On the main conjectures of Iwasawa theory for certain elliptic curves with complex multiplication

Kezuka, Yukako January 2017 (has links)
The conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer is unquestionably one of the most important open problems in number theory today. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over an imaginary quadratic field $K$ contained in $\mathbb{C}$, and suppose that $E$ has complex multiplication by the ring of integers of $K$. Let us assume the complex $L$-series $L(E/K,s)$ of $E$ over $K$ does not vanish at $s=1$. K. Rubin showed, using Iwasawa theory, that the $p$-part of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture holds for $E$ for all prime numbers $p$ which do not divide the order of the group of roots of unity in $K$. In this thesis, we discuss extensions of this result. In Chapter $2$, we study infinite families of quadratic and cubic twists of the elliptic curve $A = X_0(27)$, so that they have complex multiplication by the ring of integers of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$. For the family of quadratic twists, we establish a lower bound for the $2$-adic valuation of the algebraic part of the complex $L$-series at $s=1$, and, for the family of cubic twists, we establish a lower bound for the $3$-adic valuation of the algebraic part of the same $L$-value. We show that our lower bounds are precisely those predicted by Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer. In the remaining chapters, we let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-q})$, where $q$ is any prime number congruent to $7$ modulo $8$. Denote by $H$ the Hilbert class field of $K$. \mbox{B. Gross} proved the existence of an elliptic curve $A(q)$ defined over $H$ with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of $K$ and minimal discriminant $-q^3$. We consider twists $E$ of $A(q)$ by quadratic extensions of $K$. In the case $q=7$, we have $A(q)=X_0(49)$, and Gonzalez-Aviles and Rubin proved, again using Iwasawa theory, that if $L(E/\mathbb{Q},1)$ is nonzero then the full Birch--Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture holds for $E$. Suppose $p$ is a prime number which splits in $K$, say $p=\mathfrak{p}\mathfrak{p}^*$, and $E$ has good reduction at all primes of $H$ above $p$. Let $H_\infty=HK_\infty$, where $K_\infty$ is the unique $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$ unramified outside $\mathfrak{p}$. We establish in this thesis the main conjecture for the extension $H_\infty/H$. Furthermore, we provide the necessary ingredients to state and prove the main conjecture for $E/H$ and $p$, and discuss its relation to the main conjecture for $H_\infty/H$ and the $p$-part of the Birch--Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for $E/H$.

Grandes d´eviations de matrices aléatoires et équation de Fokker-Planck libre / Large deviations of random matrices and free Fokker-Planck equation

Groux, Benjamin 09 December 2016 (has links)
Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le domaine des probabilités et des statistiques, et plus précisément des matrices aléatoires. Dans la première partie, on étudie les grandes déviations de la mesure spectrale de matrices de covariance $XX^*$, où $X$ est une matrice aléatoire rectangulaire à coefficients i.i.d. ayant une queue de probabilité en $exp(-at^{alpha})$, $alpha in ]0,2[$. On établit un principe de grandes déviations analogue à celui de Bordenave et Caputo, de vitesse $n^{1+alpha/2}$ et de fonction de taux explicite faisant intervenir la convolution libre rectangulaire. La démonstration repose sur un résultat de quantification de la liberté asymptotique dans le modèle information-plus-bruit. La seconde partie de cette thèse est consacrée à l'étude du comportement en temps long de la solution de l'équation de Fokker-Planck libre en présence du potentiel quartique $V(x) = frac14 x^4 + frac{c}{2} x^2$ avec $c ge -2$. On montre que quand $t to +infty$, la solution $mu_t$ de cette équation aux dérivées partielles converge en distance de Wasserstein vers la mesure d'équilibre associée au potentiel $V$. Ce résultat fournit un premier exemple de convergence en temps long de la solution de l'équation des milieux granulaires en présence d'un potentiel non convexe et d'une interaction logarithmique. Sa démonstration utilise notamment des techniques de probabilités libres. / This thesis lies within the field of probability and statistics, and more precisely of random matrix theory. In the first part, we study the large deviations of the spectral measure of covariance matrices XX*, where X is a rectangular random matrix with i.i.d. coefficients having a probability tail like $exp(-at^{alpha})$, $alpha in (0,2)$. We establish a large deviation principle similar to Bordenave and Caputo's one, with speed $n^{1+alpha/2}$ and explicit rate function involving rectangular free convolution. The proof relies on a quantification result of asymptotic freeness in the information-plus-noise model. The second part of this thesis is devoted to the study of the long-time behaviour of the solution to free Fokker-Planck equation in the setting of the quartic potential $V(x) = frac14 x^4 + frac{c}{2} x^2$ with $c ge -2$. We prove that when $t to +infty$, the solution $mu_t$ to this partial differential equation converge in Wasserstein distance towards the equilibrium measure associated to the potential $V$. This result provides a first example of long-time convergence for the solution of granular media equation with a non-convex potential and a logarithmic interaction. Its proof involves in particular free probability techniques.
