What are the possible singular fibers of an elliptic fibration over a higher dimensional base?

An elliptic fibration is a proper morphism $Y\rightarrow B$ between varieties such that the fiber over a general point of the base $B$ is a smooth curve of genus one. It is often required for the ...

Exposition of Drinfeld's proof of function field Langlands for GL(2)

I know, or think I know, the vague outline of the proof: the Galois-to-automorphic direction is "classical," i.e. follows from converse theorems due to Grothendieck et al., and for the ...

For how many primes does an elliptic curve over a totally imaginary field have supersingular reduction?

An elliptic curve over a finite field, $k$, of characteristic p is called supersingular if it has no $p$-torsion over $k^{\mathrm{alg}}$, or equivalently, if $\mathrm{End}(E)$ is an order in a ...
