Local Oort groups and the isolated differential data criterion

Huy Dang, Soumyadip Das, Kostas Karagiannis +2

It is conjectured that if k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0, then any branched G-cover of smooth projective k-curves where the "KGB" obstruction vanishes a…

Lifting of curves with automorphisms

Andrew Obus

The lifting problem for curves with automorphisms asks whether we can lift a smooth projective characteristic p curve with a group G of automorphisms to characteristic zero. This w…

Good reduction of three-point Galois covers

Andrew Obus

Michel Raynaud gave a criterion for a three-point G-cover f : Y \rightarrow X = P^1, defined over a p-adic field K, to have good reduction. In particular, if the order of a p-Sylow…
