We develop a machine for bounding Selmer groups of Galois representations via Euler systems in "non-ordinary" settings, using Pottharst's definition of Selmer groups via Robba-ring $(\varphi, \Gamma)$-modules. Our approach relies on…

We completely calculate the Fitting ideal of the classical $p$-ramified Iwasawa module for any abelian extension $K/k$ of totally real fields, using the shifted Fitting ideals recently developed by the second author. This generalizes former…

In Iwasawa theory, the $\lambda$, $\mu$-invariants of various arithmetic modules are fundamental invariants that measure the size of the modules. Concerning the minus components of the unramified Iwasawa modules, Kida proved a formula that…

A $p$-divisible group over a field $K$ admits a slope decomposition; associated to each slope $\lambda$ is an integer $m$ and a representation $\gal(K) \ra \gl_m(D_\lambda)$, where $D_\lambda$ is the $\rat_p$-division algebra with Brauer…

Let $F$ be a function field of characteristic $p>0$, $\F/F$ a Galois extension with $Gal(\F/F)\simeq \Z_l^d$ (for some prime $l\neq p$) and $E/F$ a non-isotrivial elliptic curve. We study the behaviour of Selmer groups $Sel_E(L)_r$ ($r$ any…

Given an odd prime number $p$ and an imaginary quadratic field $K$, we establish a relationship between the $p$-rank of the class group of $K$, and the classical $\lambda$-invariant of the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$.…

Let $L/K$ be a finite, totally ramified $p$-extension of complete local fields with residue fields of characteristic $p > 0$, and let $A$ be a $K$-algebra acting on $L$. We define the concept of an $A$-scaffold on $L$, thereby extending and…

Let $p\ge5$ be a prime number. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve with complex multiplication by an imaginary quadratic field $K$ such that $p$ is inert in $K$ and that $E$ has good reduction at $p$. Let $K_\infty$ be the…

Let K be a local field whose residue field is a finite field of characteristic p, and let L/K be a finite totally ramified Galois extension. Fried and Heiermann defined the "indices of inseparability" of L/K, a refinement of the…

We study $p$-adic integral models of certain PEL Shimura varieties with level subgroup at $p$ related to the $\Gamma_1(p)$-level subgroup in the case of modular curves. We will consider two cases: the case of Shimura varieties associated…

Let $p\geq 5$ be a prime number. We consider the Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariants associated to modular Bloch-Kato Selmer groups, considered over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $g$ be a $p$-ordinary cuspidal…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field of degree $r=[K:\mathbb{Q}]$ and let $p$ be an odd rational prime. Let $K_{\infty}$ denote the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extension of $K$ and let $L_{\infty}$ be a finite extension of $K_{\infty}$,…

We obtain lower bounds for Selmer ranks of elliptic curves over dihedral extensions of number fields. Suppose $K/k$ is a quadratic extension of number fields, $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $k$, and $p$ is an odd prime. Let $F$…

We extend Kobayashi's formulation of Iwasawa theory for elliptic curves at supersingular primes to include the case $a_p \neq 0$, where $a_p$ is the trace of Frobenius. To do this, we algebraically construct $p$-adic $L$-functions…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $F$ with good reduction at primes above $p$. In this survey article, we give an overview of some of the important results proven for the fine Selmer group…

This paper is lead by the question whether there is a nice structure theory of finitely generated modules over the Iwasawa algebra, i.e. the completed group algebra, R of a p-adic analytic group G. For G without any p-torsion element we…

In this paper, we study the fine Selmer groups attached to a Galois module defined over a commutative complete Noetherian ring with finite residue field of characteristic p. Namely, we are interested in its properties upon taking residual…

If G is a pro-p, p-adic, Lie group and if $\Lambda(G)$ denotes the Iwasawa algebra of G then we present a formula for determining the $\Lambda(G)$-rank of a finitely generated $\Lambda(G)$-module. This is given in terms of the G homology…
