Description
We describe the Calegari-Geraghty method for proving modularity lifting theorems beyond the classical setting of the Taylor-Wiles method. We discuss the three conjectures that this method relies on (existence of Galois representations, local-global compatibility and vanishing of cohomology outside a certain range of degrees) and their current status, and then explain the commutative algebra underlying the method.
