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…

Let $K = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-q})$, where $q$ is any prime number congruent to $7$ modulo $8$, and let $\mathcal{O}$ be the ring of integers of $K$. The prime $2$ splits in $K$, say $2\mathcal{O} = \mathfrak{p} \mathfrak{p}^\ast$, and there is…

Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of $p$-adic fields and let $L_{\infty}$ be the unramified $\mathbb Z_p$-extension of $L$. Then $L_{\infty}/K$ is a one-dimensional $p$-adic Lie extension. In the spirit of the main conjectures of…

We prove a slight generalization of Iwasawa's `Riemann-Hurwitz' formula for number fields and use it to generalize Ferrero's and Kida's well-known computations of Iwasawa \lambda-invariants for the cyclotomic Z_2-extensions of imaginary…

Let f be a modular form of weight 2 and trivial character. Fix also an imaginary quadratic field K. We use work of Bertolini-Darmon and Vatsal to study the mu-invariant of the p-adic Selmer group of f over the anticyclotomic Zp-extension of…

We discuss three different formulations of the equivariant Iwasawa main conjecture attached to an extension K/k of totally real fields with Galois group G, where k is a number field and G is a p-adic Lie group of dimension 1 for an odd…

In this paper we give a short, elementary proof of the following too extreme cases of the Leopoldt conjecture: the case when $\K/\Q$ is a solvable extension and the case when it is a totally real extension in which $p$ splits completely.…

This paper contains a complete proof of Fukaya's and Kato's epsilon$-isomorphism conjecture in [23] for invertible \Lambda-modules (the case of V = V_0(r) where V_0 is unramified of dimension 1). Our results rely heavily on Kato's…

In this paper we give a bound for the Iwasawa lambda invariant of an abelian number field attached to the cyclotomic Z_p-extension of that field. We also give some properties of Iwaswa power series attached to p-adic L-functions.

We show that the cyclotomic conjecture on the characteristic polynomial of T-ramified S-split Iwasawa modules introduced in a previous paper and satisfied by abelian fields governs the Z${\ell}$-rank of the submodule of fixed points for all…

In this paper we prove Greenberg's pseudo-null conjecture for the field of p-th roots of unity in the case that p exactly divides the class number and the index of the global units in the local units. We also generalize to the case of…

We study the Iwasawa theory of a CM elliptic curve $E$ in the anticyclotomic $\mathbf{Z}_p$-extension of the CM field, where $p$ is a prime of good, ordinary reduction for $E$. When the complex $L$-function of $E$ vanishes to even order,…

Iwasawa showed that there are non-cyclotomic $\mathbb Z_p$-extensions with positive $\mu$-invariant. We show that these $\mu$-invariants can be evaluated explicitly in many situations when $p=2$ and $p=3$.

Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of number fields and let $G=\mathrm{Gal}(L/K)$. We show that under certain hypotheses on $G$, for a fixed prime number $p$, Leopoldt's conjecture at $p$ for certain proper intermediate fields of $L/K$ implies…

For a real quadratic field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$, let $K_{\infty}$ denote the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extension of $K$. Greenberg conjectured that the corresponding Iwasawa module $X_{\infty}$ is finite. Building on the work of…

This paper is about the Iwasawa theory of elliptic curves over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $\mathbb{Q}^{\text{cyc}}$ of $\mathbb{Q}$. We discuss a deep conjecture of Greenberg that if $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with…

We prove the Iwasawa-theoretic version of a Conjecture of Mazur--Rubin and Sano in the case of elliptic units. This allows us to derive the $p$-part of the equivariant Tamagawa number conjecture at $s = 0$ for abelian extensions of…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ of conductor $N$, $p$ an odd prime of good ordinary reduction such that $E[p]$ is an irreducible Galois module, and $K$ an imaginary quadratic field with all primes dividing $Np$ split.…

If E is an elliptic curve over Q and K is an imaginary quadratic field, there is an Iwasawa main conjecture predicting the behavior of the Selmer group of E over the anticyclotomic Z_p-extension of K. The main conjecture takes different…

We deduce the cyclotomic Iwasawa main conjecture for Hilbert modular cuspforms with complex multiplication from the multivariable main conjecture for CM number fields. To this end, we study in detail the behaviour of the $p$-adic…
