The usual Katz-Mazur model for the modular curve X(p^n) has horribly singular reduction. For large n there isn't any model of X(p^n) which has good reduction, but after extending the base one can at least find a semistable model, which means that...

Let p and l be two distinct prime numbers, and fix a positive integer d . I will explain how the F_l-cohomology complex of the Lubin-Tate tower of height d of a p-adic field K realizes mod l versions of both the semi-simple Langlands correspondence...

Let p be an odd prime number and let F be a totally real field. Let F_cyc be the cyclotomic extension of F generated by the roots of unity of order a power of p . From the maximal abelian extension of F_cyc which is unramified (resp. unramified...

Let $\overline K$ be an algebraic closure of a $p$-adic field $K$. We construct a separated noetherian regular scheme $X$ (nonalgebraic) equipped with an action of $G_K=\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{K}/K)$. We have $H^0(X, O_X) = Q_p$ and $H_1(X, O_X) = 0$...

The cohomology of arithmetic groups (with real coefficients) is usually understood in terms of automorphic forms. Such methods, however, fail (at least naively) to capture information about torsion classes in integral cohomology. We discuss a...
