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…

We give an algebraic description of the structure of the analytic universal cover of a complex abelian variety which suffices to determine the structure up to isomorphism. More generally, we classify the models of theories of "universal…

To a finite quadratic module, that is, a finite abelian group D together with a non-singular quadratic form Q:D --> Q/Z, it is possible to associate a representation of either the modular group, SL(2,Z), or its metaplectic cover, Mp(2,Z),…

We address several seemingly disparate problems in arithmetic geometry: the statistical behaviour of the Galois module structure of Mordell--Weil groups of a fixed elliptic curve over varying quadratic extensions; the frequency of failure…

We define the fundamental group underlying to Lichtenbaum's Weil-\'etale cohomology for number rings. To this aim, we define the Weil-\'etale topos as a refinement of the Weil-\'etale sites introduced in \cite{Lichtenbaum}. We show that the…

We establish a duality result proving the `functional equation' of the characteristic ideal of the Selmer group associated to a nearly ordinary Hilbert modular form over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ extension of a totally real number…

A fundamental observation of Iwasawa gives a criterion for a module over the classical Iwasawa algebra to be torsion. In this paper, we study a certain extension of this criterion. We will then apply this to study the structure of the…

Let A be a supersingular abelian variety over a finite field k. We give an approximate description of the structure of the group A(k) of rational points of A over k in terms of the characteristic polynomial f of the Frobenius endomorphism…

We study the Fitting ideals over the finite layers of the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ of Selmer groups attached to the Rankin--Selberg convolution of two modular forms $f$ and $g$. Inspired by the Theta elements for…

Here we initiate a program to study relationships between finite groups and arithmetic-geometric invariants in a systematic way. To do this we first introduce a notion of optimal module for a finite group in the setting of holomorphic mock…

If $X$ is a variety with an additional structure $\xi$, such as a marked point, a divisor, a polarization, a group structure and so forth, then it is possible to study whether the pair $(X,\xi)$ is defined over the field of moduli. There…

Ergodic theory, Higher order Fourier analysis and the hyper graph regularity method are three possible approaches to Szemer\'edi type theorems in abelian groups. In this paper we develop an algebraic theory that creates a connection between…

In this article we present an extensive survey on the developments in the theory of non-abelian finite groups with abelian automorphism groups, and pose some problems and further research directions.

We study Witt groups of smooth curves and surfaces over algebraically closed fields of characteristic not two. In both dimensions, we determine both the classical Witt group and Balmer's shifted Witt groups. In the case of curves, the…

Let $K/F$ be a finite Galois extension of number fields with Galois group $G$, let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over $F$, and let ${\cyr W}(A_{^{/ K}})$ and ${\cyr W}(A_{^{/ F}})$ denote, respectively, the Tate-Shafarevich groups of…

The aim of this paper is two fold: First to study finite groups $G$ of automorphisms of the homogenized Weyl algebra $B_{n}$, the skew group algebra $B_{n}\ast G$, the ring of invariants $B_{n}^{G}$, and the relations of these algebras with…

Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field k and F a finite Galois extension of k. Let p be a prime number. Then under certain not-too-stringent conditions on A and F we investigate the explicit Galois structure of the…

We work out the notion of mirror symmetry for abelian varieties and study its properties. Our construction are based on the correspondence between two $Q$--algebraic groups. One is the Hodge (or special Mumford--Tate) group. The second…

We determine the structure of the semisimple group algebra of certain groups over the rationals and over those finite fields where the Wedderburn decompositions have the least number of simple components. We apply our work to obtain similar…

Given an elliptic curve E1 over a number field and an element s in its 2-Selmer group, we give two different ways to construct infinitely many Abelian surfaces A such that the homogeneous space representing s occurs as a fibre of A over…
