Quadratic Differentials and Equivariant Deformation Theory of Curves

Soit G un p-groupe fini agissant sur une courbe lisse projective X sur un corps algébriquement clos k de caractéristique p. Alors la dimension de l’espace tangent du foncteur de déformations équivariantes associé est égal à la dimension de l’espace de co-invariants de G agissant sur l’espace V de différentielles holomorphes quadratiques globales sur X. On applique des résultats connus sur la structure de module de Galois des espaces Riemann-Roch pour calculer cette dimension dans le cas où G est cyclique ou dans le cas où l’action de G sur X est faiblement ramifiée. De plus, on détermine certaines sous-représentations de V, qui s’appellent rang-p représentations.

Given a finite p-group G acting on a smooth projective curve X over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p, the dimension of the tangent space of the associated equivariant deformation functor is equal to the dimension of the space of coinvariants of G acting on the space V of global holomorphic quadratic differentials on X. We apply known results about the Galois module structure of Riemann-Roch spaces to compute this dimension when G is cyclic or when the action of G on X is weakly ramified. Moreover we determine certain subrepresentations of V, called p-rank representations.
