Galois theory and torsion points on curves

Matthew H. Baker, Kenneth A. Ribet (2003)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

In this paper, we survey some Galois-theoretic techniques for studying torsion points on curves. In particular, we give new proofs of some results of A. Tamagawa and the present authors for studying torsion points on curves with “ordinary good” or “ordinary semistable” reduction at a given prime. We also give new proofs of : (1) the Manin-Mumford conjecture : there are only finitely many torsion points lying on a curve of genus at least 2 embedded in its jacobian by an Albanese map; and (2) the...

Galois theory of q -difference equations

Marius van der Put, Marc Reversat (2007)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Choose q with 0 < | q | < 1 . The main theme of this paper is the study of linear q -difference equations over the field K of germs of meromorphic functions at 0 . A systematic treatment of classification and moduli is developed. It turns out that a difference module M over K induces in a functorial way a vector bundle v ( M ) on the Tate curve E q : = * / q that was known for modules with ”integer slopes“, [Saul, 2]). As a corollary one rediscovers Atiyah’s classification ( [ A t ] ) of the indecomposable vector bundles on the complex Tate...

Galois theory of special trinomials.

Shreeram S. Abhyankar (2003)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

This is the material which I presented at the 60th birthday conference of my good friend José Luis Vicente in Seville in September 2001. It is based on the nine lectures, now called sections, which were given by me at Purdue in Spring 1997. This should provide a good calculational background for the Galois theory of vectorial ( = additive) polynomials and their iterates.

Gaudin's model and the generating function of the Wroński map

Inna Scherbak (2003)

Banach Center Publications

We consider the Gaudin model associated to a point z ∈ ℂⁿ with pairwise distinct coordinates and to the subspace of singular vectors of a given weight in the tensor product of irreducible finite-dimensional sl₂-representations, [G]. The Bethe equations of this model provide the critical point system of a remarkable rational symmetric function. Any critical orbit determines a common eigenvector of the Gaudin hamiltonians called a Bethe vector. In [ReV], it was shown that for generic...

Gauss–Manin connections for p -adic families of nearly overconvergent modular forms

Robert Harron, Liang Xiao (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We interpolate the Gauss–Manin connection in p -adic families of nearly overconvergent modular forms. This gives a family of Maass–Shimura type differential operators from the space of nearly overconvergent modular forms of type r to the space of nearly overconvergent modular forms of type r + 1 with p -adic weight shifted by 2 . Our construction is purely geometric, using Andreatta–Iovita–Stevens and Pilloni’s geometric construction of eigencurves, and should thus generalize to higher rank groups.
