Let G be a nilpotent p-valuable (compact p-adic Lie) group. There is an ongoing investigation into the prime ideals of its completed group algebra (Iwasawa algebra), and there remains an open conjecture that they can all be proved to have a…
Let $\ell$ and $p$ be distinct primes, and let $\G$ be an abelian pro-$p$-group. We study the structure of the algebra $\L:=\Z_\ell[[\G]]$ and of $\L$-modules. The algebra $\L$ turns out to be a direct product of copies of ring of integers…
We introduce a $p$-adic $L$-function $\mathscr L_{A/L}$ associated to an ordinary elliptic curve $A$ over a global function field $K$ of characteristic $p$ together with a $\mathbb{Z}_{p}^{d}$-extension $L/K$, $d=0$ allowed, unramified…
In this note, we compare the dual Selmer groups of an abelian variety with that of its dual over certain large Galois field. We give formula which relates the generalized Iwasawa $\mu$-invariants associated with their dual Selmer groups…
Fix an odd prime $p$. Let $G$ be a compact $p$-adic Lie group containing a closed, normal, pro-$p$ subgroup $H$ which is abelian and such that $G/H$ is isomorphic to the additive group of $p$-adic integers $\mathbbZ_p$ . First we assume…
The $p^\infty$-fine Selmer group of an elliptic curve $E$ over a number field $F$ is a subgroup of the classical $p^\infty$-Selmer group of $E$ over $F$. Fine Selmer group is closely related to the 1st and 2nd Iwasawa cohomology groups.…
For a crystalline p-adic representation of the absolute Galois group of Qp, we define a family of Coleman maps (linear maps from the Iwasawa cohomology of the representation to the Iwasawa algebra), using the theory of Wach modules. Let f =…
Coates, Fukaya, Kato, Sujatha and Venjakob come up with a procedure of attaching suitable characteristic element to Selmer groups defined over a non-commutative $p$-adic Lie extension, which is subsequently refined by Burns and Venjakob. By…
In this paper, we relate three objects. The first is a particular value of a cup product in the cohomology of the Galois group of the maximal unramified outside p extension of a cyclotomic field containing the pth roots of unity. The second…
Let kG be the completed group algebra of a uniform pro-p group G with coefficients in a field k of characteristic p. We study right ideals I in kG that are invariant under the action of another uniform pro-p group Gamma. We prove that if I…
Let $\Lambda$ (isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}_p[[T]]$) denote the usual Iwasawa algebra and $G$ denote the Galois group of a finite Galois extension $L/K$ of totally real fields. When the non-primitive Iwasawa module over the cyclotomic…
We study equivariant Iwasawa theory for two-variable abelian extensions of an imaginary quadratic field. One of the main goals of this paper is to describe the Fitting ideals of Iwasawa modules using $p$-adic $L$-functions. We also provide…
Let $f$ be an elliptic modular form and $p$ an odd prime that is coprime to the level of $f$. We study the link between divisors of the characteristic ideal of the $p$-primary fine Selmer group of $f$ over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$…
A result due to R. Greenberg gives a relation between the cardinality of Selmer groups of elliptic curves over number fields and the characteristic power series of Pontryagin duals of Selmer groups over cyclotomic $\mathbb Z_p$-extensions…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an imaginary quadratic field such that $2$ splits into two primes $\mathfrak{p}$ and $\bar{\mathfrak{p}}$. Let $\mathbb{K}_{\infty}$ be the unique $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension of $\mathbb{K}$ unramified outside…
Our primary goal in this article is to study the Iwasawa theory for semi-ordinary families of automorphic forms on $\mathrm{GL}_2\times\mathrm{Res}_{K/\mathbb{Q}}\mathrm{GL}_1$, where $K$ is an imaginary quadratic field where the prime $p$…
Let $F$ be a global function field of characteristic $p>0$, $\mathcal F/F$ a Galois extension with $Gal(\tilde F/F)\simeq \mathbb{Z}_p^{\mathbb N}$ and $E/F$ a non-isotrivial elliptic curve. We study the behaviour of Selmer groups…
We improve upon the recent keystone result of Dasgupta-Kakde on the $\Bbb Z[G(H/F)]^-$-Fitting ideals of certain Selmer modules $Sel_S^T(H)^-$ associated to an abelian, CM extension $H/F$ of a totally real number field $F$ and use this to…

Iwasawa theory of Heegner points on abelian varieties of GL_2 type has been studied by, among others, Mazur, Perrin-Riou, Bertolini and Howard. The purpose of this paper, the first in a series of two, is to describe extensions of some of…
