Two Dimensional Galois Representations Over Imaginary Quadratic Fields
2:15pm|S-101

To a regular algebraic cuspidal representation of GL(2) over a quadratic imaginary field, whose central character is conjugation invariant, Taylor et al. associated a two dimensional Galois representation which is unramified at l different from p...

Ramification in Iwasawa Modules
Chandrashekar Khare
2:15pm|S-101

Iwasawa developed his theory for class groups in towers of cyclotomic fields partly in analogy with Weil's theory of curves over finite fields. In this talk, we present another such conjectural analogy. It seems intertwined with Leopoldt's...

Vanishing Theorems for Torsion Automorphic Sheaves
2:15pm|S-101

In this talk, I will explain my joint work with Junecue Suh on when and why the cohomology of Shimura varieties (with nontrivial integral coefficients) has no torsion, based on certain new vanishing theorems we have proved. (All conditions involved...

On Families of Filtered phi Modules and Crystalline Representations
Eugen Hellmann
2:15pm|S-101

We study families of filtered phi-modules associated to families of p-adic Galois representations as considered by Berger and Colmez. We show that the weakly admissible locus in a family of filtered phi-modules is open and that the groupoid of...

Relative p-Adic Hodge Theory
2:15pm|S-101

The theory of (\varphi, \Gamma)-modules, which was introduced by Fontaine in the early 90's, classifies local Galois representations into modules over certain power series rings carrying certain extra structures (\varphi and \Gamma). In a recent...

Potential Automorphy for Compatible Systems of l-Adic Galois Representations
David Geraghty
2:15pm|S-101

I will describe a joint work with Barnet-Lamb, Gee and Taylor where we establish a potential automorphy result for compatible systems of Galois representations over totally real and CM fields. This is deduced from a potential automorphy result for...
