Monodromy results in characteristic $p$

Mon Oct 5, 20:00-21:00 (starts in 21 hours)
Lecture held in CDS Room 365 in Boston University.

Abstract: A local monodromy result of Igusa from late 1960's, describes the Galois representation associated to the p-power torsion points of the universal elliptic curve near a supersingular point of the modular curve. In this talk, I'll describe my work on such local results for abelian varieties and beyond.
