Errata

Galois theory, elliptic curves, and root numbers, Compositio Math. (1996), 311 -- 349.
In the first line of the paragraph containing displayed formula (3.6) on p. 331, the equation $K=F(\Delta^{1/e})$ should be $K=F(\varpi^{1/e})$.

A deformation of the Tate module, J. of Algebra 229 (2000), 280 -- 313.
The formula for $\theta(c)$ on p. 294 is in error: The coefficient of $X^2$ should be $(c^4-c^2)/12$, not $(c^4+2c^2-3c)/24$. Although very embarrassing, the error is inconsequential in the sense that there was no need to display the coefficient of $X^2$ in the first place.
