Elliptic curves with rank one and nontrivial 2-part of Tate Shafarevich groups over the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$

Abstract

Let $\mathbb{Q}_\infty$ be the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension over $\mathbb{Q}$. For each integer $n\geq1$, let $\mathbb{Q}_n$ denote the unique subfield in $\mathbb{Q}_\infty$ such that $[\mathbb{Q}_\infty:\mathbb{Q}]=2^n$. Denote by $\mathbb{Z}_2[{\rm Gal}(\mathbb{Q}_n/\mathbb{Q})]$ the group ring of ${\rm Gal}(\mathbb{Q}_\infty/\mathbb{Q})$. For any elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ with odd conductor, the Mazur-Tate modular element associated with the curve is an element of $\mathbb{Z}_2[{\rm Gal}(\mathbb{Q}_n/\mathbb{Q})]$. In this paper, for each $n$, we study the $2$-adic properties of Mazur-Tate modular elements associated with quadratic twists of elliptic curves, under specializations by finite order characters of ${\rm Gal}(\mathbb{Q}_n/\mathbb{Q})$. Using the congruence properties of Heegner points and an equivariant version of the Coates-Wiles theorem, we construct an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ and a family of quadratic twists $E^{(m)}$ of $E$ such that each $E^{(m)}$ has both analytic and algebraic rank one over $\mathbb{Q}_\infty$, and whose Tate-Shafarevich group is infinite over $\mathbb{Q}_\infty$.

On single-variable Witten zeta functions of rank two and three

By introducing a novel integration kernel for the Mellin transform, we uncover many previously unknown and intriguing properties of the Witten zeta functions of rank two and three. Detailed results concerning their pole locations, residues, and special values are obtained. We propose a non-trivial conjecture regarding their derivatives at the origin, which seems to encode deep information about the root system. We also discuss their behavior at negative integers, highlighting a connection with Eisenstein series and a $p$-adic observation.

On graded Lie algebras associated to once-punctured elliptic curves with complex multiplication

We study a graded Lie algebra arising from the Galois action on the pro-$p$ fundamental group of a once-punctured elliptic curve with complex multiplication. Among other things, we provide a minimal generating set of the rationalized Lie algebra under suitable assumptions. The proof is based on a slight variant of the theory of weighted completion of profinite groups developed by Hain and Matsumoto.

Burgess-type volume dependent bounds for character sums over $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$

We establish a Burgess-type bound for short multiplicative character sums over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$. Let \[ B=\left\{\sum_{i=1}^{n}x_iω_i: N_i+1\le x_i\le N_i+H_i,1\le i\le n\right\}\subseteq\mathbb{F}_{p^n}, \] where $1\le H_i\le p$ for all $1\le i\le n$, and the side lengths satisfy $H_1\le H_2\le\cdots\le H_n.$ We prove that if the side lengths satisfy certain lower bounds in terms of the two largest side lengths, then a nontrivial cancellation occurs in the character sum over the boxes. This generalizes the work of Gabdullin \cite{GB} in dimensions $n=2,3$ to arbitrary dimension. This also generalizes the character sum estimate of Konyagin \cite{Kon} where each of the side lengths of the boxes are greater than $p^{1/4}$. The proof combines techniques from the geometry of numbers, multiplicative energy estimates, and Katz's bounds for multiplicative character sums.
