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 certain refinement of anabelian geometry
of curves over finite fields 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 reprensentation on the
fundamental group of the projective line minus three points) jointly with
Christopher Rasmussen.
