hilbert eigenform with rational eigenvalues, of parallel weight $...

Deligne's letter to Jean-Pierre Serre
I'm looking for another letter of Pierre Deligne, this time to Jean-Pierre Serre (from around 1974 I think), in which he proves that the Galois representation associated to a certain Hecke eigenform ...

Tameness criterion in the reducible case
Dear MO,
This is a follow up to a previous question here in MO, but I will make this question self-contained for convenience. Those already familiar with the following paper [G] by Gross can safely ...

List of applications of the Deformation theory of Galois Representations in contexts other that $R=T$
The Deformation theory of Galois representations developed by Mazur has been extensively used in proving that Galois representations with special properties are modular/automorphic through the ...

Is there some computational evidence of the $pq$ analog of Serre's conjecture?
The $pq$ analog of Serre's conjecture (see "Mod pq Galois representations and Serre's Conjecture"- Khare, Kiming) states that if $\bar{\rho}_1:G_{\mathbb{Q}}\rightarrow \text{GL}_2(\mathbb{F}_p)$ is a ...

Is there a conjectural analog of Ribet's theorem (Converse to Herbrand's Theorem) for Imaginary Quadratic fields?
For $p$ a prime, let $Cl(\mathbb{Q}(\mu_p))$ denote the class group of the extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ obtained by adjoining a primitive $p$th root of unity. Associated to an eigenform of weight 2 and ...

Benedict Gross's paper on companion forms
In the page 458 of his paper(A tameness criterion for Galois representations associated to modular forms), Gross wrote the following
"A detailed analysis of $U_p(Af)+V_p(<p>f)$ shows that it

Diophantine consequences of the Buzzard–Diamond–Jarvis conjecture
Serre's modularity conjecture famously implies Fermat Last Theorem. More generally, Serre's conjecture implies that certain generalized Fermat equations have no non-trivial solutions (see Section 4.1 ...

Criterion for constancy in Mazur's Eisenstein ideal paper
In the paper of Mazur, Modular curves and the Eisenstein ideal (1977), he showed the following (at page 57):
Lemma (3.4) (Criterion for constancy) Let $G$ be an etale admissible $p$-group over $\text{...

On De Shalit's Lemma in Wiles' proof of R=T
In Wiles' proof of ``$R = {\Bbb T}$", if we associate the extra primes the set of which is denoted $D$, there is a famous result in the following$\colon$
Theorem(De Shalit's Lemma). Let ${\Bbb T}_N$ ...

Finiteness of points over the cyclotomic extension for modular forms
Let $\rho(f):G_\mathbb{Q} \rightarrow GL_2(K_f)$ be the Galois representation attached to some cuspidal modular form $f$ where $K_f$ is a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$.
Let $V_f$ be the vector ...

modular forms with lots of companion forms
Let $f$ be a modular form (say of weight 2) and let $S$ be the set of primes $p$, the reductions modulo $p$ of $\rho_{f,p}$
restricted to $G_p$ splits. Equivalently, $S$ is the set of prime $p$ such ...

Deforming Modular Symbols
This is probably a silly question, as I don't really know a whole lot about modular symbols over arbitrary rings.
How do modular symbols over a finite field square with Katz modular forms? If they ...

Global minimal discriminants of elliptic curves and Galois representations
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $\Delta$ be the global minimal discriminant. By A. Wiles et al. $E$ is modular so that there is a corresponding modular form $f$. I am wondering if ...

Compute dimension of space of modular forms by counting Galois representations
It is known that we can compute the dimension of the space $S_{k}^{\mathrm{new}}(N, \chi)$ of new forms of weight $k\geq 2$ and level $N$ and Nebentypus $\chi$ via Riemann-Roch theorem or using ...

Necessary and sufficient condition for a prime to be represented by an arbitrary positive definite binary quadratic form $ax^2+bxy+cy^2$
Given an arbitrary (but fixed) positive definite primitive integral binary quadratic form $g(x, y)=ax^2+bxy+cy^2$, and let $m$ be an arbitrary integer. We will denote the discriminant of $g$ by $D=D_g=...

Construction of RM abelian variety from eigenform
Let $f$ be a normalized eigenform of weight $2$ level $N$. If the Fourier coefficients of $f$ generate a totally real field $F$, then we associate to $f$ a system of $\ell$-adic Galois representations ...
