Iwasawa showed that there are non-cyclotomic $\mathbb Z_p$-extensions with positive $\mu$-invariant. We show that these $\mu$-invariants can be evaluated explicitly in many situations when $p=2$ and $p=3$.
We generalize a formula of Leopoldt which relates the p-adic regulator modulo p of a real abelian extension of Q with the value of the relative Dedekind zeta function at s=2-p. We use this generalization to give a statement on the…
Combining P\'{o}sa's rotation lemma with a technique of Kopylov in a novel approach, we prove a generalization of the Erd\H{o}s-Gallai theorems on cycles and paths. This implies a clique version of the Erd\H{o}s-Gallai stability theorems…
We disprove, by means of numerical examples, the existence of a Riemann-Hurwitz formula for the p-ranks of relative class groups in a p-ramified p-extension K/k of number fields of CM-type containing ?\_p. In the cyclic case of degree p,…
For a prime number p, we denote by K the cyclotomic Z_p-extension of a number field k. For a finite set S of prime numbers, we consider the S-ramified Iwasawa module which is the Galois group of the maximal abelian pro-p-extension of K…
Let F be a p-adic field with residue class field k. We investigate the structure of certain mod p universal modules for GL(3,F) over the corresponding Hecke algebras. To this end, we first study the structure of some mod p universal modules…
We investigate the first two Galois cohomology groups of $p$-extensions over a base field which does not necessarily contain a primitive $p$th root of unity. We use twisted coefficients in a systematic way. We describe field extensions…
Let F be a non-trivial finite extension of the p-adic numbers, and G be a compact p-adic Lie group whose Lie algebra is isomorphic to a split semisimple F-Lie algebra. We prove that the mod p Iwasawa algebra of G has no modules of canonical…
We prove a moving lemma for the additive and ordinary higher Chow groups of relative $0$-cycles of regular semi-local $k$-schemes essentially of finite type over an infinite perfect field. From this, we show that the cycle classes can be…
We prove Tchebotarev type theorems for function field extensions over various base fields: number fields, finite fields, p-adic fields, PAC fields, etc. The Tchebotarev conclusion - existence of appropriate cyclic residue extensions - also…
This paper aims at studying the Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariant of the $p$-primary Selmer group. We study the growth behaviour of $p$-primary Selmer groups in $p$-power degree extensions over non-cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of a number…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p$ and $\Gamma$ an infinite, first countable pro-$p$ group. We study the behavior of the $p$-primary part of the "motivic class group", i.e. the full $p$-divisible group of the Jacobian, in any…
The equivariant `main conjecture' of Iwasawa theory is shown to hold for a Galois extension $K/k$ of number fields with Galois group an $l$-adic pro-$l$ Lie group of dimension 1 containing an abelian subgroup of index $l$, provided that…
We prove a homological stabilization theorem for Hurwitz spaces: moduli spaces of branched covers of the complex projective line. This has the following arithmetic consequence: let l>2 be prime and A a finite abelian l-group. Then there…
In this note we give a new existence proof for the universal extension classes for $GL_2$ previously constructed by Friedlander and Suslin via the theory of strict polynomial functors. The key tool in our approach is a calculation of Parker…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a global field $K$ of characteristic $p \ge 0$. If $A$ has nontrivial (resp. full) $K$-rational $l$-torsion for a prime $l \neq p$, we exploit the fppf cohomological interpretation of the $l$-Selmer group…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. We study the structure of the cyclotomic Greenberg-Selmer group attached to a general irreducible Artin motive over $\mathbb{Q}$ endowed with an ordinary $p$-stabilization. Under the Leopoldt and the weak $p$-adic…
We examine in detail the stable reduction of Galois covers of the projective line over a complete discrete valuation field of mixed characteristic (0, p), where G has a cyclic p-Sylow subgroup of order p^n. If G is further assumed to be…
We prove a general version of Quillen's Theorem B, for actions of simplicial categories, in an arbitrary left Bousfield localization of the homotopy theory of simplicial presheaves over a site. As special cases, we recover a version of the…
The aim of the present paper is to give evidence, largely numerical, in support of the non-commutative main conjecture of Iwasawa theory for the motive of a primitive modular form of weight k>2 over the Galois extension of Q obtained by…
