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.

Do Tamagawa numbers of Galois representations stabilise in the cyclotomic tower?

As stated, the answer to your question is certainly no. For instance, an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb Q$ with split multiplicative ordinary reduction at $p$ will have unbounded Tamagawa number at $p$ i …

CM abelian varieties and potential good reduction

No, absolutely not In fact, the hypotheses you discuss are rather weak. Take $F$ a totally real number field. If $A/F$ is the abelian variety attached to an eigenform $f$ of weight $2$ and level $N$, …

Status of Fontaine-Mazur conjecture

It is true if $V$ is of dimension 1, essentially by class field theory (as you are considering only representations of $G_{\mathbb Q}$). Otherwise, it is still largely open for the following reasons. …

What is the image of complex conjugation under Siegel Galois representations?

Let $G$ be the reductive group $\operatorname{GSp}_{4}$. Let $\pi$ be a smooth admissible cuspidal representation of $\operatorname{GSp}_{4}(\mathbb{A}^{(\infty)})$ of dominant weight. Assume, for cau …

About the restriction of a modular representation to a decomposition subgroup

This hinges on what you mean exactly by explicit description. Here is what is happening. Let me write $N_f$ for the conductor of $f$. Fontaine defined a number of so-called period rings to study $p$- …

Does the $p$-part of the level of a newform appear in its attached $p$-adic representation?

The answer to the question in the title is yes, as explained in the last paragraph below. However, under a literal interpretation of "can" (implying actual feasibility), I believe the answer to the q …

Level lowering for weight 1 forms

Everything you wish for is true for modular forms over $\mathbb Q$ even at $p=2$, as it follows from refined forms of Serre's conjecture; here I am assuming of course that $\bar{\rho}$ is absolutely i …

Cohomology of $SL_2(\mathbb{F}_p)$ acting on trace zero matrices over $\mathbb{F}_p$

It seems to me that Sah's lemma will do the trick. (Sah's lemma) Let $G$ be a group, $M$ a $G$-representation and $g\in Z(G)$. Then $x\mapsto (g-1)x$ is the zero map on $H^{1}(G,M)$. The proof i …

Steinberg components of local deformation rings

If I understand correctly, I believe that you want $r:\Gamma\longrightarrow\operatorname{GL}_2(R)$ to factor through $R^{\operatorname{St}}$ if $r$ is a non-trivial extension of $\beta$ by $\alpha$ wi …

Are there Galois representations associated with any regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic ...

In Motifs et formes automorphes: applications du principe de fonctorialité by Laurent Clozel (in Automorphic forms, Shimura varieties and $L$-functions Volume I (1990)), it is asked in 4.3.2 whether t …

Conductor of Galois representation attached to newform

In fact much more than the equality of conductor is true: the local Galois representation $\rho_{F,\lambda}|G_{\mathbb Q_{p}}$ obtained by restricting $\rho_{F,\lambda}$ to the decomposition group at …

Universal deformations of modular Galois representations

This is not always possible. Suppose we could always find such an $M$. Take $\bar{\rho}$ reducible at $p$ with scalar image of the Frobenius. Then $M\otimes_{R_{\bar{\rho}}}R^{\operatorname{ord}}_{\ …

Status of conjectures in Serre's 1969 expose on Galois representations on l-adic cohomology

Because I recently had to think about this, let me sum up the results I know about conjecture C5. This conjecture is known to hold for any $m\in\mathbb N$ if the dimension of $Y$ is less than 2 by Ta …

Periods for 2-variable p-adic L-functions

Assuming you are writing about Mok's Compositio 2009 article, the answer is easy: it's a question of quantifier ordering. There are two statements which you could call the interpolation property for a …

Why does $H^1(G_p/I_p,\mathbb{F}(\delta\epsilon^{-1}))$ vanish?

A variant of David Loeffler's answer... If more generally $V$ is a $G_{\mathbb Q_{p}}$-representation with coefficients in a field, then the dimension of $H^{1}(G_{p}/I_{p},V)$ (EDIT : or rather $H^{ …
