This paper studies fine Selmer groups of elliptic curves in abelian $p$-adic Lie extensions. A class of elliptic curves are provided where both the Selmer group and the fine Selmer group are trivial in the cyclotomic…
In this paper, we study the fine Selmer groups attached to a Galois module defined over a commutative complete Noetherian ring with finite residue field of characteristic p. Namely, we are interested in its properties upon taking residual…
The $p^\infty$-fine Selmer group of an elliptic curve $E$ over a global field is a subgroup of the classical $p^\infty$-Selmer group. Coates and Sujatha discovered that the structure of the fine Selmer group of $E$ over certain $p$-adic Lie…
We prove that the dual fine Selmer group of an abelian variety over the unramified $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extension of a function field is finitely generated over $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$. This is a function field version of a 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,…
Fix two distinct primes $p$ and $\ell$. Let $A$ be an abelian variety over $\mathbf{Q}(\zeta_{\ell})$, the cyclotomic field of $\ell$-th roots of unity. Suppose that $A(\mathbf{Q}(\zeta_{\ell}))[\ell] \neq 0$. We show that there exists a…
In this paper, we study the fine Selmer groups of two congruent Galois representations over an admissible $p$-adic Lie extension. We show that under appropriate congruence conditions, if the dual fine Selmer group of one is pseudo-null, so…
Motivated by the work of Greenberg-Vatsal and Emerton-Pollack-Weston, I investigate the extent to which Mazur's conjecture on the growth of Selmer ranks in $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of an imaginary quadratic field persists under…
Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve, $p$ a prime and $K_{\infty}/K$ the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of a quadratic imaginary field $K$ satisfying the Heegner hypothesis. In this paper we make a conjecture about the fine…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $F$ with supersingular reduction at all primes of $F$ above $p$. We establish an equivalence between the weak Leopoldt conjecture and the expected value of the corank of the…
There is a known analogy between growth questions for class groups and for Selmer groups. If $p$ is a prime, then the $p$-torsion of the ideal class group grows unboundedly in $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$-extensions of a fixed number field $K$,…
The $p^\infty$-fine Selmer group of an elliptic curve $E$ over a number field $F$ is a subgroup of the classical $p^\infty$-Selmer group of $E$ over $F$. Fine Selmer group is closely related to the 1st and 2nd Iwasawa cohomology groups.…
Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $F$ with good reduction at primes above $p$. In this survey article, we give an overview of some of the important results proven for the fine Selmer group…

Let $K_\infty/K$ be a uniform $p$-adic Lie extension. We compare several arithmetic invariants of Iwasawa modules of ideal class groups on the one side and fine Selmer groups of abelian varieties on the other side. If $K_\infty$ contains…
In this article we study the algebraic structure of fine Mordell--Weil groups, plus/minus Mordell--Weil groups, Selmer groups, and plus/minus Selmer groups in the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of abelian number fields. As a first, we…
Let $p$ be an odd prime and $F_\infty$ be a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of a number field $F$. Given an elliptic curve $E$ over $F$, we study the structure of the fine Selmer group over $F_\infty$. It is shown that under certain conditions,…
In this paper, we study completely faithful torsion $\mathbb{Z}_p[[G]]$-modules with applications to the study of Selmer groups. Namely, if $G$ is a nonabelian group belonging to certain classes of polycyclic pro-$p$ group, we establish the…
