p-adic L-functions and Selmer varieties associated to elliptic curves with complex multiplication

Abstract

We show how non-vanishing of p-adic L functions controls the dimensions of Selmer varieties associated to the complement of the origin in an elliptic curve with CM. As a corollary, one obtains a π1-proof of the theorem of Siegel for such curves.
