In this paper, we formulate and prove the so-called $p$-adic non-commutative analytic subgroup theorem. This result is seen as the $p$-adic analogue of a recent theorem given by Yafaev.
We prove a unicity result for the $L$-functions appearing in the non-commutative Iwasawa main conjecture over totally real fields. We then consider continuous representations $ρ$ of the absolute Galois group of a totally real field $F$ on adic rings in the sense of Fukaya and Kato. Using our unicity result, we show that there exists a unique sensible definition of a non-commutative $L$-function for any such $ρ$ that factors through the Galois group of a possibly infinite totally real extension. We also consider the case of CM-extensions and discuss the relation with the equivariant main conjec…
We prove a p-adic analogue of Wüstholz's analytic subgroup theorem. We apply this result to show that a curve embedded in its Jacobian intersects the p-adic closure of the Mordell-Weil group transversely whenever the latter has rank equal to 1. This allows us to give some theoretical justification to Chabauty techniques applied to finding rational points on curves whose Jacobian has Mordel-Weil group of rank 1.
In 2007, B. Poonen (unpublished) studied the $p$--adic closure of a subgroup of rational points on a commutative algebraic group. More recently, J. Bellaïche asked the same question for the special case of Abelian varieties. These problems are $p$--adic analogues of a question raised earlier by B. Mazur on the density of rational points for the real topology. For a simple Abelian variety over the field of rational numbers, we show that the actual $p$--adic rank is at least the third of the expected value.
Let E/Q be an elliptic curve with good supersingular reduction at p with a_p(E)=0. We give a conjecture on the existence of analytic plus and minus p-adic L-functions of E over the Zp-cyclotomic extension of a finite Galois extension of Q where p is unramified. Under some technical conditions, we adopt the method of Bouganis and Venjakob for p-ordinary CM elliptic curves to construct such functions for a particular non-abelian extension.
We use a $p$-adic analogue of the analytic subgroup theorem of Wüstholz to deduce the transcendence and linear independence of some new classes of $p$-adic numbers. In particular we give $p$-adic analogues of results of Wüstholz contained in [G. Wüstholz, Some remarks on a conjecture of Waldschmidt, Diophantine approximations and transcendental numbers, Progress in Mathematics 31, Birkhäuser Boston, Boston, MA, (1983), 329-336] and generalizations of results obtained by Bertrand in [D. Bertrand, Sous-groupes à un paramètre $p$-adique de variétés de groupe, Invent. Math. 40 (1977), no. 2, 171-1…
It is well-known that the Wüstholz' analytic subgroup theorem is one of the most powerful theorems in transcendence theory. The theorem gives in a very systematic and conceptual way the transcendence of a large class of complex numbers, e.g. the transcendence of $π$ which is originally due to Lindemann. In this paper we revisit the $p$-adic analogue of the analytic subgroup theorem and present a proof based on the method described and developed by the authors in a recent related paper.
In this paper we prove that the motivic Eisenstein classes associated to polylogarithms of commutative group schemes can be $p$-adically interpolated in étale cohomology. This generalizes results for elliptic curves obtained in our former work. Already for one dimensional commutative groups the results proved here are much more flexible as they allow to treat degeneration questions easily.
The goal of this paper is to illustrate different approaches to understand Euler characteristics in the setting of totally real commutative and non-commutative Iwasawa theory. In addition to this, and in the spirit of Hesselholt and Mitchell, we show how these objects interact with homotopy theoretic invariants such as ($K(1)$-local) $K$-theory and Topological Cyclic homology.
We construct the p-adic zeta function for a one-dimensional (as a p-adic Lie extension) non-commutative p-extension of a totally real number field such that the finite part of its Galois group is a pgroup with exponent p. We first calculate the Whitehead groups of the Iwasawa algebra and its canonical Ore localisation by using Oliver-Taylor's theory upon integral logarithms. This calculation reduces the existence of the non-commutative p-adic zeta function to certain congruence conditions among abelian p-adic zeta pseudomeasures. Then we finally verify these congruences by using Deligne-Ribet'…
Let $G$ be a commutative algebraic group defined over a number field $K$ that is disjoint over $K$ to $\mathbb G_a$ and satisfies the condition of semistability. Consider a linear form $l$ on the Lie algebra of $G$ with algebraic coefficients and an algebraic point $u$ in a $p$-adic neighbourhood of the origin with the condition that $l$ does not vanish at $u$. We give a lower bound for the $p$-adic absolute value of $l(u)$ which depends up to an effectively computable constant only on the height of the linear form, the height of the point $u$ and $p$.
In this short note we partially answer a question of Fukaya and Kato by constructing a $q$-expansion with coefficients in a non-commutative Iwasawa algebra whose constant term is a non-commutative p-adic zeta function.
How to find "best rational approximations" of maximal commutative subgroups of GL(n,R)? In this paper we pose and make first steps in the study of this problem. It contains both classical problems of Diophantine and simultaneous approximations as a particular subcases but in general is much wider. We prove estimates for n=2 for both totaly real and complex cases and write the algorithm to construct best approximations of a fixed size. In addition we introduce a relation between best approximations and sails of cones and interpret the result for totally real subgroups in geometric terms of sail…
We prove three theorems concerning the Hopf-Galois module structure of fractional ideals in a finite tamely ramified extension of $ p $-adic fields or number fields which is $ H $-Galois for a commutative Hopf algebra $ H $. Firstly, we show that if $ L/K $ is a tame Galois extension of $ p $-adic fields then each fractional ideal of $ L $ is free over its associated order in $ H $. We also show that this conclusion remains valid if $ L/K $ is merely almost classically Galois. Finally, we show that if $ L/K $ is an abelian extension of number fields then every ambiguous fractional ideal of $ L…
We establish the Iwasawa main conjecture for semi-stable abelian varieties over a function field of characteristic $p$ under certain restrictive assumptions. Namely we consider $p$-torsion free $p$-adic Lie extensions of the base field which contain the constant $\mathbb Z_p$-extension and are everywhere unramified. Under the classical $μ=0$ hypothesis we give a proof which mainly relies on the interpretation of the Selmer complex in terms of $p$-adic cohomology [TV] together with the trace formulas of [EL1].
In arXiv:math/0404297 a non-commutative Iwasawa Main Conjecture for elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ has been formulated. In this note we show that it holds for all CM-elliptic curves $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. This was claimed in (loc.\ cit.) without proof, which we want to provide now assuming that the torsion conjecture holds in this case. Based on this we show firstly the existence of the (non-commutative) $p$-adic $L$-function of $E$ and secondly that the (non-commutative) Main Conjecture follows from the existence of the Katz-measure, the work of Yager and Rubin's proof of the 2-var…
It is well known that, for any finitely generated torsion module M over the Iwasawa algebra Z_p [[Γ ]], where Γ is isomorphic to Z_p, there exists a continuous p-adic character ρ of Γ such that, for every open subgroup U of Γ, the group of U-coinvariants M(ρ)_U is finite; here M( ρ) denotes the twist of M by ρ. This twisting lemma was already applied to study various arithmetic properties of Selmer groups and Galois cohomologies over a cyclotomic tower by Greenberg and Perrin-Riou. We prove a non commutative generalization of this twisting lemma replacing torsion modules over Z_p [[ Γ ]] by ce…
For a curve $X$ over a $p$-adic field $k$, using the class field theory of $X$ due to S. Bloch and S. Saito we study the abelian geometric fundamental group $π_1^{\mathrm{ab}}(X)^{\mathrm{geo}}$ of $X$. In particular, it is investigated a subgroup of $π_1^{\mathrm{ab}}(X)^{\mathrm{geo}}$ which classifies the geometric and abelian coverings of $X$ which allow possible ramification over the special fiber of the model of $X$. Under the assumptions that $X$ has a $k$-rational point, $X$ has good reduction and its Jacobian variety has good ordinary reduction, we give some upper and lower bounds of …
Without using the $p$-adic Langlands correspondence, we prove that for many finite length smooth representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbf{Q}_p)$ on $p$-torsion modules the $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbf{Q}_p)$-linear morphisms coincide with the morphisms that are linear for the normalizer of a parahoric subgroup. We identify this subgroup to be the Iwahori subgroup in the supersingular case, and $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbf{Z}_p)$ in the principal series case. As an application, we relate the action of parahoric subgroups to the action of the inertia group of $\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{\mathbf{Q}}_p/\mathbf{Q…
Iwasawa algebras of compact $p$-adic Lie groups are completed group algebras with applications in number theory in studying class numbers of towers of number fields and representation theory of $p$-adic Lie groups. In our earlier work, we determined an explicit presentation of the Iwasawa algebra for the first principal congruence kernel of Chevalley groups over $\mathbb{Z}_p$. In this paper, for prime $p>n+1$, we extend our result to determine the explicit presentation, in the form of generators and relations, of the Iwasawa algebra of the pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup of $GL_n(\mathbb{Z}_p)$.
We study the behaviour of ordinary parts of the homology modules of modular curves, associated to a decreasing sequence of congruence subgroups $Γ_1(N2^r)$ for $r \geq 2$, and prove a control theorem for these homology modules.
In this article I generalise previous computations (by K. Kato, T. Hara and myself) of K_1 (only up to p-power torsion) of p-adic group rings of finite non-abelian p-groups in terms of p-adic group rings of abelian subquotients of the group. Such computation have applications in non-commutative Iwasawa theory due to a strategy proposed by D. Burns, K. Kato (and a modification by T. Hara) for deducing non-commutative main conjectures from commutative main conjectures and certain congruences between special L-values. However, I do not say anything about Iwasawa theory in this article. The detail…
We develop a theory of `non-abelian higher special elements' in the non-commutative exterior powers of the Galois cohomology of $p$-adic representations. We explore their relation to the theory of organising matrices and thus to the Galois module structure of Selmer modules. In concrete applications, we relate our general theory to the formulation of refined conjectures of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer type and to the Galois structure of Tate-Shafarevich and Selmer groups of abelian varieties.
It is well known that given a finitely generated torsion module $M$ over the Iwasawa algebra $\mathbb Z_p[[Γ]]$, where $Γ\cong \mathbb Z_p$, there exists a continuous $p$-adic character $ρ$ of $Γ$ such that, for the twist $M(ρ)$ of $M$, the $Γ_n := Γ^{p^n}$ Euler characteristic, i.e. $χ(Γ_n, M(ρ))$, is finite for every $n$. We prove a generalization of this result by considering modules over the Iwasawa algebra of a general $p$-adic Lie group $G$, instead of $Γ$. We relate this twisted Euler characteristic to the evaluation of the {\it Akashi series} at the twist and in turn use it to indicate…
The aim of the present paper is to give evidence, largely numerical, in support of the non-commutative main conjecture of Iwasawa theory for the motive of a primitive modular form of weight k>2 over the Galois extension of Q obtained by adjoining to Q all p-power roots of unity, and all p-power roots of a fixed integer m>1. The predictions of the main conjecture are rather intricate in this case because there is more than one critical point, and also there is no canonical choice of periods. Nevertheless, our numerical data agrees perfectly with all aspects of the main conjecture, including Kat…
Let F be a p-adic field and let G(n) and G`(n) be the metaplectic double covers of the general symplectic group and symplectic group attached to a 2n dimensional symplectic space over F. We show here that if n is odd then all the genuine irreducible representations of G(n) are induced from a normal subgroup of finite index closely related to G`(n). Thus, we reduce, in this case, the theory of genuine admissible representations of G(n) to the better understood corresponding theory of G`(n). For odd n we also prove the uniqueness of certain Whittaker functionals along with Rodier type of Heredit…
We prove the transfer congruence between $p$-adic Hecke $L$-functions for CM fields over cyclotomic extensions, which is a non-abelian generalization of the Kummer's congruence. The ingredients of the proof include the comparison between Hilbert modular varieties, the $q$-expansion principle, and some modification of Hsieh's Whittaker model for Katz' Eisenstein series. As a first application, we prove explicit congruence between special values of Hasse-Weil $L$-function of a CM elliptic curve twisted by Artin representations. As a second application, we prove the existence of a non-commutative…

Gelfand's trick shows that the spherical Hecke algebra of a $p$-adic split reductive group is commutative. We adapt this strategy in order to show that the spherical derived Hecke algebra is graded-commutative under mild assumptions on the coefficient ring.
In this work we prove the so-called "torsion congruences" between abelian $p$-adic $L$-functions that are related to automorphic representations of definite unitary groups. These congruences play a central role in the non-commutative Iwasawa theory as it became clear in the works of Kakde, Ritter and Weiss on the non-abelian Main Conjecture for the Tate motive. We tackle these congruences for a general definite unitary group of $n$ variables and we obtain more explicit results in the special cases of $n=1$ and $n=2$. In both of these cases we also explain their implications for some particular…
We consider the rigid monoidal category of character sheaves on a smooth commutative group scheme $G$ over a finite field $k$ and expand the scope of the function-sheaf dictionary from connected commutative algebraic groups to this setting. We find the group of isomorphism classes of character sheaves on $G$ and show that it is an extension of the group of characters of $G(k)$ by a cohomology group determined by the component group scheme of $G$. We also classify all morphisms in the category character sheaves on $G$. As an application, we study character sheaves on Greenberg transforms of loc…
We investigate generalizations along the lines of the Mordell--Lang conjecture of the author's $p$-adic formal Manin--Mumford results for $n$-dimensional $p$-divisible formal groups $\mathcal{F}$. In particular, given a finitely generated subgroup $Γ$ of $\mathcal{F}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_p)$ and a closed subscheme $X\hookrightarrow \mathcal{F}$, we show under suitable assumptions that for any points $P\in X(\mathbb{C}_p)$ satisfying $nP\inΓ$ for some $n\in\mathbb{N}$, the minimal such orders $n$ are uniformly bounded whenever $X$ does not contain a formal subgroup translate of positive dimens…
We propose a definition of characters in the context of Schneider-Teitelbaum's theory of locally analytic representations of p-adic reductive groups. This character will be a function on a compact subgroup of a maximal torus of the reductive group in question. As an example we treat the locally analytic principal series of SL(2,Q_p).
Let $p$ be a prime, $D$ a finite dimensional noncommutative division $\mathbb{Q}_p$-algebra, and $SL_1(D)$ the group of elements of $D$ of reduced norm $1$. When the center of $D$ is $\mathbb{Q}_p$, we prove that no open subgroup of $SL_1(D)$ admits self-similar actions on regular rooted trees. Moreover, we prove results on $\mathbb{Z}_p$-Lie lattices that allow to deal with the case where the center of $D$ is bigger than $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and lead to the classification of the torsion-free $p$-adic analytic pro-$p$ groups $G$ of dimension less than $p$ with the property that all the nontrivial c…
Let $F$ be a local field with residue characteristic $p$, let $C$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and let $\mathbf{G}$ be a connected reductive $F$-group. In a previous paper, Florian Herzig and the authors classified irreducible admissible $C$-representations of $G=\mathbf{G}(F)$ in terms of supercuspidal representations of Levi subgroups of $G$. Here, for a parabolic subgroup $P$ of $G$ with Levi subgroup $M$ and an irreducible admissible $C$-representation $τ$ of $M$, we determine the lattice of subrepresentations of $\mathrm{Ind}_P^G τ$ and we show that $\mathrm{Ind…
Let $G$ be a commutative algebraic group embedded in projective space and $Γ$ a finitely generated subgroup of $G$. From these data we construct a chain of algebraic subgroups of $G$ which is intimately related to obstructions to multiplicity or interpolation estimates. Let $γ_1,...,γ_l$ denote a family of generators of $Γ$ and, for any $S>1$, let $Γ(S)$ be the set of elements $n_1γ_1+..+n_lγ_l$ with integers $n_j$ such that $|n_j| < S$. Then this chain of subgroups controls, for large values of $S$, the distribution of $Γ(S)$ with respect to algebraic subgroups of $G$. As an application we es…
Let $k$ be a number field, $Ω$ be a finite symmetric subset of $\mathbb{GL}_{n_0}(k)$, and $Γ=\langle Ω\rangle$. Let \[ C(Γ):=\{\mathfrak{p}\in V_f(k)|\hspace{1mm} Γ\text{is a bounded subgroup of} \mathbb{GL}_{n_0}(k_{\mathfrak{p}})\}, \] and $Γ_{\mathfrak{p}}$ be the closure of $Γ$ in $\mathbb{GL}_{n_0}(k_{\mathfrak{p}})$. Assuming that the Zariski-closure of $Γ$ is semisimple, we prove that the family of left translation actions $\{Γ\curvearrowright Γ_{\mathfrak{p}}\}_{\mathfrak{p}\in C(Γ)}$ has {\em uniform spectral gap}. As a corollary we get that the left translation action $Γ\curvearrowr…
We consider the question of unicity of types on maximal compact subgroups for supercuspidal representations of $\mathbf{SL}_2$ over a nonarchimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. We introduce the notion of an archetype as the $\mathbf{SL}_2$-conjugacy class of a typical representation of a maximal compact subgroup, and go on to show that any archetype in $\mathbf{SL}_2$ is restricted from one in $\mathbf{GL}_2$. From this it follows that any archetype must be induced from a Bushnell--Kutzko type. Given a supercuspidal representation $π$, we give an additional explicit description…
In this paper we view pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroups $I$ as rigid analytic groups $\Bbb{I}$ for large enough $p$. This is done by endowing $I$ with a natural $p$-valuation, and thereby generalizing results of Lazard for $\text{GL}_n$. We work with a general connected reductive split group over some $p$-adic field (with simply connected derived group) and study the $\Bbb{I}$-analytic vectors in principal series representations. Our main result is an irreducibility criterion which generalizes results of Clozel and Ray in the $\text{GL}_n$-case.
Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field of characteristic 0, and let $M$ be an $F$-Levi subgroup of a connected reductive $F$-split group such that $Π_{i=1}^{r} SL_{n_i} \subseteq M \subseteq Π_{i=1}^{r} GL_{n_i}$ for positive integers $r$ and $n_i$. We prove that the Plancherel measure for any unitary supercuspidal representation of $M(F)$ is identically transferred under \textit{the local Jacquet-Langlands type correspondence} between $M$ and its $F$-inner forms, assuming a working hypothesis that Plancherel measures are invariant on a certain set. This work extends the result of Mui{ć} and Savin (2000)…
Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field, let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over $F$. For a parabolic subgroup $Q\subset G$ and a ring $L$ we consider the $G$-representation on the $L$-module$$(*)\quad\quad\quad\quad C^{\infty}(G/Q,L)/\sum_{Q'\supsetneq Q}C^{\infty}(G/Q',L).$$Let $I\subset G$ denote an Iwahori subgroup. We define a certain free finite rank $L$-module ${\mathfrak M}$ (depending on $Q$; if $Q$ is a Borel subgroup then $(*)$ is the Steinberg representation and ${\mathfrak M}$ is of rank one) and construct an $I$-equivariant embedding of $(*)$ into $C^{\infty}…
