چکیده

We prove that the equation A+B = Cp has no solutions in coprime positive integers when p ≥ 211. The main step is to show that, for all sufficiently large primes p, every Q-curve over an imaginary quadratic field K with a prime of bad reduction greater than 6 has a surjective mod p Galois representation. The bound on p depends on K and the degree of the isogeny between E and its Galois conjugate, but is independent of the choice of E. The proof of this theorem combines geometric arguments due to Mazur, Momose, Darmon, and Merel with an analytic estimate of the average special values of certain L-functions.

Galois actions on Q - curves and

We prove two “large images” results for the Galois representations attached to a degree d Q-curve E over a quadratic field K: if K is arbitrary, we prove maximality of the image for every prime p > 13 not dividing d, provided that d is divisible by q (but d 6= q) with q = 2 or 3 or 5 or 7 or 13. If K is real we prove maximality of the image for every odd prime p not dividing dD, where D = disc(...

Teichmüller curves are geodesic discs in Teichmüller space that project to algebraic curves C in the moduli space Mg. Some Teichmüller curves can be considered as components of Hurwitz spaces. We show that the absolute Galois group GQ acts faithfully on the set of these embedded curves. We also compare the action of GQ on π1(C) with the one on π1(Mg) and obtain a relation in the Grothendieck-Te...

Octahedral Galois Representations Arising from Q-curves of Degree 2

Generically, one can attach to a Q-curve C octahedral representations ρ : Gal(Q/Q) −→ GL 2 (F 3) coming from the Galois action on the 3-torsion of those abelian varieties of GL 2-type whose building block is C. When C is defined over a quadratic field and has an isogeny of degree 2 to its Galois conjugate, there exist such representations ρ having image into GL 2 (F 9). Going the other way, we ...

Galois representations which are not minimally elliptic

In a recent preprint (see [C]), F. Calegari has shown that for l = 2, 3, 5 and 7 there exist 2-dimensional irreducible representations ρ of Gal(Q̄/Q) with values in Fl coming from the l-torsion points of an elliptic curve defined over Q, but not minimally, i.e., so that any elliptic curve giving rise to ρ has prime-to-l conductor greater than the (prime-to-l) conductor of ρ. In this brief note, ...

MULTI-FREY Q-CURVES AND THE DIOPHANTINE EQUATION a + b = c

We show that the equation a2 +b6 = cn has no nontrivial positive integer solutions with (a, b) = 1 via a combination of techniques based upon the modularity of Galois representations attached to certain Q -curves, corresponding surjectivity results of Ellenberg for these representations, and extensions of multi-Frey curve arguments of Siksek.
