Determining monogenity of pure cubic number fields using elliptic curves

Abstract

We study monogenity of pure cubic number fields by means of Selmer groups of certain elliptic curves. A cubic number field with discriminant $D$ determines a unique nontrivial $\mathbb{F}_3$-orbit in the first cohomology group of the elliptic curve $E^D: y^2 = 4x^3 + D$ with respect to a certain 3-isogeny $ϕ$. Orbits corresponding to monogenic fields must lie in the soluble part of the Selmer group $S^ϕ(E^D/\mathbb{Q})$, and this gives a criterion to discard monogenity. From this, we can derive bounds on the number of monogenic cubic fields in terms of the rank of the elliptic curve. We can also determine the monogenity of many concrete pure cubic fields assuming GRH.

On the factorisation of the $p$-adic Rankin-Selberg $L$-function in the supersingular case

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of $F$. We prove that this new $p$-adic $L$-function interpolates values of complex imprimitive symmetric square $L$-functions, for the various specialisations of the family $F$. We use this $p$-adic $L$-function to prove a $p$-adic factorisation formula, expressing the geometric $p$-adic $L$-function attached to the Rankin--Selberg convolution of $f$ with itself as a the product of the $p$-adic symmetric square $L$-function of $f$ and a Kubota-Leopoldt $L$-function. This extends a result of Dasgupta in the ordinary case.

Exceptional poles of archimedean Rankin-Selberg L-functions for irreducible generic representations of GL(n,R)

For irreducible generic representations $π_1$ and $π_2$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb R)$, we prove that the notions of exceptional pole of type $1$ and type $2$ coincide at every level. When both representations are in general position, we use this identification to express the Rankin--Selberg $L$-function $L(s,π_1\timesπ_2)$ in terms of the exceptional $L$-factors attached to the irreducible constituents of their derivatives.
