Let A be an abelian variety defined over anumber field F. In this paper, we will investigate the growth of p-rank of the fine Selmer group in three situations. In particular, in each of these situations, we show that there is a strong…
It is known, that for every elliptic curve over Q there exists a quadratic extension in which the rank does not go up. For a large class of elliptic curves, the same is known with the rank replaced by the 2-Selmer group. We show, however,…
This paper was motivated by a recent paper by Krumm and Pollack investigating modulo-$p$ behaviour of quadratic twists with rational points of a given hyperelliptic curve, conditional on the abc-conjecture. We extend those results to…
We establish the Iwasawa main conjecture for semi-stable abelian varieties over a function field of characteristic $p$ under certain restrictive assumptions. Namely we consider $p$-torsion free $p$-adic Lie extensions of the base field…
In this paper, we study the Selmer groups of two congruent Galois representations over an admissible $p$-adic Lie extension. We will show that under appropriate congruence condition, if the dual Selmer group of one satisfies the…
A classical twisting lemma says that given a finitely generated torsion module $M$ over the Iwasawa algebra $\mathbb{Z}_p[[\Gamma ]]$ with $\Gamma \cong \mathbb{Z}_p, \ \exists$ a continuous character $\theta: \Gamma \rightarrow…
We study the Iwasawa theory of the fine Selmer group associated to certain Galois representations. The vanishing of the $\mu$-invariant is shown to follow in some cases from a natural property satisfied by Galois deformation rings. We…
This paper is about the Iwasawa theory of elliptic curves over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $\mathbb{Q}^{\text{cyc}}$ of $\mathbb{Q}$. We discuss a deep conjecture of Greenberg that if $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over an imaginary quadratic field $K$, and $p$ be an odd prime such that the residual representation $E[p]$ is reducible. The $\mu$-invariant of the fine Selmer group of $E$ over the anticyclotomic…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. We attach appropriate signed Selmer groups to an elliptic curve $E$, where $E$ is assumed to have semistable reduction at all primes above $p$. We then compare the Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariants of these signed Selmer…
We study the asymptotic growth of the p-primary component of the Shafarevich-Tate group in the cyclotomic direction at any odd prime of good supersingular reduction, generalizing work of Kobayashi. This explains formulas obtained by…
In this article, we give a criterion for the dual Selmer group of an elliptic curve which has either good ordinary reduction or multiplicative reduction at every prime above $p$ to satisfy the $\M_H(G)$-conjecture. As a by-product of our…
Chevalley's theorem states that every smooth connected algebraic group over a perfect field is an extension of an abelian variety by a smooth connected affine group. That fails when the base field is not perfect. We define a pseudo-abelian…
Let $k_\infty$ be the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of an algebraic number field $k$. We denote by $S$ a finite set of prime numbers which does not contain $p$, and $S(k_\infty)$ the set of primes of $k_\infty$ lying above $S$. In the…
In this article, we provide a relation between the $\mu$-invariants of the dual plus and minus Selmer groups for supersingular elliptic curves when we ascend from the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension to a $\mathbb{Z}_p^2$-extension over…

In section 2, we show a $p$-parity result in a $D_{2p^{n}}$-extension of number fields $L/K$ ($p\geq 5$) for the twist $1\oplus \eta \oplus \tau $: W(E/K,1\oplus \eta \oplus \tau)=(-1)^{< 1\oplus\eta \oplus \tau, X_{p}(E/L)>}, where $E$ is…
We study the behaviour of the Stark conjecture for an abelian extension K/k of totally real number fields as K varies in a cyclotomic Z_p-tower. We consider possible strengthenings of the natural norm-coherence in the tower of putative…
We study the Selmer group of an elliptic curve over an admissible p-adic Lie extension of a number field F . We give a formula for the Akashi series attached to this module, in terms of the corresponding objects for the cyclotomic…
Let p be an odd prime number, E an elliptic curve over a number field k, and F/k a Galois extension of degree twice a power of p. We study the Z_p-corank rk_p(E/F) of the p-power Selmer group of E over F. We obtain lower bounds for…
