Tag - Galois theory
We consider the coherent cohomology of toroidal compactifications of Shimura varieties with coefficients in the canonical extensions of automorphic vector bundles and show that they can be computed as relative Lie algebra cohomology of automorphic representations. Consequently, any Galois representation attached to these coherent cohomology should be automorphic. Our proof is based on Franke’s work on singular cohomology of locally symmteric spaces and via Faltings' BGG spectral sequence we’ve also strengthened Franke’s result in the Shimura variety case.
If two motives are congruent, is it the case that the special values of their respective L-functions are congruent? More precisely, can the formula predicting special values of motivic L-functions be interpolated in p-adic families of motives? I will explain how the formalism of the Weight-Monodromy filtration for p-adic families of Galois representations sheds light on this question (and suggests a perhaps surprising answer).
In a recent preprint with Sug Woo Shin I construct Galois representations corresponding for cohomological cuspidal automorphic representations of general symplectic groups over totally real number fields under the local hypothesis that there is a Steinberg component. In this talk I will explain some parts of this construction that involve the eigenvariety.
For a representation of the absolute Galois group of the rationals over a finite field of characteristic p, we would like to know if there exists a lift to characteristic 0 with nice properties. In particular, we would like it to be geometric in the sense of the Fontaine-Mazur conjecture: ramified at finitely many primes and potentially semistable at p. For 2-dimensional representations, Ramakrishna proved that under technical assumptions, odd representations admit geometric lifts. We generalize this to higher dimensional orthogonal and symplectic representations. The key ingredient is a smooth local deformation condition obtained by analysing unipotent orbits and their centralizers in the relative situation, not just over fields.
Given the p-adic Galois representation associated to a regular algebraic polarized cuspidal automorphic representation, one naturally obtains a pure weight zero representation called its adjoint representation. Because it has weight zero, a conjecture of Bloch and Kato says that the only de Rham extension of the trivial representation by this adjoint representation is the split extension. We will discuss a proof of this case of their conjecture, under an assumption on the residual representation. This is done by using the Taylor-Wiles patching method, Kisin's technique of analyzing the generic fibre of deformation rings, and a characterization of smooth closed points in the generic fibre of certain local deformation rings.
