Research
Akio Tamagawa is mainly working on covers and fundamental groups of
algebraic varieties (especially, curves and their moduli spaces) from
the viewpoint of arithmetic geometry. In this direction, he is
particularly interested in anabelian geometry and, among other things,
he has proved the Grothendieck conjecture for affine curves over finite
fields and over fields finitely generated over the rationals. Recently,
he is studying various types of refinement of anabelian geometry jointly
with Mohamed Saidi, l-adic and modulo l representations of fundamental
groups jointly with Anna Cadoret and Chun Yin Hui, and a certain
finiteness conjecture for abelian varieties (motivated by Yasutaka
Ihara's question about the outer Galois representation on the
fundamental group of the projective line minus three points) jointly
with Christopher Rasmussen.
