Let M be a compact Riem~ nn surface, JSa finite Oalois unramifled covering, with Galois group O. Let IF be a vector space with G-action. The d~ agonal action of O on)~• Vis free and the quotient is a vector bundle IF on X. It was shown by A Well that there are two polynomialsf and g with nononegative integer coefficients with f# g andf (IF) isomorphic to g (It). Isomorphism clasr~ s of vector bundles on M form a semioring with respect to direct sums and tensor products, so the expressions f (l 0 and g (l 0 make sense as vector bundles on X. A vector bundle B, on Xsatisfying this property is called finite. We prove the converse: a finite vector bundle~ arises from a representation of the Galois group for a suitable tmramified covering~--. X. It is easy to see that a line bundle L is finite if and only if L is a point of timte order in the Jacobian of M. For such a line bundle, the function field of~ is junta simple Kumrn: r extension of the function field of, Y. Thus our theorem for line bundles simply asserts that the characters of the etale fundamental group of. It (waich is the proflnite completion of the topological fundamental group of Mare in one-to-one correspondence with line bundles of finite order on. t*. This is, of course, a weU-i~ nown fact, and a very useful one because the structure of the abelian group of all such line bundles is determined very easily by the topology of the Jacobian. Whereas it is not clear how to go about determining the flaite bundles from the variety of stable bundles on~'; consequently our theorem has met with no utility.It" Mis a complete connected reduced scheme over a field k, finite vector bur. dies still malae sense. An essentially finite bundle is justa sub-quotient of I#, amaining in the semi-stable category. If G is a finite group-scheme and P is a principal O-bundle on M, the representations of O give rise to essentially finite btmdles on. Y and in fact all essentially finite bundles are obtained in this manner. In characteristic zero, finite= essentiaLly finite. This is the content of Chapter I.
