On the Iwasawa Main conjecture of abelian varieties over function fields

Number Theory 2013-04-29 v2

Abstract

We study a geometric analogue of the Iwasawa Main Conjecture for abelian varieties in the two following cases: constant ordinary abelian varieties over ZpdZ_p^d-extensions of function fields (d1d\geq 1) ramified at a finite set of places, and semistable abelian varieties over the arithmetic ZpZ_p-extension of a function field. One of the tools we use in our proof is a pseudo-isomorphism relating the duals of the Selmer groups of AA and its dual abelian variety AtA^t. This holds as well over number fields and is a consequence of a quite general algebraic functional equation.

80 pages; many relevant changes all over the paper from v1. Among the most significant ones: new introduction; proof of the functional equation for Gamma systems in more cases and some applications to CM abelian varieties
