Let K/Q be a real quadratic field. Given an automorphic representation π for GL2/K, let As±(π) denote the plus/minus Asai transfer of π to an automorphic representation for GL4/Q. In this paper, we construct a rigid analytic map from a subvariety of the universal eigenvariety of GL2/K to an eigenvariety of GL4/Q, which at nice classical points interpolate this Asai transfer. © 2019 Ramanujan Mathematical Society.

P-adic Asai transfer

We establish a duality result proving the 'functional equation' of the characteristic ideal of the Selmer group associated to a nearly ordinary Hilbert modular form over the cyclotomic Zp extension of a totally real number field. Further, we use this result to establish an 'algebraic functional equation' for the 'big' Selmer groups associated to the corresponding nearly ordinary Hida deformation. The multivariable cyclotomic Iwasawa main conjecture for nearly ordinary Hida family of Hilbert modular forms is not established yet and this can be thought of as a modest evidence to the validity of this Iwasawa main conjecture. We also prove a functional equation for the 'big' Selmer group associated to an ordinary Hida family of elliptic modular forms over the ℤ p 2 extension of an imaginary quadratic field. © 2017 International Press.

Functional equation for the Selmer group of nearly ordinary Hida deformation of Hilbert modular forms

In this paper, we extend the endoscopic transfer of definite unitary group U(n), which sends a pair of automorphic forms of U(n1), U(n2) to an automorphic form of U(n1 + n2), to finite slope p-adic automorphic forms for definite unitary groups by constructing a rigid analytic map between eigenvarieties n1 × n2 → (n1+n2), which at classical points interpolates endoscopic transfer map. © 2016 Ramanujan Mathematical Society.

p-Adic Aspects of Modular Forms

Let K/F be a cyclic extension of odd prime degree l over a number field F. If F has class number coprime to l, we study the structure of the l-Sylow subgroup of the class group of K. In particular, when F contains the l-th roots of unity, we obtain bounds for the Fl -rank of the l-Sylow subgroup of K using genus theory. We obtain some results valid for general l. Following that, we obtain more complete, explicit results for l = 5 and F = ℚ(e2iπ/5). The rank of the 5-class group of K is expressed in terms of power residue symbols. We compare our results with tables obtained using SAGE (the latter is under GRH). We obtain explicit results in several cases. These results have a number of potential applications. For instance, some of them like Theorem 5.16 could be useful in the arithmetic of elliptic curves over towers of the form ℚ(e2iπ/5n, x1/5). Using the results on the class groups of the fields of the form ℚ(e2iπ/5, x1/5), and using Kummer duality theory, we deduce results on the 5-class numbers of fields of the form ℚ(x1/5). © 2015 Ramanujan Mathematical Society.

L-class groups of cyclic extensions of prime degree l

In this paper we show that the critical Eisenstein series of weight 2, E2critp, defines a smooth point in the eigen-curve C(l), where l is a prime different from p. We also show that E2critp,ordl defines a smooth point in the full eigencurve Cfull(l) and E2critp,ordl1,ordl2 defines a non-smooth point in the full eigencurve Cfull(l1l2). Further, we show that C(l) is étale over the weight space at the point defined by E2critp. As a consequence, we show that level lowering conjecture of Paulin fails to hold at E2critp,ordl. © Société Arithmétique de Bordeaux, 2015.
