For a number field $F$ and an odd prime number $p,$ let $\tilde{F}$ be the compositum of all $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of $F$ and $\tildeΛ$ the associated Iwasawa algebra. Let $G_{S}(\tilde{F})$ be the Galois group over $\tilde{F}$ of the maximal extension which is unramified outside $p$-adic and infinite places. In this paper we study the $\tildeΛ$-module $\mathfrak{X}_{S}^{(-i)}(\tilde{F}):=H_1(G_S(\tilde{F}), \mathbb{Z}_p(-i))$ and its relationship with $X(\tilde{F}(μ_p))(i-1)^Δ,$ the $Δ:=\mathrm{Gal}(\tilde{F}(μ_{p})/\tilde{F})$-invariant of the Galois group over $\tilde{F}(μ_{p})$ of the maximal abelian unramified pro-$p$-extension of $\tilde{F}(μ_{p}).$ More precisely, we show that under a decomposition condition, the pseudo-nullity of the $\tildeΛ$-module $X(\tilde{F}(μ_p))(i-1)^Δ$ is implied by the existence of a $\mathbb{Z}_{p}^d$-extension $L$ with $\mathfrak{X}_{S}^{(-i)}(L):=H_1(G_S(L), \mathbb{Z}_p(-i))$ being without torsion over the Iwasawa algebra associated to $L,$ and which contains a $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extension $F_{\infty}$ satisfying $H^2(G_{S}(F_{\infty}),\mathbb{Q}_{p}/\mathbb{Z}_p(i))=0.$ As a consequence we obtain a sufficient condition for the validity of Greenberg's generalized conjecture when the integer $i\equiv 1 \mod{[F(μ_p):F]}.$ This existence is fulfilled for $(p, i)$-regular fields.
We describe Greenberg's pseudo-null conjecture, and prove a result describing conditions under which the pseudo-null conjecture for a number field $K$ implies the conjecture for finite extensions of $K$. We then apply the result to the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-tower above a cyclotomic field of prime roots of unity, verifying the conjecture for a large class of cyclotomic fields.
Let $K/ \mathbb{Q}$ be an imaginary $S_3$-extension, and $p$ a prime number which splits into exactly three primes in $K$. We give a sufficient condition for the validity of Greenberg's generalized conjecture for $K$ and $p$.
We investigate the group of universal norms attached to the cyclotomic Z {\ell}-tower of a totally real number field in connection with Grenberg's conjecture on Iwasawa invariants of such a field.
In this paper we prove Greenberg's pseudo-null conjecture for the field of p-th roots of unity in the case that p exactly divides the class number and the index of the global units in the local units. We also generalize to the case of multiple Z_p-extensions a theorem of Iwasawa on the Kummer extension of the cyclotomic Z_p-extension generated by p-power roots of units .
In this paper we make a series of numerical experiments to support Greenberg's $p$-rationality conjecture, we present a family of $p$-rational biquadratic fields and we find new examples of $p$-rational multiquadratic fields. In the case of multiquadratic and multicubic fields we show that the conjecture is a consequence of the Cohen-Lenstra-Martinet heuristic and of the conjecture of Hofmann and Zhang on the $p$-adic regulator, and we bring new numerical data to support the extensions of these conjectures. We compare the known algorithmic tools and propose some improvements.
For an algebraic number field $K$ and a prime number $p$, let $\widetilde{K}/K$ be the maximal multiple $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension. Greenberg's generalized conjecture (GGC) predicts that the Galois group of the maximal unramified abelian pro-$p$ extension of $\widetilde{K}$ is pseudo-null over the completed group ring $\mathbb{Z}_p[\![\mathop{\mathrm{Gal}}\nolimits(\widetilde{K}/K)]\!]$. We show that GGC holds for some imaginary quartic fields containing imaginary quadratic fields and some prime numbers.
We use logarithmic {\ell}-class groups to take a new view on Greenberg's conjecture about Iwasawa {\ell}-invariants of a totally real number field K. By the way we recall and complete some classical results. Under Leopoldt's conjecture, we prove that Greenberg's conjecture holds if and only if the logarithmic classes of K principalize in the cyclotomic Z{\ell}-extensions of K. As an illustration of our approach, in the special case where the prime {\ell} splits completely in K, we prove that the sufficient condition introduced by Gras just asserts the triviality of the logarithmic class group …
For a prime number $p$ and a number field $k$, let $\tilde{k}$ be the compositum of all $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of $k$. Greenberg's Generalized Conjecture (GGC) claims the pseudo-nullity of the unramified Iwasawa module $X(\tilde{k})$ of $\tilde{k}$. It is known that, when $k$ is an imaginary quadratic field, GGC has a consequence on the Iwasawa invariants associated to $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of $k$. In this paper, we partially generalize it to arbitrary number fields $k$.
Let $\mathcal{A}_n$ be the $2$-part of the ideal class group of the $n$-th layer of the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension of a real quadratic number field $F$. The cardinality of $\mathcal{A}_n$ is related to the index of cyclotomic units in the full group of units. We present a method to study the latter index. As an application we show that the sequence of the $\mathcal{A}_n$'s stabilizes for the real fields $F=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{f})$ for any integer $0<f<10000$. Equivalently Greenberg's conjecture holds for those fields.
Let $p$ be an odd prime number and $k$ an imaginary quadratic field in which $p$ splits. In this paper, we consider a weak form of Greenberg's generalized conjecture for $p$ and $k$, which states that the non-trivial Iwasawa module of the maximal multiple $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension field over $k$ has a non-trivial pseudo-null submodule. We prove this conjecture for $p$ and $k$ under the assumption that the Iwasawa $λ$-invariant for a certain $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension over a finite abelian extension of $k$ vanishes and that the characteristic ideal of the Iwasawa module associated to the cyclotomi…
We formulate a general conjecture on the characteristic polynomials of S-decomposed T-ramified Iwasawa modules over the cyclotomic Z {\ell}-extension of a number field. We show that this conjecture is equivalent to the conjunctions of the classical conjectures of Leopoldt and of Gross-Kuz'min. We so extend a result of semi-simplicity of Greenberg and, by the way, an isomorphism of Kuz'min.
In this paper we prove one side divisibility of the Iwasawa-Greenberg main conjecture for Rankin-Selberg product of a weight two cusp form and an ordinary CM form of higher weight, using congruences between Klingen Eisenstein series and cusp forms on $\mathrm{GU}(3,1)$, generalizing earlier result of the third-named author to allow non-ordinary cusp forms. The main result is a key input in the third author's proof for Kobayashi's $\pm$-main conjecture for supersingular elliptic curves. The new ingredient here is developing a semi-ordinary Hida theory along an appropriate smaller weight space, …
Let $k$ be a totally real number field and $p$ a prime. We show that the ``complexity'' of Greenberg's conjecture ($λ= μ= 0$) is of $p$-adic nature governed (under Leopoldt's conjecture) by the finite torsion group ${\mathcal T}_k$ of the Galois group of the maximal abelian $p$-ramified pro-$p$-extension of $k$, by means of images in ${\mathcal T}_k$ of ideal norms from the layers $k_n$ of the cyclotomic tower (Theorem (5.2)). These images are obtained via the formal algorithm computing, by ``unscrewing'', the $p$-class group of~$k_n$. Conjecture (5.4) of equidistribution of these images would…

Pre-print of a publication in "Annales mathématiques du Qu{é}bec". Let $k$ be a totally real number field and let $k_\infty$ be its cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension for $p$ totally split in $k$. This text completes our article entitled: "Approche $p$-adique de la conjecture de Greenberg pour les corps totalement réels" (Annales Mathématiques Blaise Pascal 2017), by means of heuristics on the $p$-adic behavior of the norms, in $k_n/k$, of the ideals in $k_\infty$ ; indeed, this conjecture (on the nullity of the invariants $λ$ et $μ$ of Iwasawa) depends of images in the torsion group ${\mathc…
Let k be a totally real number field ant let k$\infty$ be its cyclotomic Zp-extension for a prime p\textgreater{}2. We give (Theorem 3.2) a sufficient condition of nullity of the Iwasawa invariants lambda, mu, when p totally splits in k, and we obtain important tables of quadratic fields and p for which we can conclude that lambda = mu=0.We show that the number of ambiguous p-classes of kn (nth stage in k$\infty$) is equal to the order of the torsion group T, of the Galois group of the maximal Abelian p-ramified pro-p-extension of k (Theorem 4.2), for all n \textgreater{}\textgreater{} e, wher…
We show that the cyclotomic Iwasawa--Greenberg Main Conjecture holds for a large class of modular forms with multiplicative reduction at $p$, extending previous results for the good ordinary case. In fact, the multiplicative case is deduced from the good case through the use of Hida families and a simple Fitting ideal argument.
In this paper we construct a two variables $p$-adic $L$-function for the standard representation associated with a Hida family of parallel weight genus $g$ Siegel forms, using a method previously developed by Böcherer--Schmidt in one variable. When a form of weight $g+1$ is Steinberg at $p$, a trivial zero appears and, using the method of Greenberg--Stevens, we calculate the first derivative of this $p$-adic $L$-function and show that it has the form predicted by a conjecture of Greenberg on trivial zeros.
We formulate and for the most part prove a conjecture in the style of Mazur-Greenberg for the nonvanishing of central values of Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions attached to elliptic curves in abelian extensions of imaginary quadratic fields. This in particular generalizes the theorem of Rohrlich on $L$-functions of elliptic curves in cyclotomic towers to the setting of abelian extensions of imaginary quadratic fields, corresponding to families of degree-four $L$-functions given by $\operatorname{GL}(2)\times\operatorname{GL}(2)$ Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions. It also generalizes the theorems of Roh…
We prove, assuming Greenberg's conjecture, that the ordinary eigencurve is Gorenstein at an intersection point between the Eisenstein family and the cuspidal locus. As a corollary, we obtain new results on Sharifi's conjecture. This result is achieved by constructing a universal ordinary pseudodeformation ring and proving an $R = \mathbb T$ result.
Let $A' = \varprojlim_n$ be the projective limit of the $p$-parts of the ideal class groups of the $p$ integers in the $\Z_p$-cyclotomic extension $\K_{\infty}/\K$ of a CM number field $\K$. We prove in this paper that the $T$ part $(A')^-(T) = 0$. This fact has been explicitly conjecture by Kuz'min in 1972 and was proved by Greenberg in 1973, for abelian extensions $\K/\Q$. Federer and Gross had shown in 1981 that $(A')^-(T) = 0$ is equivalent to the non-vanishing of the $p$-adic regulator of the $p$-units of $\K$.
In the previous paper we generalized Greenberg's construction of the $\Cal L$-invariant to semistable representations. Here we prove that this construction is compatible with Perrin-Riou's theory of $p$-adic $L$-functions
Let $E/\mathbf{Q}$ be an elliptic curve of conductor $N$, let $p>3$ be a prime where $E$ has good ordinary reduction, and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field satisfying the Heegner hypothesis. In 1987, Perrin-Riou formulated an Iwasawa main conjecture for the Tate-Shafarevich group of $E$ over the anticyclotomic $\mathbf{Z}_p$-extension of $K$ in terms of Heegner points. In this paper, we give a proof of Perrin-Riou's conjecture under mild hypotheses. Our proof builds on Howard's theory of bipartite Euler systems and Wei Zhang's work on Kolyvagin's conjecture. In the case when $p$ splits i…
Let p be an odd prime and F a totally real number field. Let f be a Hilbert cuspidal eigenform of parallel weight 2, trivial Nebentypus and ordinary at p. It is possible to construct a p-adic L-function which interpolates the complex L-function associated to the symmetric square representation of f. This p-adic L-function vanishes at s=1 even if the complex L-function does not. Assuming p inert and f Steinberg at p, we give a formula for the p-adic derivative at s=1 of this p-adic L-function, generalizing unpublished work of Greenberg and Tilouine. Under some hypotheses on the conductor of f w…
Let $p$ be an odd prime, $F/{\Bbb Q}$ an abelian totally real number field, $F_\infty/F$ its cyclotomic ${\Bbb Z}_p$-extension, $G_\infty = Gal (F_\infty / {\Bbb Q}),$ ${\Bbb A} = {\Bbb Z}_p [[G_\infty]].$ We give an explicit description of the equivariant characteristic ideal of $H^2_{Iw} (F_\infty, {\Bbb Z}_p(m))$ over ${\Bbb A}$ for all odd $m \in {\Bbb Z}$ by applying M. Witte's formulation of an equivariant main conjecture (or "limit theorem") due to Burns and Greither. This could shed some light on Greenberg's conjecture on the vanishing of the $λ$-invariant of $F_\infty/F.$
For a real abelian field and for an odd prime p splitting in the field, we study a map between the p-parts of the class group and of the quotient of units modulo Cyclotomic Units, respectively, along the cyclotomic Z_p-extension of the field. We determine the kernel and the cokernel of this map assuming Greenberg's conjecture on the vanishing of the lambda-invariant of the extension.
Let $p$ be an odd prime. We prove the cyclotomic Iwasawa Main Conjecture of K.Kato for the motive attached to an eigencuspform $f\in S_{k}(Γ_{0}(N))$ with arbitrary reduction type at $p$ under mild assumptions on the residual Galois representation $\barρ_{f}$. Under the same hypotheses, we also prove the generalized Iwasawa Main Conjecture for $p$-adic families of modular forms. The Iwasawa Main Conjecture for $f$ is deduced by a limit argument involving fundamental lines from a universal Iwasawa Main Conjecture over the universal deformation space of $\barρ_{f}$, which itself follows from the…

We formulate a multi-variable p-adic Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for p-ordinary elliptic curves A over number fields K. It generalises the one-variable conjecture of Mazur-Tate-Teitelbaum, who studied the case K=Q and the phenomenon of exceptional zeros. We discuss old and new theoretical evidence towards our conjecture and in particular we fully prove it, under mild conditions, in the following situation: K is imaginary quadratic, A=E_K is the base-change to K of an elliptic curve over the rationals, and the rank of A is either 0 or 1. The proof is naturally divided into a few cases.…
The Langlands Programme predicts that a weight 2 newform f over a number field K with integer Hecke eigenvalues generally should have an associated elliptic curve E_f over K. In our previous paper, we associated, building on works of Darmon and Greenberg, a p-adic lattice to f, under certain hypothesis, and implicitly conjectured that this lattice is commensurable with the p-adic Tate lattice of E_f . In this paper, we present this conjecture in detail and discuss how it can be used to compute, directly from f, an explicit Weierstrass equation for the conjectural E_f . We develop algorithms to…
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 suggest that the Vandiver conjecture should be false if certain conditions of statistical independence are fulfilled. In this note, we assume that Greenberg's conjecture is true for the \nth{p} cyclotomic extensions and prove an elementary consequence of the assumption that Vandiver's conjecture fails for a certain value of $p$: the result indicates that th…
In a recent paper, Rose proves that certain generalized sum-of-divisor functions are quasi-modular forms for some congruence subgroup and conjectures that these forms are quasi-modular for $Γ_1(n)$. Here, we prove this conjecture.
To extend Iwasawa's classical theorem from ${\mathbb Z}_p$-towers to ${\mathbb Z}_p^d$-towers, Greenberg conjectured that the exponent of $p$ in the $n$-th class number in a ${\mathbb Z}_p^d$-tower of a global field $K$ ramified at finitely many primes is given by a polynomial in $p^n$ and $n$ of total degree at most $d$ for sufficiently large $n$. This conjecture remains open for $d\geq 2$. In this paper, we prove that this conjecture is true in the function field case. Further, we propose a series of general conjectures on $p$-adic stability of zeta functions in a $p$-adic Lie tower of funct…
