Questions tagged [galois-representations]

The term Galois representation is frequently used when the G-module is a vector space over a field or a free module over a ring, but can also be used as a synonym for G-module. The study of Galois modules for extensions of local or global fields is an important tool in number theory.

Is a pro-algebraic group over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with Galois action the inverse limit of Galois-equivariant quotients?

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a pro-algebraic group over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with a continuous action of $G_K$ for a field $K$ (if $\mathcal{G}$ were an abelian unipotent group, this is precisely a $p$-adic Galois ...

When is the image of $\operatorname{Gal}(\bar K/K)$ open in $\operatorname{Aut}(V)$, where $V$ is the vector space coming from a $p$-adic Tate module?

Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with ring of integers $A$. Let $F$ be a $p$-divisible group and $T$ be the Tate module. Consider the vector space $V=T \otimes_{\mathbb{Q}_p} C$, where $...

Reference request: étale local system on $\Gamma\backslash\mathcal H$ for $\Gamma$ non-congruence

Suppose $\mathcal H$ is the upper half plane, and $\Gamma\subset \operatorname{PSL}_2(\mathbb Z)$ is a finite index subgroup. Then by Belyi's theorem we know that $\Gamma\backslash\mathcal H$ is an ...

Galois representations attached to discrete automorphic representations

Let $F$ be a totally real field. Let $G$ be a (split) connected reductive group over $F$. Let $\pi$ be an irreducible automorphic representation of $G$. Recall in the work of Buzzard and Gee "The ...

Descent of isogenies between p-divisible groups

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a $p$-divisible group over $K$, which is a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. Let $\rho: \text{Gal}(\bar{K}/K)\rightarrow \text{GL}(T_p\mathcal{G})$ be the associated Galois ...
