We construct algebras of endomorphisms in the derived category of the cohomology of arithmetic manifolds, which are generated by Hecke operators. We construct Galois representations with coefficients in these Hecke algebras and apply this technique to sharpen recent results of P. Scholze.
This paper generalises previous work of the author to the setting of overconvergent $p$-adic automorphic forms for a definite quaternion algebra over a totally real field. We prove results which are analogues of classical `level raising' results in the theory of mod $p$ modular forms. Roughly speaking, we show that an overconvergent eigenform whose associated local Galois representation at some auxiliary prime $ł$ is (a twist of) a direct sum of trivial and cyclotomic characters lies in a family of eigenforms whose local Galois representation at $ł$ is generically (a twist of) a ramified extension of trivial by cyclotomic. We give some explicit examples of $p$-adic automorphic forms to which our results apply, and give a general family of examples whose existence would follow from counterexamples to the Leopoldt conjecture for totally real fields. These results also play a technical role in other work of the author on the problem of local--global compatibility at Steinberg places for Hilbert modular forms of partial weight one.
We study indefinite quaternion algebras over totally real fields F, and give an example of a cohomological construction of p-adic Jacquet-Langlands functoriality using completed cohomology. We also study the (tame) levels of p-adic automorphic forms on these quaternion algebras and give an analogue of Mazur's `level lowering' principle.
We prove some new cases of local--global compatibility for the Galois representations associated to Hilbert modular forms of low weight (that is, partial weight one).
We describe an application of Poincaré duality for completed homology spaces (as defined by Emerton) to level raising for p-adic modular forms. This allows us to give a new description of the image of Chenevier's p-adic Jacquet-Langlands map between an eigencurve for a definite quaternion algebra and an eigencurve for GL(2). The points on the eigencurve at which we "raise the level" are (non-smooth) points of intersection between an "old" and a "new" component.
We present a level raising result for families of p-adic automorphic forms for a definite quaternion algebra D over the rational numbers. The main theorem is an analogue of a theorem for classical automorphic forms due to Diamond and Taylor. We show that certain families of forms old at a prime l intersect with families of l-new forms (at a non-classical point). One of the ingredients in the proof of Diamond and Taylor's theorem (which also played a role in earlier work of Taylor) is the definition of a suitable pairing on the space of automorphic forms. In our situation one cannot define such a pairing on the infinite dimensional space of p-adic automorphic forms, so instead we introduce a space defined with respect to a dual coefficient system and work with a pairing between the usual forms and the dual space. A key ingredient is an analogue of Ihara's lemma which shows an interesting asymmetry between the usual and the dual spaces.
