Irreducible representations of compact groups

Let G be a compact group (or even profinite - Galois group). Let $V$ be a vector space over the field ${\mathbb F}_p$ with $p$ elements, $p$ a finite prime, such that $V$ is a contable product of ${\...

Pro-$l$ Sylow action in a primitive representation of inertia over $\overline{\mathbb{F}}_l$

Let $K$ be a nonarchimedean local field of residue characteristic $p \neq l$ and let $I_K$ be the inertia subgroup of its absolute Galois group. Let $V$ an irreducible representation of $I_K$ over $\...

Which de Rham representations are trianguline?

Let $K/\mathbf{Q}_p$ be a finite extension, and let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional $\overline{\mathbf{Q}_p}$-vector space with a continuous action of $G_K$. Suppose $V$ is de Rham, so potentially ...

Decompositions of representations of pro-p groups

Let $P$ be a pro-p group. Assume that there is a filtration of $P$ by normal subgroups $P_i$ such that $P_0=P$ and $P_{i+1} < P_i(i\in\mathbb N)$. Let $V$ be an $l$-adic representation of $P$, ...

Subgroups of GL(2,q)

I have been wondering about something for a while now, and the simplest incarnation of it is the following question: Find a finite group that is not a subgroup of any $GL_2(q)$. Here, $GL_2(q)$ is ...

The operator \boxtimes and \boxplus in automorphic representations

Given two automorphic representations $\pi_1, \pi_2$ of $GL_2(\mathbb A_Q)$ and $GL_3(\mathbb A_Q)$ respectively. Let $\pi_i =\otimes_v \pi_{i, v}$. Now, for each $v$, let $\pi_{1, v}\boxtimes \pi_{...

$l$-adic representations from Shimura curves

This question may be kind of vague. And we use the same notations as in Carayol's papers: H. Carayol, Sur les représentations l-adiques associées aux formes modulaires de Hilbert; H. Carayol, Sur la ...

Dimension of fixed points of Galois group actions

I have a question about fixed points of Galois group actions. I am hoping that this is easy for the experts. Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$. Let $K$ be a finite Galois extension of $k$ ...

Galois theory of endomorphism rings of irreducible representations

Let $k$ be a field which I don't suppose to be algebraically closed. Then, the endomorphism ring of any irreducible representation of a finite group over $k$ is a division ring. What is known about ...
