The Taylor-Wiles method for reductive groups
… which we use to develop a variant of the Taylor–Wiles method. Our generalization allows Taylor–Wiles places for which the image of Frobenius is semisimple, a weakening of the regular semisimple constraint imposed previously in the literature. We introduce the notion of Ĝ-adequate subgroup, our …

On the Modularity of Higher-Dimensional Varieties
In this thesis, we first introduce Wiles' method to establish that a Calabi-Yau threefold defined over the field Q with 2-dimensional ℓ-adic cohomology is modular, answering a question of Saito & Yui. Second, we show that a quintic threefold with 4-dimensional middle cohomology is Hilbert …

The spectral imagination: American art between science and superstition in the late nineteenth century
… Romanzo Elmer (1850–1923), and Irving Ramsay Wiles (1861–1948), this project examines the interplay of these ostensibly opposing worldviews in painting. It traces how the interdependence of these terms—which were very much in flux during the era—provided a creative paradigm for negotiating the …

René Schoof's Algorithm for Determining the Order of the Group of Points on an Elliptic Curve over a Finite Field
… of elliptic curves was used by Andrew Wiles et. al., to construct a proof of Fermat's last theorem, a problem which challenged mathematicians for more than 300 years. In addition, elliptic curves over finite fields find practical application in the areas of cryptography and coding …
