The density of ramified primes in semisimple \(p\)-adic Galois representations. (Q2729307)

Let \(K\) be a finite extension of \(\mathbb{Q}_p\). Consider a continuous, semisimple \(p\)-adic Galois representation \(\rho: G_L\to GL_m(K)\) of the absolute Galois group \(G_L\) of a number field \(L\).NEWLINENEWLINE The authors prove that the set of primes ramifying in \(\rho\) is of density zero (Theorem 1). The proof relies on the structure of the Galois group \(G_q\) of the maximal tamely ramified extension of \(\mathbb{Q}_q\) for a certain set of primes \(q\neq p\) (defined in 2.1).
