Abstract

In this paper we will prove some cases of the Fontaine-Mazur conjecture. Let p be an odd prime and let G(Q,{p}) be the Galois group over Q of the maximal unramified-outside-p extension of Q. We show that tinder certain hypotheses, the universal deformation of the action of G(Q,{p}) on the 2-torsion of an elliptic curve defined over Q has finite image. We compute the associated universal deformation ring, and we show in the process that (S) over cap (4) caps Q for the prime 2, where (S) over cap (4) is the double cover of S(4) whose Sylow 2-subgroups are generalized quaternion groups.
