Xavier Caruso: Computation of some Galois deformation rings in the Breuil-Mézard settings

Let p be a prime number \geq 5 and F be an unramified extension of \Q_p. Consider in addition \bar\rho a representation over \bar\F_p of the absolute Galois group of F. To these data, one can associate a ring R(\bar\rho) which parameters deformations of \rho\bar over arbitrary complete local noetherian \bar\Z_p-algebras having residue field \bar\F_p. Breuil-Mézard conjecture predicts the geometry of the special fibres of some quotients R(v,t,\bar\rho) of R(\bar\rho), where v and t are two new parameters coming from p-adic Hodge theory. In this talk, I will present a work in progress with David and Mézard whose aim is to compute explicitely certain rings R(v,t,\bar\rho) and check for them the Breuil-Mézard conjecture.

Tommaso Centeleghe: On abelian varieties over finite fields

Thanks to an old result of Deligne, the category of ordinary abelian varieties over a fixed finite field can be described in terms of finite free Z-modules equipped with a linear operator F (playing the role of Frobenius) satisfying certain axioms. In a recent joint work with Jakob Stix, we prove a similar result for the full subcategory of all abelian varieties over the prime field supported on a finite set of non-real Weil numbers, thereby obtaining a description of non-ordinary isogeny classes in Deligne's spirit. In the talk I will describe the method we use.
