In March 2015, the Dokchitser brothers and the two of us organized two events, a
workshop and a conference, in honour of John Coates’ 70th birthday, in order to
celebrate John’s work and his mathematical heritage. Among the participants of the
conference were many young mathematicians, and it is clear that John’s work, in
particular on Iwasawa theory, continues to be a great source of inspiration for the
new generation of number theorists. It is therefore a pleasure to dedicate this
volume to him, in admiration for his contributions to number theory and his
influence on the subject via his many students and collaborators.

Abstract We prove the p-part of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for
elliptic curves of analytic rank one for most ordinary primes.
1 Introduction
The theory of congruences between modular forms has turned out to be a crucial
player in a number of momentous results in the theory of rational points on elliptic
curves. To mention only a few instances, we recall here Mazur’s theory of the Eisen-
stein ideal [16], in which congruences between cusp forms and Eisenstein series on
GL2 are used to uniformly bound the torsion subgroups of elliptic curves over Q.
More germane to our setting, the recent work of Skinner–Urban [22] constructs
classes in the p-primary Shafarevich–Tate group of an elliptic curve over Q (and
more generally, over cyclotomic extensions) when p is ordinary and divides (the
algebraic part of ) the value of the associated Hasse–Weil L-series at s = 1. This is

of minimal degree deg(πA ). For every rational point P ∈ A(Q), write hNT (P) ∈ R
for the canonical Néron–Tateheight of P, and let A ∈ R∗ be the real Néron period
attached to A/Q. Set cA := q|N cq (A), where cq (A) is the Tamagawa number of
A/Qq , and denote by ap (A) the coefficient 1 + p − Ā(Fp ) of A at p, and by ordp :
Q∗ → Z the p-adic valuation.
Theorem A Assume that A/Q is semistable. Let p > 7 be a prime which does not
divide deg(πA ), and is good ordinary and non-anomalous for A (i.e., p N and
ap (A) ≡ 0, 1 (mod p)). If L(A/Q, s) has a simple zero at s = 1, then

Theorem 6.1 has been obtained independently by Zhang [27]. His method uses
the reciprocity laws of loc. cit. together with [22] to prove Kolyvagin’s conjecture
on the non-vanishing of the cohomology classes defined in terms of Galois-theoretic
derivatives of Heegner points over ring class fields. This conjecture is known to
imply Theorem 6.1, thanks to prior work of Kolyvagin [15]. The method explained
in this paper (a weaker version of which appears in the first author’s Ph.D. thesis
[1]) is more direct, insofar as it consists in an explicit comparison of Selmer groups
and of special values of L-series attached to congruent modular forms.1
for the Hecke algebra generated over Z by the Hecke operators Tq , for primes q N,
and Uq for primes q|N.
Let R be a complete local Noetherian ring with finite residue field kR of character-
istic p. (In the following sections, R will often be chosen to be the finite ring Z/pn Z.)
An R-valued (weight two) eigenform of level (N + , N − ) is a ring homomorphism
g : TN + ,N − −→ R.
1 Inthe recent preprint [12] the authors give a different proof of Theorem A. More precisely they
combine the p-adic Gross–Zagier formula of [5] with (one divisibility in) the Iwasawa main con-
jecture for Rankin–Selberg convolutions [24] to deduce an analogue of Theorem 6.1 below (see
also Sect. 6.6). Their approach applies only to imaginary quadratic fields in which p splits, but
requires no assumption on the Tamagawa factors of A/Q. In particular they remove the hypothesis
p deg(πA ) from Theorem A.

Let K/Q be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant coprime with Np. For

Sel(K, g) ⊂ H 1 (K, Tg ),
Note that the Selmer group Sel(K, g) depends on g (since it depends on its level N),
and not only on the representation Tg attached to it.
In this section, R will denote the finite ring Z/pn Z, where n is a positive integer and
p is a rational prime. Let g ∈ S2 (N + , N − ; Z/pn Z) be a mod-pn eigenform of level
(N + , N − ), and let K/Q be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant coprime
with Np.
Following [3], we say that a rational prime is an n-admissible prime relative to
g if the following conditions are satisfied:
A1. does not divide Np.
A2. 2 − 1 is a unit in Z/pn Z (i.e. ≡ ±1 (mod p)).
A3. g(T )2 = ( + 1)2 in Z/pn Z.
If, in addition, is inert in K, we say that is n-admissible relative to (g, K).
For a rational prime , we say that an eigenform g ∈ S2 (N + , N − ; Z/pn Z), i.e.
a surjective morphism g : TN + ,N − → Z/pn Z, is an -level raising of g if
for every prime q N, resp. q|N. As recalled in loc. cit., if is n-admissible relative
to g, then an -level raising g exists.

Fix such an isomorphism, that we regard as an equality from now on. The following

p-adic cyclotomic character ε (resp., acts trivially). Moreover, this decomposition
induces isomorphisms

gL (Tq ) = g(Tq ) (for all q NL), gL (Uq ) = g(Uq ) (for all q|N).
Proof We make some remarks about the references for the proof of this theorem.
Assume that N − > 1 and that N − has an odd (resp., even) number of prime divi-
sors. In this case the theorem is proved in Sect. 5 (resp., 9) of [3], working under
slightly more restrictive assumptions on (ρ g , N + , N − , p), subsequently removed in
Sect. 4 of [18]. The method of [3] generalises previous work of Ribet (which consid-
ered the case n = 1), and uses Diamond–Taylor’s generalisation of Ihara’s Lemma
(for modular curves) to Shimura curves. We refer to loc. cit. for more details and
references.
Assume now that N − = 1. If n = 1, the theorem has been proved by Ribet. If
n > 1, the theorem can be proved by following the arguments appearing in Sect. 9
of [3] (see in particular Proposition 9.2 and Theorem 9.3), and invoking the clas-
sical Ihara Lemma (instead of Diamond–Taylor’s generalisation) in the proof of
Proposition 9.2.
In this section we recall (special cases of ) the explicit reciprocity laws proved in
[3], which relate Heegner points on Shimura curves to special values of Rankin
L-functions (described in terms of certain Gross points attached to modular forms
on definite quaternion algebras). Together with the proof by Kato–Skinner–Urban
of the ( p-part of ) the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer formula in analytic rank zero
(cf. Sect. 5 below), these reciprocity laws will be at the heart of our proof of
Theorem A.
Fix throughout this section a factorisation N = N + N − of a positive integer N, a
rational prime p not dividing N, and a Zp -valued eigenform
f ∈ S2 (N + , N − ; Zp )

is again a smooth projective curve over Z[1/N].
where End(P) ⊂ End(A) denotes the ring of endomorphisms of A/C which com-
mute with the action of ι, and respect the level structure C. By the theory of complex
multiplication,
P ∈ XN + ,N − (H),
Gr N + ,N − L (K) ⊂ Gr M + ,M − L (K, ∞)
the set of Gross points of conductor one. In what follows, a Gross point (of level N +
on B) will always be a Gross point (of level N + on B) of conductor one.
With the notations of the previous section, let L = be a rational prime which is
inert in K/Q and such that N. The reduction modulo map on the Shimura
curve XN + ,N − allows us to define a map

Lp (g/K) can be shown to be independent, up to sign, of the choice of the Gross
point x fixed to define it. We refer to Sect. 3 of [2] for more details.)
When n = ∞, so that g arises from a classical modular form, Lp (g/K) is essen-
tially equal to the square-root of the special value L(g/K, 1), as explained in Sect. 4
below.

HeegN + ,N − L (K) ⊂ XL (H), let
P(L) := P(L)σ ∈ PicL (K),
σ ∈Gal(H/K)
The class κ(L) is uniquely determined, up to sign, by the choice of the isomorphism
πL in (7) [3]. It is then naturally associated with the pair ( f , L) up to multiplication
by a p-adic unit.

quaternionic special value

duced in Sect. 2.3. The following theorem is a special case of [3, Theorem 4.1].
Proof This is proved in Sect. 9 of [3] when N − = 1 (i.e. XN + ,N − is not the classical
modular curve of level 0 (N)), using Diamond–Taylor’s generalisation of Ihara’s
Lemma to Shimura curves. On the other hand, making use of the classical Ihara’s
Lemma, the argument of loc. cit. also applies to the case N − = 1. To handle the
case N − = 1, one may alternately go through the argument of Vatsal in [23, Sect. 6],
Congruences Between Modular Forms and the Birch . . . 15
where the case N − = 1 and n = 1 of Theorem 3.4 is proved, and note that the proof
applies also to the case n > 1.

where (g, g) is the Petersson norm of g ∈ S2 (0 (N)), and where we write again g
to denote the composition of g : TN + ,N − → Zp with the natural projection TN,1 →
TN + ,N − in order to define ηg (N, 1).
Before stating Gross’ formula, we also need to introduce the Tamagawa expo-
nents attached to g at primes dividing N. Let φ denote either g or its quadratic
twist g ⊗ K . Write as usual Tφ ∈ Zp [G Q ] Mod for the p-adic representation attached
to φ, and Aφ := Tφ ⊗Zp Qp /Zp . Given a prime q | N, the Tamagawa factor cq (φ)
I
is defined to be the cardinality of (the finite group) H 1 (Frobq , Aφq ), where Iq is the
inertia subgroup of G Qq . The Tamagawa exponent tq (g) = tq (g/K) of g at q is the
p-adic valuation of cq (g) · cq (g ⊗ K ). (If q|N − then tq (g) is the largest integer
n 0 such that the G Q -module Ag [pn ] is unramified at q, cf. [18, Definition 3.3].)
The following result is due the the work many people, including Gross, Daghigh,
Hatcher, Hui Xue, Ribet–Takahashi, and Pollack–Weston. We refer to [18] and
Sect. 3.1 of [4] for more details and precise references.

The following theorem combines the work of Kato [13] and Skinner–Urban [22]
on the Iwasawa main conjecture for GL2 . More precisely, it follows from Theorem
3.29 of [22], applied to g and its quadratic twist g ⊗ K , taking into account the
algebraic Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer formulae proved by Mazur. For the precise
statement in the level of generality required here, we refer to Theorem B in Skinner’s
preprint [21].
Recall the Tamagawa exponent tq (g) = tq (g/K) attached to every prime q|N in
the preceding section.
Theorem 5.1 Assume that
1. p N and g is p-ordinary,
2. the residual representation ρ g : G Q → GL2 (Fp ) is irreducible,
3. there exists a prime q | N such that ρ g is ramified at q.
Then L alg (g/K, 1) = 0 if and only if Selp∞ (K, g) is finite. In this case, the equality

the p-part of the index of ZPK in A(K). Write, as customary, X(A/K)p∞ for the
p-primary part of the Shafarevich–Tate group of A/K. The following theorem is the
main result of this note and will imply Theorem A of the Introduction.
Theorem 6.1 Assume that A/Q is semistable, and that p > 7 is a prime which does
not divide deg(πA ). Assume furthermore that ap (A) ≡ 0, 1 (mod p), resp. ap (A) ≡
0, ±1 (mod p) when p is split, resp. inert in K, and that all primes dividing N are
split in K. If L(A/K, s) has a simple zero at s = 1, then
Ip (PK )2 = #X(A/K)p∞ .
Assume from now on that the assumptions of Theorem 6.1 are satisfied, and fix a
positive integer n such that
n > 2 · max ordp Ip (PK ) , ordp #X(A/K)p∞ . (8)
f ∈ S2 (N, 1; Zp ); N + := N; N − := 1.
Note that, since f is q-new at every prime q | N, one can consider f ∈ S2 (N/m,
m; Zp ), for every positive divisor m of N. In other words, f : TN := TN,1 → Zp
factorises through the m-new quotient TN/m,m of TN , for every positive divisor m
of N. As in Sect. 3.3, for every m ∈ N ∪ {∞} let f{m} ∈ S2 (N, 1; Zp /pm Zp ) denote
the reduction of f modulo pm .
Congruences Between Modular Forms and the Birch . . . 19
Let ∈ Ldef
n be an n-admissible prime relative to ( f , K). The next result shows that
the conclusion of Theorem 6.1 holds under certain assumptions.
Proposition 6.3 Assume that f can be lifted to a true modular form. Moreover,
assume that the map A(K) ⊗ Z/pn Z → A(K ) ⊗ Z/pn Z (induced by the natural
inclusion A(K) → A(K )) is injective. Then
Ip (PK )2 = #X(A/K)p∞ .
The rest of this section will be devoted to the proof Proposition 6.3. Section 3.3.2
attaches to f{n} and 1 ∈ Lindef a global cohomology class κ(1) ∈ H 1 (K, Tf ,n ). The
representation Tf ,n attached to f{n} is nothing but the pn -torsion submodule Apn of
A = A(Q). Since ρ f is irreducible, πA induces isomorphisms of Zp [G Q ]-modules
πA : Tap (J)/If ∼= Tf and πA,n : Tap (J)/If ,n ∼
= Tf ,n , where J/Q = Jac(X0 (N)) is the
Jacobian variety of X0 (N), If := ker( f ) and If ,n := ker f{n} . One can then take
πA,n = π1 in (7), and retracing definitions it follows that, up to multiplication by
p-adic units,
κ(1) = δ(PK ) ∈ Sel(K, f{n} ), (9)
where δ denotes the global Kummer map A(K)/pn → H 1 (K, Apn ). We observe that
the class κ(1) belongs to the Selmer group Sel(K, f{n} ), defined in Sect. 2.2 by ordi-
nary conditions (which can be imposed in the current context in light of Lemma
6.2), since this Selmer group coincides with the usual pn -Selmer group of A in which
the local conditions are described in terms of the local Kummer maps. Indeed, our
assumption on ap (A) being ≡ 1 or ≡ ±1 (mod p) implies that the local Selmer con-
ditions at p agree (see for example [9]). As for the primes dividing N, this is a direct
20 A. Berti et al.
(see Sect. 2.3 for the last isomorphism). To see this, consider the composition
δ
A(K) ⊗ Z/pn Z → A(K ) ⊗ Z/pn Z → Hfin
1
(K , Tf ,n ) ∼
= Z/pn Z. (11)
Since p > 7, one has A(K)p = 0 by Mazur’s theorem. Moreover, as we are assum-
ing ords=1 L(A/K, s) = 1, the Gross–Zagier–Kolyvagin theorem gives that A(K) has
rank one. It follows that A(K) ⊗ Z/pn Z ∼ = Z/pn Z. Since by assumption the first
map in (11) is injective, the composition (11) is an isomorphism, and the claim (10)
follows. Theorem 3.4 then yields the equality
More precisely, note that g satisfies the assumptions of Theorems 4.2 and 5.1
by Lemma 6.2. Moreover, as explained in the proof of Lemma 2.2 of [3], the
assumption p deg(πA ) and Ribet’s lowering the level theorem [19] imply that
∼ is ramified at every prime q | N. By the definition of tq (g), this gives
p = Ag,1
A
tq (g)
q|N p = pt (g) , and the first equality in (13). Since by construction Lp (g/K) ≡
Lp () (mod pn ), and Ip (PK ) is non-zero in Z/pn Z by (8), Lp (g/K) = 0 by (12),
hence L alg (g/K, 1) = 0, and the second equality in (13) follows by Theorem 5.1.
Combining Eqs. (12) and (13) give the identity
It then remains to compare the cardinality of the p-primary Selmer group Selp∞
(K, g) with that of the p-primary part of the Shafarevich–Tate group X(A/K). In
order to do that, one first notes that
Sel(K, f ) ∼
= Selp∞ (K, g), (15)
where Sel(K, f ) is the pn -Selmer group attached in Sect. 2.1 to f = g{n} . (Note
that f satisfies Assumption 2.1, thanks to Lemma 6.2.) By the irreducibility of Ap
and our assumptions on ap (A), it is easily seen that the natural map Sel(K, f ) →
Selp∞ (K, g)[pn ] is an isomorphism (cf. [9]). On the other hand, Eqs. (12), (13) and
