Let $A' = \varprojlim_n A'_n$ be the projective limit of the $p$-parts of the ideal class groups of the $p$ integers in the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-cyclotomic extension $K_{\infty}/K$ of a CM number field $K$. We prove in this paper that the…

The conjecture of Leopoldt states that the $p$ - adic regulator of a number field does not vanish. It was proved for the abelian case in 1967 by Brumer, using Baker theory. A conjecture, due to Gross and Kuz'min will be shown here to be in…

We generalize Waldschmidt's bound for Leopoldt's defect and prove a similar bound for Gross's defect for an arbitrary extension of number fields. As an application, we prove new cases of Gross's finiteness conjecture (also known as the…

We compute the Z-rank of the subgroup of elements of the multiplicative group of a number field K that are norms from every finite level of the cyclotomic Z{\ell}-extension of K. Thus we compare its {\ell}-adification with the group of…

Let $F$ be a totally real field of degree $n$ and $p$ an odd prime. We prove the $p$-part of the integral Gross--Stark conjecture for the Brumer--Stark $p$-units living in CM abelian extensions of $F$. In previous work, the first author…

Let k be a totally real number field ant let k$\infty$ be its cyclotomic Zp-extension for a prime p\textgreater{}2. We give (Theorem 3.2) a sufficient condition of nullity of the Iwasawa invariants lambda, mu, when p totally splits in k,…

The conjecture of Leopoldt states that the $p$ - adic regulator of a number field does not vanish. It was proved for the abelian case in 1967 by Brumer, using Baker theory. We prove this conjecture for CM number fields $\K$. The proof uses…

In this paper, for a CM abelian extension $K/k$ of number fields, we propose a conjecture which describes completely the Fitting ideal of the minus part of the Pontryagin dual of the $T$-ray class group of $K$ for a set $T$ of primes as a…

Given an odd prime number $p$ and a $p$-stabilized Artin representation $\rho$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, we introduce a family of $p$-adic Stark regulators and we formulate an Iwasawa-Greenberg main conjecture and a $p$-adic Stark conjecture which…

In 1980, Gross conjectured a formula for the expected leading term at $s=0$ of the Deligne--Ribet $p$-adic $L$-function associated to a totally even character $\psi$ of a totally real field $F$. The conjecture states that after scaling by…

Let $B$ be a simple CM abelian variety over a CM field $E$, $p$ a rational prime. Suppose that $B$ has potentially ordinary reduction above $p$ and is self-dual with root number $-1$. Under some further conditions, we prove the generic…

The rank one Gross conjecture for Deligne-Ribet $p$-adic $L$-functions was solved in works of Darmon-Dasgupta-Pollack and Ventullo by the Eisenstein congruence among Hilbert modular forms. The purpose of this paper is to prove an analogue…

Let $K$ be a CM field and $K^+$ be the maximal totally real subfield of $K$. Assume that the primes above $p$ in $K^+$ split in $K$. Let $S$ be a set containing exactly half of the prime ideals in $K$ above $p$. We show, assuming Leopoldt's…

For an algebraic number field $K$ and a prime number $p$, let $\widetilde{K}/K$ be the maximal multiple $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension. Greenberg's generalized conjecture (GGC) predicts that the Galois group of the maximal unramified abelian…

Let $K/k$ be a pro-$p$-extension over a number field $k$ whose Galois group is finitely generated and $k_0\subseteq k_1\subseteq\cdots\subseteq k_n\subseteq\cdots$ an ascending sequence of intermediate fields of $K/k$ such that $k_n/k$ is…

Let $k$ be an imaginary quadratic number field, and $F/k$ a finite abelian extension of Galois group $G$. We show that a Gross conjecture concerning the leading terms of Artin $L$-series holds for $F/k$ and all rational primes which are…

The aim of this paper is to investigate the trivial zeros of the Katz $p$-adic $L$-functions by the CM congruence. We prove the existence of trivial zeros of the Katz $p$-adic $L$-functions for general CM fields and establish a first…

We describe Greenberg's pseudo-null conjecture, and prove a result describing conditions under which the pseudo-null conjecture for a number field $K$ implies the conjecture for finite extensions of $K$. We then apply the result to the…

The Steinitz class of a number field extension K/k is an ideal class in the ring of integers O_k of k, which, together with the degree [K:k] of the extension determines the O_k-module structure of O_K. We call rt(k,G) the classes which are…

We study the behaviour of the Stark conjecture for an abelian extension K/k of totally real number fields as K varies in a cyclotomic Z_p-tower. We consider possible strengthenings of the natural norm-coherence in the tower of putative…
