Abstract: For every odd prime p, we exhibit families of irreducible Artin representations au with the property that for every elliptic curve E the order of the zero of the twisted L-function L(E,au,s) at s!=!1 must be a multiple~of~p. Analogously, the multiplicity of au in the Selmer group of E must also be divisible by p. We give further examples where au can moreover be twisted by any character that factors through the p-cyclotomic extension, and examples where the L-functions are those of twists of certain Hilbert modular forms by Dirichlet charaters. These results are conjectural, and rely on a standard generalisation of the Birch--Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. Our main tool is the theory of Schur indices from representation theory.
