Lambda-invariants of Mazur--Tate elements attached to Ramanujan's tau function and congruences with Eisenstein series

Let $p\in\{3,5,7\}$ and let $\Delta$ denote the weight twelve modular form arising from Ramanujan's tau function. We show that $\Delta$ is congruent to an Eisenstein series $E_{k,\chi, \psi}$ modulo $p$ for explicit choices of $k$ and Dirichlet characters $\chi$ and $\psi$. We then prove formulae describing the Iwasawa invariants of the Mazur--Tate elements attached to $\Delta$, confirming numerical data gathered by the authors in a previous work.

Congruences between Ramanujan's tau function and elliptic curves, and Mazur--Tate elements at additive primes

We show that if $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with a rational $p$-torsion for $p=2$ or $3$, then there is a congruence relation between Ramanujan's tau function and $E$ modulo $p$. We make use of such congruences to compute the Iwasawa invariants of $2$-adic and $3$-adic Mazur--Tate elements attached to Ramanujan's tau function. We also investigate numerically the Iwasawa invariants of the Mazur--Tate elements attached to an elliptic curve with additive reduction at a fixed prime number.
