The deformation theory of curves is studied by using the canonical ideal. The problem of lifting curves with automorphisms is reduced to a lifting problem of linear representations.
We are investigating the lifting problem for local actions involving semidirect products of a cyclic $p$-group with a cyclic group prime to $p$, where $p$ represents the characteristic of the special fiber. We establish a criterion based on the Harbater-Katz-Gabber compactification of local actions, enabling us to determine whether a given local action can be lifted or not. Specifically, in the case of the dihedral group, we present an example of a local dihedral action that cannot be lifted. This instance provides a more potent obstruction than the KGB obstruction.
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a modular representation of a group $G=C_{p^h} \rtimes C_m$ in a field of characteristic zero to be lifted to a representation over local principal ideal domain of characteristic zero containing the $p^h$ roots of unity.
The automorphism group of a curve is studied from the viewpoint of the canonical embedding and Petri's theorem. A criterion for identifying the automorphism group as an algebraic subgroup the general linear group is given. Furthermore the action of the automorphism group is extended to an action of the minimal free resolution of the canonical ring of the curve $X$.
