AbstractLet K be a totally real number field of degree r. Let K∞ denote the cyclotomic -extension of K, and let L∞ be a finite extension of K∞, abelian over K. The goal of this paper is to compare the characteristic ideal of the χ-quotient of the projective limit of the narrow class groups to the χ-quotient of the projective limit of the rth exterior power of totally positive units modulo a subgroup of Rubin–Stark units, for some $\overline{\mathbb{Q}_{2}}$-irreducible characters χ of Gal(L∞/K∞).

Let [Formula: see text] be a number field and let [Formula: see text] be an odd rational prime. Let [Formula: see text] be a [Formula: see text]-extension of [Formula: see text] and let [Formula: see text] be a finite extension of [Formula: see text], abelian over [Formula: see text]. In this paper we extend the classical results, e.g. [16], relating characteristic ideal of the [Formula: see text]-quotient of the projective limit of the ideal class groups to the [Formula: see text]-quotient of the projective limit of units modulo Stark units, in the non-semi-simple case, for some [Formula: see text]-irreductible characters [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]. The proof essentially uses the theory of Euler systems.

AbstractThe main theorem of the author’s thesis suggests that it should be possible to lift the Kolyvagin systems of Stark units, constructed by the author in an earlier paper, to a Kolyvagin system over the cyclotomic Iwasawa algebra. In this paper, we verify that this is indeed the case. This construction of Kolyvagin systems over the cyclotomic Iwasawa algebra from Stark units provides the first example towards a more systematic study of Kolyvagin system theory over an Iwasawa algebra when the core Selmer rank (in the sense of Mazur and Rubin) is greater than one. As a result of this construction, we reduce the main conjectures of Iwasawa theory for totally real fields to a statement in the context of local Iwasawa theory, assuming the truth of the Rubin–Stark conjecture and Leopoldt’s conjecture. This statement in the local Iwasawa theory context turns out to be interesting in its own right, as it suggests a relation between the solutions to p-adic and complex Stark conjectures.

AbstractBy a fundamental theorem of Brauer every irreducible character of a finite group G can be written in the field Q(εm) of mth roots of unity where m is the exponent of G. Is it always possible to find a matrix representation over its ring Z[εm] of integers? In the present paper it is shown that this holds true provided it is valid for the quasisimple groups. The reduction to such groups relies on a useful extension theorem for integral representations. Iwasawa theory on class groups of cyclotomic fields gives evidence that the answer is at least affirmative when the exponent is replaced by the order, and provides for a general qualitative result.

Abstract We establish several close links between the Galois structures of a range of arithmetic modules including certain natural families of ray class groups, the values at strictly positive integers of p-adic Artin L-series, the Shafarevich–Weil Theorem and the conjectural surjectivity of certain norm maps in cyclotomic {\mathbb{Z}_{p}} -extensions. Non-commutative Iwasawa theory and the theory of organising matrices play a key role in our approach.

This chapter explains and proves the Nielsen–Thurston classification of elements of Mod(S), one of the central theorems in the study of mapping class groups. It first considers the classification of elements for the torus of Mod(T² before discussing higher-genus analogues for each of the three types of elements of Mod(T². It then states the Nielsen–Thurston classification theorem in various forms, as well as a connection to 3-manifold theory, along with Thurston's geometric classification of mapping torus. The rest of the chapter is devoted to Bers' proof of the Nielsen–Thurston classification. The collar lemma is highlighted as a new ingredient, as it is also a fundamental result in the hyperbolic geometry of surfaces.
