On Kummer characters arising from Galois actions on the pro-p fundamental groups of once-punctured CM elliptic curves
摘要
In this paper, we study certain characters arising from the Galois actions on the pro-p geometric fundamental groups of once-punctured CM elliptic curves. These characters may be regarded as analogues of the Soulé characters, which arise from the Galois action associated to the thrice-punctured projective line. We study various arithmetic assumptions under which such characters are nontrivial or even surjective.
