We prove a $p$-converse theorem for elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$ with complex multiplication by the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ of an imaginary quadratic field $K$ in which $p$ is ramified. Namely, letting $r_p =…

We use the theory of reduced determinant functors from [24] to give a new, computationally useful, description of the relative $K_0$-groups of orders in finite dimensional separable algebras that need not be commutative. By combining this…

Some PARI programs have bringed out a property for the non-genus part of the class number of the imaginary quadratic fields, with respect to $(\sqrt D\,)^{\varepsilon}$, where $D$ is the absolute value of the discriminant and $\varepsilon…

Kashiwara conjectured that the hard Lefshetz theorem and the semisimplicity theorem hold for any semisimple perverse sheaf M on a variety over a field of characteristic 0. He also conjectured that if you apply to such M the nearby cycle…

This is the first in a series of articles where we will study the Iwasawa theory of an elliptic modular form f along the anticyclotomic Zp-tower of an imaginary quadratic field K where the prime p splits completely. Our goal in this portion…

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…

The main aim of this paper is to investigate Greenberg's conjecture for real biquadratic fields. More precisely, we propose the following problem: What are real biquadratic number fields $k$ such that ${\rm rank}(A(k_\infty)) = {\rm…

In this paper we establish a connection between the Gauss factorials and Iwasawa's cyclotomic $\lambda$-invariant for an imaginary quadratic field $K$. As a result, we will explain a corespondance between the 1-exceptional primes of…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ an elliptic curve with good supersingular reduction at a prime $p\geq 5$, and $K$ an imaginary quadratic field such that the root number of $E$ over $K$ equals $-1$. When $p$ splits in $K$, Castella and Wan formulated the…

Let $h_{(m,k)}$ be the class number of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{1-2m^k}).$ We prove that for any odd natural number $k,$ there exists $m_0$ such that $k \mid h_{(m,k)}$ for all odd $m > m_0.$ We also prove that for any odd $m \geq 3,$ $k \mid…

In this paper, we extend the results of \cite{BCGS} on refined conjectures by Kurihara and Kolyvagin, allowing primes of any reduction type in the case of Kurihara's conjectures, and inert primes in the underlying imaginary quadratic field…

In 1977 Kervaire and Murthy presented three conjectures regarding $K_0 \mathbb{Z} C_{p^n}$, where $C_{p^n}$ is the cyclic group of order $p^n$ and $p$ is a semi-regular prime. The Mayer-Vietoris exact sequence provides the following short…

In [7] we proposed a non-generational conjectural derivation of all first class constraints (involving, only, variables compatible with canonical Poisson brackets) for realistic gauge (singular) field theories; and we verified the…

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…

For odd primes $p$, we let $K_p:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p)$ be the $p$th cyclotomic field and let $\omega$ denote its Teichmuller character. For $\alpha>1/2$, we say that an odd prime $p$ is partially regular if the eigenspaces of the $p$-Sylow…

For any odd prime $p,$ we construct an infinite family of pairs of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d}),\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+1})$ whose class numbers are both divisible by $p.$ One of our theorems settles Iizuka's conjecture for…

Let $K$ be a complete discrete valued field of characteristic $p$ with residue $k$ which is not necessarily perfect. We prove the Conjecture in \cite{cs} that a $p$-algebra over $K$ contains a totally ramified cyclic maximal subfield if it…

This is a two - part paper, in which we prove the following fact: let K be a CM field and L/K be a CM Z_p-extension. Then the Iwasawa mu-invariant of L vanishes. For the case when L is the cyclotomic Z_p extension, this is the Iwasawa…

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…

We use Iwasawa theory, at a prime $p$ inert in a quadratic imaginary field $K$, to study the arithmetic properties of mock plectic invariants for elliptic curves of rank two. More precisely, under some minor technical assumptions, we prove…
