We introduce the notion of completed F-crystals on the absolute prismatic site of a smooth p-adic formal scheme. We define a functor from the category of completed prismatic F-crystals to that of crystalline étale Zp-local systems on the generic fiber of the formal scheme and show that it gives an equivalence of categories. This generalizes the work of Bhatt and Scholze, which treats the case of a complete discrete valuation ring with perfect residue field.

We give a new construction of (φ,Ĝ )-modules using the theory of prisms developed by Bhatt and Scholze. As an application, we give a new proof about the equivalence between the category of prismatic F-crystals in finite locally free Δ-modules over (K)Δ and the category of lattices in crystalline representations of GK, where K is a complete discretely valued field of mixed characteristic with perfect residue field. We also generalize this result to semi-stable representations using the absolute logarithmic prismatic site defined by Koshikawa.

Let R be a non-discrete rank one valuation ring of characteristic p and let E be any discrete valuation ring, we prove the ring of E-Witt vectors over R has uncountable Krull dimension without assuming the axiom of existence of prime ideals for general commutative unitary rings.

Let K=Q(√(-q)), where q is any prime number congruent to 7 modulo 8, and let O be the ring of integers of K. The prime 2 splits in K, say 2O=pp∗, and there is a unique Z_2-extension K_∞ of K which is unramified outside p. Let H be the Hilbert class field of K, and write H_∞=HK_∞. Let M(H_∞) be the maximal abelian 2-extension of H_∞ which is unramified outside the primes above p, and put X(H_∞)=Gal(M(H_∞)/H_∞). We prove that X(H_∞) is always a finitely generated Z_2-module, by an elliptic analogue of Sinnott’s cyclotomic argument. We then use this result to prove for the first time the weak p-adic Leopoldt conjecture for the compositum J_∞ of K_∞ with arbitrary quadratic extensions J of H. We also prove some new cases of the finite generation of the Mordell–Weil group E(J_∞) modulo torsion of certain elliptic curves E with complex multiplication by O.

The paper uses Iwasawa theory at the prime 𝑝=2 to prove non-vanishing theorems for the value at 𝑠=1 of the complex 𝐿-series of certain quadratic twists of the Gross family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication by the field 𝐾 = ℚ(√(-q)), where 𝑞 is any prime ≡ 7 mod 8. Our results establish some broad generalizations of the non-vanishing theorem first proven by Rohrlich using complex analytic methods. Such non-vanishing theorems are important because it is known that they imply the finiteness of the Mordell–Weil group and the Tate–Shafarevich group of the corresponding elliptic curves over the Hilbert class field of 𝐾. It is essential for the proofs to study the Iwasawa theory of the higher dimensional abelian variety with complex multiplication which is obtained by taking the restriction of scalars to 𝐾 of the particular elliptic curve with complex multiplication introduced by Gross.

We study elliptic curves of the form x^3+y^3=2^p and x^3+y^3=2p^2 where p is any odd prime satisfying p ≡ 2 mod 9 or p ≡ 5 mod 9. We first show that the 3-part of the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture holds for these curves. Then we relate their 2-Selmer group to the 2-rank of the ideal class group of Q(\sqrt[3]{p}) to obtain some examples of elliptic curves with rank one and non-trivial 2-part of the Tate-Shafarevich group.

In the present paper, we prove the 2-part of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for an explicit infinite family of rank 0 quadratic twists of the modular elliptic curve χ_0(14), using an explicit form of the Waldspurger formula. We also give an explicit infinite family of rank 1 quadratic twists of χ_0(14) whose Tate–Shafarevich group is of odd cardinality.

For primes q≡7 mod 16, the present manuscript shows that elementary methods enable one to prove surprisingly strong results about the Iwasawa theory of the Gross family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of the field K=Q(√(-q)), which are in perfect accord with the predictions of the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer. We also prove some interesting phenomena related to a classical conjecture of Greenberg, and give a new proof of an old theorem of Hasse.
