Invariance of the parity conjecture for p-Selmer groups of elliptic curves in a $D_{2p^n}$-extension
In section 2, we show a $p$-parity result in a $D_{2p^{n}}$-extension of number fields $L/K$ ($p\geq 5$) for the twist $1\oplus η\oplus τ$: W(E/K,1\oplus η\oplus τ)=(-1)^{< 1\oplusη\oplus τ, X_{p}(E/L)>}, where $E$ is an elliptic curve over $K,$ $η$ and $τ$ are respectively the quadratic character and an irreductible representation of degree 2 of $Gal(L/K)=D_{2p^{n}},$ and $X_{p}(E/L)$ is the $p$-Selmer group. The main novelty is that we use a congruence result between $% ε_{0}$-factors (due to Deligne) for the determination of local root numbers in bad cases (places of additive reduction above 2 and 3). We also give applications to the $p$-parity conjecture (using the machinery of the Dokchitser brothers).
