Let p be an odd prime. Suppose that E is a modular elliptic curve/Q with good ordinary reduction at p. Let Q_{oo} denote the cyclotomic Z_p-extension of Q. It is conjectured that Sel_E(Q_{oo}) is a cotorsion Lambda-module and that its…
We investigate Selmer groups of Jacobians of curves that admit an action of a non-trivial group of automorphisms, and give applications to the study of the parity of Selmer ranks. Under the Shafarevich--Tate conjecture, we give an…
Let A be an abelian variety over a number field K. An identity between the L-functions L(A/K_i,s) for extensions K_i of K induces a conjectural relation between the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer quotients. We prove these relations modulo finiteness…
Let $p$ be an irregular prime. Let $K=\Q(\zeta)$ be the $p$-cyclotomic field. From Kummer and class field theory, there exist Galois extensions $S/\Q$ of degree $p(p-1)$ such that $S/K$ is a cyclic unramified extension of degree $[S:K]=p$.…
The p-parity conjecture for twists of elliptic curves relates multiplicities of Artin representations in p-infinity Selmer groups to root numbers. In this paper we prove this conjecture for a class of such twists. For example, if E/Q is…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number. We study growth patterns associated with finitely ramified Galois groups considered over the various number fields varying in a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-tower. These Galois groups can be considered as non-commutative…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field where $p$ splits. We study signed Selmer groups for non-ordinary modular forms over the anticyclotomic $\mathbf{Z}_p$-extension of $K$, showing that their $\mu$-invariants vanish. This generalizes and…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number and $k$ an imaginary quadratic field in which $p$ does not split. Based on their heuristic, Kundu and Washington posed a question which asks whether $\lambda$- and $\mu$-invariant of the anti-cyclotomic ${\Bbb…
Building on ideas of Vatsal, Cornut proved a conjecture of Mazur asserting the generic nonvanishing of Heegner points on an elliptic curve E as one ascends the anticyclotomic Z_p-extension of a quadratic imaginary extension K/Q. In the…
For a non-zero algebraic number $\alpha$ of degree $d$, let $h(\alpha)$ denote its logarithmic Weil height. It is known that when $h(\alpha)$ is small, and $d$ is large, the conjugates of $\alpha$ are clustered near the unit circle and have…
Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of characteristic different from 2 and residual characteristic $p$. This paper concerns the $\ell$-modular representations of a connected reductive group $G$ distinguished by a Galois involution,…
We construct motivic cohomology classes attached to Rankin--Selberg convolutions of modular forms of weights $\ge 2$, show that these vary analytically in p-adic families, and relate their image under the p-adic regulator map to values of…
Let G be a semisimple Lie group with associated symmetric space D, and let Gamma subset G be a cocompact arithmetic group. Let L be a lattice inside a Z Gamma-module arising from a rational finite-dimensional complex representation of G.…
Let $p\ge 5$ be a prime number, $E/\mathbb{Q}$ an elliptic curve with good supersingular reduction at $p$ and $K$ an imaginary quadratic field such that the root number of $E$ over $K$ is $+1$. When $p$ is split in $K$, Darmon and Iovita…

The Iwasawa $\mu$-invariant of the Selmer group of a residually reducible Galois representation arising from a Hecke eigencuspform is studied. Furthermore, certain Iwasawa-invariants refining the $\mu$-invariant are defined and analyzed. As…

A well-known conjecture of Gross and Zagier states that the values of the higher automorphic Green's function at pairs of points with complex multiplication in the upper half-plane are proportional to the logarithm of an algebraic number.…
