Anticyclotomic Iwasawa theory of CM elliptic curves

Adebisi Agboola, Benjamin Howard (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We study the Iwasawa theory of a CM elliptic curve E in the anticyclotomic Z p -extension of the CM field, where p is a prime of good, ordinary reduction for E . When the complex L -function of E vanishes to even order, Rubin’s proof of the two variable main conjecture of Iwasawa theory implies that the Pontryagin dual of the p -power Selmer group over the anticyclotomic extension is a torsion Iwasawa module. When the order of vanishing is odd, work of Greenberg show that it is not a torsion...

Annihilators of minus class groups of imaginary abelian fields

Cornelius Greither, Radan Kučera (2007)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

For certain imaginary abelian fields we find annihilators of the minus part of the class group outside the Stickelberger ideal. Depending on the exact situation, we use different techniques to do this. Our theoretical results are complemented by numerical calculations concerning borderline cases.

Non-existence and splitting theorems for normal integral bases

Cornelius Greither, Henri Johnston (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We establish new conditions that prevent the existence of (weak) normal integral bases in tame Galois extensions of number fields. This leads to the following result: under appropriate technical hypotheses, the existence of a normal integral basis in the upper layer of an abelian tower K L forces the tower to be split in a very strong sense.

On the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for modular elliptic curves over totally real fields

Matteo Longo (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let E / F be a modular elliptic curve defined over a totally real number field F and let φ be its associated eigenform. This paper presents a new method, inspired by a recent work of Bertolini and Darmon, to control the rank of E over suitable quadratic imaginary extensions K / F . In particular, this argument can also be applied to the cases not covered by the work of Kolyvagin and Logachëv, that is, when [ F : ] is even and φ not new at any prime.

The Drinfeld Modular Jacobian J 1 ( n ) has connected fibers

Sreekar M. Shastry (2007)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We study the integral model of the Drinfeld modular curve X 1 ( n ) for a prime n 𝔽 q [ T ] . A function field analogue of the theory of Igusa curves is introduced to describe its reduction mod n . A result describing the universal deformation ring of a pair consisting of a supersingular Drinfeld module and a point of order n in terms of the Hasse invariant of that Drinfeld module is proved. We then apply Jung-Hirzebruch resolution for arithmetic surfaces to produce a regular model of X 1 ( n ) which, after contractions...
