Potentially crystalline deformation rings and Serre weight conjectures: shapes and shadows

  • Published:
Inventiones mathematicae Aims and scope

Abstract

We prove the weight part of Serre’s conjecture in generic situations for forms of U(3) which are compact at infinity and split at places dividing p as conjectured by Herzig (Duke Math J 149(1):37–116, 2009). We also prove automorphy lifting theorems in dimension three. The key input is an explicit description of tamely potentially crystalline deformation rings with Hodge–Tate weights (2, 1, 0) for \(K/\mathbb {Q}_p\) unramified combined with patching techniques. Our results show that the (geometric) Breuil–Mézard conjectures hold for these deformation rings.
