Elliptic curves with rank one and nontrivial 2-part of Tate Shafarevich groups over the Z2-extension of Q

Abstract

Let Q∞ be the cyclotomic Z2-extension over Q. For each integer n≥1, let Qn denote the unique subfield in Q∞ such that [Q∞:Q]=2n. Denote by Z2[ Gal(Qn/Q)] the group ring of Gal(Q∞/Q). For any elliptic curve defined over Q with odd conductor, the Mazur-Tate modular element associated with the curve is an element of Z2[ Gal(Qn/Q)]. In this paper, for each n, we study the 2-adic properties of Mazur-Tate modular elements associated with quadratic twists of elliptic curves, under specializations by finite order characters of Gal(Qn/Q). Using the congruence properties of Heegner points and an equivariant version of the Coates-Wiles theorem, we construct an elliptic curve E/Q and a family of quadratic twists E(m) of E such that each E(m) has both analytic and algebraic rank one over Q∞, and whose Tate-Shafarevich group is infinite over Q∞.
