Abstract
Given a number field with absolute Galois group , a finite Galois module , and a Selmer system , this article gives a method to compute Sel, the Selmer group of attached to . First we describe an algorithm to obtain a resolution of where the morphisms are given by Hecke operators. Then we construct another group and we prove, using the properties of Hecke operators, that is a Selmer group containing Sel. Then, we discuss the time complexity of this method.
