Limit Mordell-Weil groups and their \(p\)-adic closure (Q273860)

The author introduces the paper under review as a twin article of his previous paper [Pac. J. Math. 268, No. 2, 283--312 (2014; Zbl 1312.11033)]. To a modular cuspidal eigenform \(f\) of weight \(2\), a well-known construction due to Eichler and Shimura attaches an abelian variety \(A_f\) defined over \({\mathbb{Q}}\) of dimension the degree of the field generated by the coefficients of \(f\) over \({\mathbb{Q}}\). The author considers the Mordell-Weil group \(A_f(k)\) for \(k\) a fixed number field. He produces control theorems which give information on how the group \(\hat{A}_f(k)=A_f(k)\otimes_{\mathbb{Z}} {\mathbb{Z}}_p\) varies as \(f\) varies among those cuspidal eigenforms \(f\) in the family. He also considers the same question where the number field \(k\) is replaced by an \(\ell\)-adic field. The organization of the paper is the following. After the introduction, section 2 deals with sheaves associated to abelian varieties. Section 3 deals with \(U (p)\)-isomorphisms. The structure of \(\Lambda\)-BT groups over number fields and local fields is described in section 4. Section 5 is about abelian factors of modular Jacobians. In section 6, the author studies the structure of ind-\(\Lambda\)-MW groups over number fields and local fields. The last section 7 deals with the closure of the global \(\Lambda\)-MW group in the local case.
