In this paper, we discuss a longstanding conjecture of Greenberg in the Iwasawa theory of elliptic curves. Greenberg's conjecture states that if $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with good ordinary reduction at $p$, and $E[p]$ is…
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…
We consider two natural complexes that appear in recent formulations of equivariant Iwasawa main conjectures for extensions of not necessarily totally real fields. We show that both complexes are isomorphic in the derived category of…
We prove a slight generalization of Iwasawa's `Riemann-Hurwitz' formula for number fields and use it to generalize Ferrero's and Kida's well-known computations of Iwasawa \lambda-invariants for the cyclotomic Z_2-extensions of imaginary…
For a weight two modular form and a good prime $p$, we construct a vector of Iwasawa functions $(L_p^\sharp,L_p^\flat)$. In the elliptic curve case, we use this vector to put the $p$-adic analogues of the conjectures of Birch and…
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 discuss three different formulations of the equivariant Iwasawa main conjecture attached to an extension K/k of totally real fields with Galois group G, where k is a number field and G is a p-adic Lie group of dimension 1 for an odd…
We describe a conjectural construction (in the spirit of Hilbert's 12th problem) of units in abelian extensions of certain base fields which are neither totally real nor CM. These base fields are quadratic extensions with exactly one…
A result due to R. Greenberg gives a relation between the cardinality of Selmer groups of elliptic curves over number fields and the characteristic power series of Pontryagin duals of Selmer groups over cyclotomic $\mathbb Z_p$-extensions…
Following the natural instinct that when a group operates on a number field then every term in the class number formula should factorize `compatibly' according to the representation theory (both complex and modular) of the group, we are led…
A famous conjecture bearing the name of Vandiver states that $p \nmid h_p^+$ in the $p$ - cyclotomic extension of $\Q$. Heuristics arguments of Washington, which have been briefly exposed in Lang (1978), p. 261 and Washington (1996), p. 158…
Let p\in\{2,3\}, and let k be an imaginary quadratic field in which p decomposes into two distinct primes \mathfrak{p} and \bar{\mathfrak{p}}. Let k_\infty be the unique Z_p-extension of k which is unramified outside of \mathfrak{p}, and…
Let p be an odd prime. We give an unconditional proof of the equivariant Iwasawa main conjecture for totally real fields for an infinite class of one-dimensional non-abelian p-adic Lie extensions. Crucially, this result does not depend on…
Let $\ell$ and $p$ be distinct primes, and let $\G$ be an abelian pro-$p$-group. We study the structure of the algebra $\L:=\Z_\ell[[\G]]$ and of $\L$-modules. The algebra $\L$ turns out to be a direct product of copies of ring of integers…
We produce generalizations of Iwasawa's `Riemann-Hurwitz' formula for number fields. These generalizations apply to cyclic extensions of number fields of degree p^n for any positive integer n. We first deduce some congruences and…
Iwasawa's classical asymptotical formula relates the orders of the $p$-parts $X_n$ of the ideal class groups along a $\ZM_p$-extension $F_\infty/F$ of a number field $F$, to Iwasawa structural invariants $\la$ and $\mu$ attached to the…

In this paper we give a short, elementary proof of the following too extreme cases of the Leopoldt conjecture: the case when $\K/\Q$ is a solvable extension and the case when it is a totally real extension in which $p$ splits completely.…
We prove an Equivariant Main Conjecture in Iwasawa Theory along any rank one, sign-normalized Drinfeld modular, split at infinity Iwasawa tower of a general function field of characteristic p, for the Iwasawa modules recently considered by…
Using the recent proof of the polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture over $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ by Gowers, Green, Manners, and Tao, we prove a version of the polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture over function fields. In particular, we prove that if…
