Indivisibility of Heegner points and arithmetic applications

Number Theory 2018-08-23 v2

Abstract

We upgrade Howard's divisibility towards Perrin-Riou's Heegner point main conjecture to the predicted equality. Contrary to previous works in this direction, our main result allows for the classical Heegner hypothesis and non-squarefree conductors. The main ingredients we exploit are W.~Zhang's proof of Kolyvagin's conjecture, Kolyvagin's structure theorem for Shafarevich--Tate groups, and the explicit reciprocity law for Heegner points.
