AbstractLet K be an imaginary quadratic field and let F be an abelian extension of K. It is known that the order of the class group ClF of F is equal to the order of the quotient UF/ElF of the group of global units UF by the group of elliptic units ElF of F. We introduce a filtration on UF/ElF made from the so-called truncated Euler systems and conjecture that the associated graded module is isomorphic, as a Galois module, to the class group. We provide evidence for the conjecture using Iwasawa theory.

Let be a real quadratic field. It is well known that if 3 divides the class number of k, then 3 divides the class number of , and thus it divides B1,χω−1, where χ and ω are characters belonging to the fields k and respectively. In general, the main conjecture of Iwasawa theory implies that if an odd prime p divides the class number of k, then p divides B1,χω−1, where ω is the Teichmüller character for p.The aim of this paper is to examine its converse when p splits in k. Let k∞ be the ℤp-extension of k = k0 and hn be the class number of kn, the n th layer of the ℤp-extension. We shall prove that if p |B1,χω−1, then p | hn for all n ≥ 1. In terms of Iwasawa theory, this amounts to saying that if M∞/k∞, is nontrivial, then L∞/k∞ is nontrivial, where M∞ and L∞ are the maximal abelian p-extensions unramified outside p and unramified everywhere respectively.

AbstractThis article is a continuation of our previous work [7] on the Iwasawa theory of an elliptic modular form over an imaginary quadratic field $K$, where the modular form in question was assumed to be ordinary at a fixed odd prime $p$. We formulate integral Iwasawa main conjectures at non-ordinary primes $p$ for suitable twists of the base change of a newform $f$ to an imaginary quadratic field $K$ where $p$ splits, over the cyclotomic ${\mathbb{Z}}_p$-extension, the anticyclotomic ${\mathbb{Z}}_p$-extensions (in both the definite and the indefinite cases) as well as the ${\mathbb{Z}}_p^2$-extension of $K$. In order to do so, we define Kobayashi–Sprung-style signed Coleman maps, which we use to introduce doubly signed Selmer groups. In the same spirit, we construct signed (integral) Beilinson–Flach elements (out of the collection of unbounded Beilinson–Flach elements of Loeffler–Zerbes), which we use to define doubly signed $p$-adic $L$-functions. The main conjecture then relates these two sets of objects. Furthermore, we show that the integral Beilinson–Flach elements form a locally restricted Euler system, which in turn allow us to deduce (under certain technical assumptions) one inclusion in each one of the four main conjectures we formulate here (which may be turned into equalities in favorable circumstances).

Abstract This is the first in a series of articles where we will study the Iwasawa theory of an elliptic modular form f along the anticyclotomic {\mathbb{Z}_{p}} -tower of an imaginary quadratic field K where the prime p splits completely. Our goal in this portion is to prove the Iwasawa main conjecture for suitable twists of f assuming that f is p-ordinary, both in the definite and indefinite setups simultaneously, via an analysis of Beilinson–Flach elements.

Abstract We develop methods for constructing explicit generators, modulo torsion, of the $K_3$ -groups of imaginary quadratic number fields. These methods are based on either tessellations of hyperbolic $3$ -space or on direct calculations in suitable pre-Bloch groups and lead to the very first proven examples of explicit generators, modulo torsion, of any infinite $K_3$ -group of a number field. As part of this approach, we make several improvements to the theory of Bloch groups for $ K_3 $ of any field, predict the precise power of $2$ that should occur in the Lichtenbaum conjecture at $ -1 $ and prove that this prediction is valid for all abelian number fields.
