Abstract

Let AA be an ordinary elliptic curve over a global function field KK of characteristic pp, assumed semistable at every place, and let L/KL/K be a Zpd\mathbb{Z}_p^d-extension ramified only at finitely many places where AA has ordinary reduction. Building on the framework of [Tan26] (arXiv:2603.10576), we prove the Iwasawa Main Conjecture for AA over LL, subject to a technical μ\mu-invariant hypothesis that is already detected after specialization to the unramified Zp\mathbb{Z}_p-extension. The principal new input is a `χ\chi-formula' that compares appropriate χ\chi-isotypic characteristic ideals of Selmer modules with the corresponding specializations of the pp-adic LL-function. Finally, to show that our μ\mu-hypothesis is non-vacuous, we prove, for p>3p>3, that the hypothesis holds on a Zariski open dense locus in the moduli of semistable elliptic curves.
