On rational Eisenstein primes and the rational cuspidal groups of modular Jacobian varieties
Let be a non-squarefree positive integer and let be an odd prime
such that does not divide . Consider the Hecke ring
of weight for , and its rational Eisenstein primes of
containing , defined in Section 3. If is
such a rational Eisenstein prime, then we prove that is of the
form , where the ideal of
is also defined in Section 3. Furthermore, we prove that
, where is the rational
cuspidal group of . To do this, we compute the precise order of the
cuspidal divisor , defined in Section 4, and the index of
in .Comment: Many arguments are clarified, and many details are filled i
Rational torsion points on Jacobians of modular curves
Let be a prime greater than 3. Consider the modular curve over

The rational cuspidal divisor class group of
For any positive integer , we completely determine the structure of the
rational cuspidal divisor class group of , which is conjecturally equal
to the rational torsion subgroup of . More specifically, for a given
prime , we construct a rational cuspidal divisor for any
non-trivial divisor of . Also, we compute the order of the linear
equivalence class of the divisor and show that the -primary
subgroup of the rational cuspidal divisor class group of is isomorphic
to the direct sum of the cyclic subgroups generated by the linear equivalence
classes of the divisors .Comment: Comments are welcom
Abelian arithmetic Chern-Simons theory and arithmetic linking numbers
Following the method of Seifert surfaces in knot theory, we define arithmetic
linking numbers and height pairings of ideals using arithmetic duality
theorems, and compute them in terms of n-th power residue symbols. This
formalism leads to a precise arithmetic analogue of a 'path-integral formula'
for linking numbers
Arithmetic Chern-Simons theory II
In this paper, we apply ideas of Dijkgraaf and Witten [6, 32] on 3 dimensional topological quantum field theory to arithmetic curves, that is, the spectra of rings of integers in algebraic number fields. In the first three sections, we define classical ChernāSimons actions on spaces of Galois representations. In the subsequent sections, we give formulas for computation in a small class of cases and point towards some arithmetic applications
NON-OPTIMAL LEVELS OF A REDUCIBLE MOD l MODULAR REPRESENTATION
Let l >= 5 be a prime and let N be a square-free integer prime to l. For each prime p dividing N, let ap be either 1 or -1. We give sufficient criteria for the existence of a newform f of weight 2 for G0( N) such that the mod l Galois representation attached to f is reducible and Upf = apf for primes p dividing N. The main techniques used are level raising methods based on an exact sequence due to Ribet. c.2018 American Mathematical Societ
