We compare the Iwasawa invariants of fine Selmer groups of $p$-adic Galois representations over admissible $p$-adic Lie extensions of a number field $K$ to the Iwasawa invariants of ideal class groups along these Lie extensions. More…

This master thesis describes how Selmer groups can be used to determine the Mordell-Weil group of elliptic curves over a number field K. The Mordell-Weil Theorem states that $E(K) = E(K)_{tors} \times Z^r$, where $r$ is the rank of $E$, and…

Let $p$ be a fixed odd prime number, $\mu$ be a Hida family over the Iwasawa algebra of one variable, $\rho_{\mu}$ its Galois representation, $\mathbb{Q}_\infty/\mathbb{Q}$ the $p$-cyclotomic tower and $S$ the variable of the cyclotomic…

We study the rank of the $p$-Selmer group $Sel_p(A/k)$ of an abelian variety $A/k$, where $k$ is a function field. If $K/k$ is a quadratic extension and $F/k$ is a dihedral extension and the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-corank of $Sel_p (A/K)$ is odd, we…

We propose a conjecture extending the classical construction of elliptic units to complex cubic number fields $K$. The conjecture concerns special values of the elliptic gamma function, a holomorphic function of three complex variables…

Let F be a global function field of characteristic p>0, K/F an l-adic Lie extension unramified outside a finite set of places S and A/F an abelian variety without complex multiplication. We study Sel_A(K)_l^\vee (the Pontrjagin dual of the…

We generalize a result of Frey [Fre88] on the Selmer group of twists of elliptic curves over Q with Q-rational torsion points to elliptic curves defined over number fields of small degree K with a K-rational point. We also provide examples…

Fix a prime number $p$. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of characteristic coprime to 2, 3, and $p$, which also contains the primitive $p$-th root of unity $\mu_p$. Based on the works by Swinnerton-Dyer and Klagsbrun, Mazur, and Rubin,…

We consider the problem of classifying quadruples $(K,E,m_1,m_2)$ where $K$ is a number field, $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $K$ and $(m_1,m_2)$ is a pair of relatively prime positive integers for which the intersection $K(E[m_1])…

In this paper, we consider normalized newforms $f\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N),\varepsilon_f)$ whose non-constant term Fourier coefficients are congruent to those of an Eisenstein series modulo some prime ideal above a rational prime $p$. In this…

In this article we construct characteristic elements for a certain class of Iwasawa modules in noncommutative Iwasawa theory. These elements live in the first K-group K_1(L_T) of the localisation L_T of the Iwasawa algebra L=L(G) of a…

Let k be a field of characteristic zero, V a smooth, positive-dimensional, quasiprojective variety over k, and D a nonempty effective divisor on V. Let K be the function field of V, and A the semilocal ring of D in K. In this paper, we…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $F$ be $\mathbb{Q}$ or an imaginary quadratic field with certain conditions. In this article, we study the ideal class group $\mathrm{Cl}(F_E)$ of the $p$-division field…

We study this subject by first proving that the p-primary subgroup of the classical Selmer group for an elliptic curve with good, ordinary reduction at a prime p has a very simple and elegant description which involves just the Galois…

In section 2, we show a $p$-parity result in a $D_{2p^{n}}$-extension of number fields $L/K$ ($p\geq 5$) for the twist $1\oplus \eta \oplus \tau $: W(E/K,1\oplus \eta \oplus \tau)=(-1)^{< 1\oplus\eta \oplus \tau, X_{p}(E/L)>}, where $E$ is…

Let p be a prime number and M a quadratic number field, M not equal to Q(\sqrt{p}) if p is congruent to 1 modulo 4. We will prove that for any positive integer d there exists a Galois extension F/Q with Galois group D_{2p} and an elliptic…

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…

In this paper, we will study the pseudo-nullity of the fine Selmer group and its related question. Namely, we investigate certain situations, where one can deduce the pseudo-nullity of the dual fine Selmer group of a general Galois module…
