On Sharifi's conjecture: exceptional case

Number Theory 2021-03-15 v2

Abstract

In the present article, we study the conjecture of Sharifi on the surjectivity of the map ϖθ\varpi_{\theta}. Here θ\theta is a primitive even Dirichlet character of conductor NpNp, which is exceptional in the sense of Ohta. After localizing at the prime ideal p\mathfrak{p} of the Iwasawa algebra related to the trivial zero of the Kubota\textendash Leopoldt pp-adic LL-function Lp(s,θ1ω2)L_p(s,\theta^{-1}\omega^2), we compute the image of ϖθ,p\varpi_{\theta,\mathfrak{p}} in a local Galois cohomology group and prove that it is an isomorphism. Also, we prove that the residual Galois representations associated to the cohomology of modular curves are decomposable after taking the same localization.
