Solving equations of signature $(p,p,2)$ with coefficients over number fields

Using the modular method, we study solutions to the Diophantine equation $$Aa^p+Bb^p=Cc^2$$ over number fields. We first prove an asymptotic result for general number fields satisfying an appropriate $S$-unit condition by assuming some standard conjectures in the case of fields that are not totally real. Specifically, we verify that this condition holds for an infinite family of real quadratic fields. Outside the asymptotic setting, we also obtain effective results. In particular, for the equation $$a^p+db^p=c^2$$ over $K= \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$ with $d \in \{3, 11, 19, 43, \}$ and $K= \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt d)$ with $d \in \{3, 5, 11, 13, 19, 29\}$, we find explicit bounds (depending on $d$) such that no non-trivial solutions of a certain type exist whenever $p$ exceeds these bounds.

On the growth of Tate-Shafarevich groups of $p$-supersingular abelian varieties of ${\rm GL}_2$-type over $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of number fields

We study the boundedness of the Mordell-Weil rank and the growth of the $v$-primary part of the Tate-Shafarevich group of $p$-supersingular abelian varieties of ${\rm GL}_2$-type with real multiplication over $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of number fields, where $v$ is a prime lying above $p$. Building on the work of Iovita-Pollack in the case of elliptic curves, under precise ramification and splitting conditions on $p$, we construct explicit systems of local points using the theory of Lubin-Tate formal groups. We then define signed Coleman maps, which in turn allow us to formulate and analyse signed Selmer groups. Assuming these Selmer groups are cotorsion, we prove that the Mordell-Weil groups are bounded over any subextensions of the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension and provide an asymptotic formula for the growth of the $v$-primary part of the Tate-Shafarevich groups. Our results extend those of Kobayashi, Pollack, and Sprung on $p$-supersingular elliptic curves.

On Anticyclotomic Iwasawa Theory of Hecke Characters at Ordinary Primes

In this article we study the Iwasawa theory for Hecke characters associated with CM abelian varieties and Hilbert modular forms at ordinary primes. We formulate and prove a result concerning the anticyclotomic Iwasawa main conjecture for CM Hilbert modular forms. Additionally, we obtain a result towards the study of the Mordell-Weil ranks of the CM abelian varieties.

The growth of Tate-Shafarevich groups of $p$-supersingular elliptic curves over anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions at inert primes

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field. Consider an odd prime $p$ at which $E$ has good supersingular reduction with $a_p(E)=0$ and which is inert in $K$. Under the assumption that the signed Selmer groups are cotorsion modules over the corresponding Iwasawa algebra, we prove that the Mordell-Weil ranks of $E$ are bounded over any subextensions of the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$. Additionally, we provide an asymptotic formula for the growth of the $p$-parts of the Tate-Shafarevich groups of $E$ over these extensions.

On Modular Approach to Diophantine Equation $x^4-y^4=nz^p$ over Number Fields

Recent results of Freitas, Kraus, Sengun and Siksek give sufficient criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over various number fields. In this paper, we prove asymptotic results about the solutions of the Diophantine equation $x^4-y^4=nz^p$ over various number fields using the modular method. For instance, we prove that the asymptotic generalised Fermat Theorem for the equation $x^4-y^4=2^\alpha z^p$ holds for infinitely many quadratic number fields.

On Ternary Diophantine Equations of Signature $(p,p,3)$ over Number Fields

In this paper, we prove results about solutions of the Diophantine equation $x^p+y^p=z^3$ over various number fields using the modular method. Firstly, by assuming some standard modularity conjecture we prove an asymptotic result for general number fields of narrow class number one satisfying some technical conditions. Secondly, we show that there is an explicit bound such that the equation $x^p+y^p=z^3$ does not have a particular type of solution over $K=\Q(\sqrt{-d})$ where $d=1,7,19,43,67$ whenever $p$ is bigger than this bound. During the course of the proof we prove various results about the irreducibility of Galois representations, image of inertia groups and Bianchi newforms.
