چکیده

The proof of Serre’s conjecture on Galois representations over finite fields allows us to show, using a trick due to Serre himself, that all rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds defined over Q are modular. The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato. Alfred North Whitehead,

S ep 2 00 0 THE MODULARITY CONJECTURE FOR RIGID CALABI – YAU THREEFOLDS OVER

: We formulate the modularity conjecture for rigid Calabi–Yau threefolds defined over the field Q of rational numbers. We establish the modularity for the rigid Calabi–Yau threefold arising from the root lattice A3. Our proof is based on geometric analysis. 1. The L–series of Calabi–Yau threefolds Let Q be the field of rational numbers, and let Q̄ be its algebraic closure with Galois group G := ...

M ar 2 00 4 Computing the level of a modular rigid Calabi - Yau threefold Luis

In a previous article (cf. [DM]), the modularity of a large class of rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds was established. To make that result more explicit, we recall (and re-prove) a result of Serre giving a bound for the conductor of “integral” 2-dimensional compatible families of Galois representations and apply this result to give an algorithm that determines the level of a modular rigid Calabi-Yau...

On the modularity of three Calabi-Yau threefolds with bad reduction at 11

The modularity of rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds over Q has recently been established for a huge class of manifolds (cf. [DM]). However, the number of explicit examples of modular (rigid and non-rigid) Calabi-Yau threefolds is still quite small (cf. [Y]). As a consequence, only a few primes of bad reduction, combining to the level of the associated newform, have appeared in those examples which ca...

Modular Calabi–yau Threefolds of Level Eight

If X̃ is a Calabi–Yau threefold defined over Q, and p is a good prime (i.e., a prime such that the reduction of X̃ mod p is nonsingular) then the map Frob∗p : H i ét(X̃,Ql) −→ H i ét(X̃,Ql) on l–adic cohomology induced by the geometric Frobenius morphism gives rise to l–adic Galois representations ρl,i : Gal(Q/Q) −→ GLbi(Ql). If a Calabi–Yau threefold X̃ is rigid (i.e., h(X̃) = 0 or equivalently b(X̃)...
