Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a global field $F$ of positive characteristic $p$ and let $\calf/F$ be a $\Z_p^{\N}$-extension, unramified outside a finite set of places of $F$. Assuming that all ramified places are totally…

We review the main conjecture for an elliptic curve on $\Q$ having good supersingular reduction at $p$ and give some consequences of it. Then we define the notion of $\lambda$-invariant and of $\mu$- invariant in this situation,…

It is often the case that a Selmer group of an abelian variety and a group related to an ideal class group can both be naturally embedded into the same cohomology group. One hopes to compute one from the other by finding how close each is…

A fundamental observation of Iwasawa gives a criterion for a module over the classical Iwasawa algebra to be torsion. In this paper, we study a certain extension of this criterion. We will then apply this to study the structure of the…

We introduce an analogue of the Mertens conjecture for elliptic curves over finite fields. Using a result of Waterhouse, we classify the isogeny classes of elliptic curves for which this conjecture holds in terms the size of the finite…

The primary objective of this paper is the study of different instances of the elliptic Stark conjectures of Darmon, Lauder and Rotger, in a situation where the elliptic curve attached to the modular form $f$ has split multiplicative…

Let $N$ be a positive integer and $K$ be a number field. Suppose that $f_1,f_2 \in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ are two newforms such that their residual Galois representations at $2$ are isomorphic. Let $\omega_2: G_{\mathbb Q} \rightarrow {\mathbb…

The main conjectures of Iwasawa theory provide the only general method known at present for studying the mysterious relationship between purely arithmetic problems and the special values of complex L-functions, typified by the conjecture of…

We prove analogues of the major algebraic results of Greenberg-Vatsal for Selmer groups of $p$-ordinary newforms over $\mathbf{Z}_p$-extensions which may be neither cyclotomic nor anticyclotomic, under a number of technical hypotheses,…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field where $p$ is inert. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $K$ and suppose that $E$ has good supersingular reduction at $p$. In this paper, we prove that the plus/minus Selmer group of $E$ over the…

We obtain explicit formulas for the number of non-isomorphic elliptic curves with a given group structure (considered as an abstract abelian group). Moreover, we give explicit formulas for the number of distinct group structures of all…

In this series of three papers, we introduce and study cyclotomic pairs and smooth profinite groups. They are a geometric axiomatisation of Kummer theory for fields, with coefficients $p$-primary roots of unity, for a prime $p$. These…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $F$. In this paper, we study the structure of the $p^\infty$-Selmer group of $E$ over $p$-adic Lie extensions $F_\infty$ of $F$ which are obtained by adjoining to $F$ the $p$-division…

In this short note, we study the anticyclotomic analogue of the "weak" main conjecture of Mazur-Tate on Fitting ideals of Selmer groups for elliptic curves with supersingular reduction.

We study the Iwasawa main conjecture for quadratic Hilbert modular forms over the p-cyclotomic tower. Using an Euler system in the cohomology of Siegel modular varieties, we prove the "Kato divisibility" of the Iwasawa main conjecture under…

For certain families of elliptic curves admitting a rational isogeny of prime degree $\ell$, we establish a central limit theorem for the Tamagawa ratio and derive bounds on its average value. By using the Tamagawa ratio to bound the size…

Our main result in this article is a proof (under mild technical assumptions) of an analogue for $p$-adic Galois representations attached to a newform $f$ of even weight $k\geq4$ of Kolyvagin's conjecture on the $p$-indivisibility of…

We consider the unramified Iwasawa module $X (F_\infty)$ of a certain $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $F_\infty/F_0$ generated by division points of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication. This $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension has properties…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a global function field $K$ of characteristic $p$. We study the $\mu$-invariant appearing in the Iwasawa theory of $A$ over the unramified $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$. Ulmer suggests that this…

Let E be a rational elliptic curve of conductor N without complex multiplication and let K be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant D prime to N. Assume that the number of primes dividing N and inert in K is odd, and let H be the…
