In this article, we study the p-ordinary Iwasawa theory of the (conjectural) Rubin-Stark elements defined over abelian extensions of a CM field F and develop a rank-g Euler/Kolyvagin system machinery (where 2g is the degree of F), refining…
We prove that in each degree divisible by 2 or 3, there are infinitely many totally real number fields that require universal quadratic forms to have arbitrarily large rank.
We consider the problem of determining whether a given prime p is a congruent number. We present an easily computed criterion that allows us to conclude that certain primes for which congruency was previously undecided, are in fact not…
Let $p\ge 5$ be a prime number, $E/\mathbb{Q}$ an elliptic curve with good supersingular reduction at $p$ and $K$ an imaginary quadratic field such that the root number of $E$ over $K$ is $+1$. When $p$ is split in $K$, Darmon and Iovita…
The goal of this article is two-fold: First, to prove a (two-variable) main conjecture for a CM field $F$ without assuming the $p$-ordinary hypothesis of Katz, making use of what we call the Rubin-Stark $\mathcal{L}$-restricted Kolyvagin…
We analyze complex multiplication for Jacobians of curves of genus 3, as well as the resulting Shimura class groups and their subgroups corresponding to Galois conjugation over the reflex field. We combine our results with numerical methods…
We establish bounds on a finite separable extension of function fields in terms of the relative class number, thus reducing the problem of classifying extensions with a fixed relative class number to a finite computation. We also solve the…
We reduce the classification of finite extensions of function fields (of curves over finite fields) with the same class number to a finite computation; complete this computation in all cases except when both curves have base field…
We study a geometric analogue of the Iwasawa Main Conjecture for constant ordinary abelian varieties over $\ZZ_p^d$-extensions of function fields ramifying at a finite set of places.
We complete the solution of the relative class number one problem for function fields of curves over finite fields. Using work from two earlier papers, this reduces to finding all function fields of genus 6 or 7 over $\mathbb{F}_2$ with one…
Extending the results of [Asian J. Math. 2019], in [Doc. Math. \textbf{21}, 2016] we calculated explicitly the number of isomorphism classes of superspecial abelian surfaces over an arbitrary finite field of \textit{odd} degree over the…
The equivariant `main conjecture' of Iwasawa theory is shown to hold for a Galois extension $K/k$ of number fields with Galois group an $l$-adic pro-$l$ Lie group of dimension 1 containing an abelian subgroup of index $l$, provided that…
Let $K$ be a number field, $A/K$ be an absolutely simple abelian variety of CM type, and $\ell$ be a prime number. We give explicit bounds on the degree over $K$ of the division fields $K(A[\ell^n])$, and when $A$ is an elliptic curve we…
We extend methods of Fontaine, Abrashkin and Schoof to obtain criteria determining number fields K over which no non-zero abelian variety with everywhere good reduction exists. As an application, under the GRH, we find 24744 such fields of…
For a square-free integer $t$, Byeon \cite{byeon} proved the existence of infinitely many pairs of quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{tD})$ with $D > 0$ such that the class numbers of all of them are indivisible…
We consider the family of CM-fields which are pro-p p-adic Lie extensions of number fields of dimension at least two, which contain the cyclotomic Z_p-extension, and which are ramified at only finitely many primes. We show that the Galois…
The augmented Iwasawa algebra of a p-adic Lie group is a generalisation of the Iwasawa algebra of a compact p-adic Lie group. We prove that a split-semisimple group over a p-adic field has a coherent augmented Iwasawa algebra if and only if…
In 1801, Gauss proved that there were infinitely many quadratic fields with odd class number. We generalise this result by showing that there are infinitely many $S_n$-fields of any given even degree and signature that have odd class…
We prove one divisibility relation of the anticyclotomic Iwasawa Main Conjecture for a higher weight ordinary modular form $f$ and an imaginary quadratic field satisfying a "relaxed" Heegner hypothesis. Let $\Lambda$ be the anticyclotomic…
We prove the local equivariant Tamagawa number conjecture for the motive of an abelian extension of an imaginary quadratic field with the action of the Galois group ring for all split primes p not equal to 2 or 3 at all negative integer…
