This is a contribution to the ICM 2002. We explain the relation between the (equivariant) Bloch-Kato conjecture for special values of L-functions and the Main Conjecture of (non-abelian) Iwasawa theory. On the way we will discuss briefly…
We prove explicit rationality-results for Asai- $L$-functions, $L^S(s,\Pi',{\rm As}^\pm)$, and Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions, $L^S(s,\Pi\times\Pi')$, over arbitrary CM-fields $F$, relating critical values to explicit powers of $(2\pi i)$.…
Let $F$ be a finite extension of ${\mathbb{Q}} \_p$. Any dihedral supercuspidal representation of $GL \_2 (K)$ arises from an admissible multiplicative character $\omega$ of a quadratic extension $L$ of $K$. We show that such a…
We prove the local equivariant Tamagawa number conjecture for the motive of an abelian extension of an imaginary quadratic field with the action of the Galois group ring for all split primes p not equal to 2 or 3 at all negative integer…
Let E be a CM number field, F its maximal totally real subfield, c the generator of Gal(E/F), p an odd prime totally split in E, and S a finite set of places of E containing the places above p. Let r : G_{E,S} --> GL_3(F_p^bar) be a…
Our objective in the present work is to develop a fairly complete arithmetic theory of critical $p$-adic $L$-functions on the eigencurve. To this end, we carry out the following tasks: a) We give an "\'etale" construction of Bella\"iche's…
Let $\K$ be a galois CM extension of $\Q$ and $\K_{\infty}$ its cyclotomic $\Z_p$-extension. Let $A_n$ be the $p$-parts of the class groups in the intermediate subfields $\K_n \subset \K_{\infty}$ and $\rg{A} = \varprojlim_n A_n$. We show…
We introduce a new ideal {\mathfrak D} of the p-adic Galois group-ring associated to a real abelian field and a related ideal {\mathfrak J} for imaginary abelian fields. Both result from an equivariant, Kummer-type pairing applied to Stark…
Let $f$ be a newform of even weight at least $4$, level $N$ and trivial character. Let $p\nmid N$ be an odd prime number that is ordinary for $f$ and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field satisfying a generalized Heegner hypothesis…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. Let $f_1$ and $f_2$ be weight-two Hecke eigen-cuspforms with isomorphic residual Galois representations at $p$. Greenberg--Vatsal and Emerton--Pollack--Weston showed that if $p$ is a good ordinary prime for the two…
Let p be an odd prime satisfying Vandiver's conjecture. We consider two objects, the Galois group X of the maximal unramified abelian pro-p extension of the compositum of all Z_p-extensions of the pth cyclotomic field and the Galois group G…
We generalise works of Kobayashi to give a formulation of the Iwasawa main conjecture for modular forms at supersingular primes. In particular, we give analogous definitions of even and odd Coleman maps for normalised new forms of arbitrary…
At a prime of ordinary reduction, the Iwasawa ``main conjecture'' for elliptic curves relates a Selmer group to a $p$-adic $L$-function. In the supersingular case, the statement of the main conjecture is more complicated as neither the…
For a finite group $G$ and a sufficiently large (but fixed) prime power $q$ coprime to $G$ we obtain asymptotics for the number of regular Galois extensions $L/ \mathbb{F}_q(t)$, with $\mathrm{Gal}(L/\mathbb{F}_q(t)) \cong G$, ramified at a…
We give a survey on noncommutative main conjectures of Iwasawa theory in a geometric setting, i.e. for separated schemes of finite type over a finite field, as stated and proved by Burns and the author. We will also comment briefly on…
It is well known that, for any finitely generated torsion module M over the Iwasawa algebra Z_p [[{\Gamma} ]], where {\Gamma} is isomorphic to Z_p, there exists a continuous p-adic character {\rho} of {\Gamma} such that, for every open…
We establish the automorphy of some families of 2-dimensional representations of the absolute Galois group of a totally real field, which do not satisfy the so-called `Taylor--Wiles hypothesis'. We apply this to the problem of the…
We provide an infinite family of quadratic number fields with everywhere unramified Galois extensions of Galois group $SL_2(7)$. To my knowledge, this is the first instance of infinitely many such realizations for a perfect group which is…
Let G be the absolute Galois group of a global field. Let r1 and r2 be two p-adic, finite dimensional representations of G. Then there exists a finite number of primes q such that if the characteristic polynomials of r1(Frob_q) and…
This article is the first of a pair of articles dealing with the Iwasawa theory of modular forms of weight 1 and, more generally, of Artin representations satisfying certain conditions. The main results in this part analyze the structure of…
