Title: Lifting local Galois representations
Speaker: David Savitt
Speaker Info: Arizona
Brief Description:
Special Note:
Abstract:

I will explain the proof of some cases of the weight part of Serre's conjecture over totally real fields. One key ingredient is the construction and study of certain lifts of mod p Galois representations, and this will be the focus of the talk. This is joint work with Toby Gee.
