Our result gives certain g eneralization of Kato’s proof of the main conjecture for Galois exten sions of Heisen b erg type ([Kato1]). 0. Introduction 0.1. In tro duction. The Iw asa w a m ain conjecture, which describes myste- rious relation b et we en “arithmetic” charact eristic elemen ts and “analytic” p -adic zeta fu nctions, has b een pro v en under many situati ons for ab elian ex- tensions. Ho w ev er, for non-ab elian extensions, it took many y ea rs even to formulate the main conjecture. In 2005, Coates et al. form ulated it ([CFKSV]) by us ing algebraic K -theory (esp ecially the lo calization exact sequence), and Kazuy a Kato has prov en it for certain sp ecific p -adic Lie extensions of tota lly real fields up to th e presen t ([Kato1]). Mahesh Kakd e generalized Kato’s pro of and pro v ed the main conjecture for other t yp es of extensions ([Kakde]). J ¨ urgen Ritter and Alfr ed W eiss also formulated the main conjecture in a littl e different wa y (“Equiv arian t I wasa w a theory ,” see [R-W1].), also u sing alg ebraic K -theory . In this p ap er, we prov e the Iwasa w a m ain conjecture (in the sense of [CFKSV]) of totally real fi elds for certain non-commutat ive p -extensions, using the metho d of Kato in [Kato1]. Let F b e a tota lly r eal n umber field, and let p b e a prime n um b er. Let F ∞ /F b e a totally real Lie extension con taining the cycloto mic Z p -extension F cyc of F . W e assume t hat only finitely man y primes of F ramify in F ∞ . The aim of this pap er is to pro v e the follo wing theo rem. Theorem 0.1 (=Theorem 3.1) .

Then the p -adic zeta function ξ F ∞ /F for F ∞ /F exists and the Iwasawa main c onje ctur e for F ∞ /F is true. Let us summarize ho w to pro v e this theorem. W e consider the follo wing family of su b groups of G .

In the f ollo win g, we u se the nota tion U i (resp. V i ) for o ne of the subgroups U 0 , U 1 , f U 2 , U 2 and U 3 (resp. V 0 , V 1 , f V 2 , V 2 and V 3 ). Note that eac h quotien t group U i /V i is a b elian.

Here the first map is the norm map of K -theory and the second one is the natural map induced b y Λ( U i ) → Λ( U i /V i ). On the other han d , John Coates et al. introdu ced the canonical Øre set S of Λ( G ) (See § 2 and [CFKSV]) and considered the Ø r e lo calization Λ( G ) S to formulate th e main conjecture. F or this lo calized Iwasa wa algebra, we also ha ve a homomorp h ism θ S,i : K 1 (Λ( G ) S ) Nr − → K 1 (Λ( U i ) S ) → K 1 (Λ( U i /V i ) S ) = Λ( U i /V i ) × S IW ASA W A THEOR Y FOR NON-COMMUT A TIVE p -EXTENSIONS 3 b y the same constru ction as θ i . W e denote θ = ( θ i ) i : K 1 (Λ( G )) → Y i Λ( U i /V i ) × and θ S = ( θ S,i ) i : K 1 (Λ( G ) S ) → Y i Λ( U i /V i ) × S . Then w e ha ve the follo wing prop osition. Prop osition 0.2 (Prop osition 5.4, Prop osition 6.3 and Prop osition 6.4) . Ther e exi st sub gr oups Ψ ⊆ Y i Λ( U i /V i ) × and Ψ S ⊆ Y i Λ( U i /V i ) × S which satisfy the fol lowing c onditions : (1) Image( θ S ) ⊆ Ψ S . (2) Image( θ ) = Ψ . (3) Ψ S ∩ Y i Λ( U i /V i ) × = Ψ . W e can c haracterize b oth Ψ and Ψ S as the subgroups consisting of all elemen ts whic h satisfy certain n orm relations and certain congruences (for details, see Definition 5.3 and P rop osition 6.2.). In the f ollo wing, w e denote the induced h omomorphisms b y the same symbols θ : K 1 (Λ( G )) → Ψ and θ S : K 1 (Λ( G ) S ) → Ψ S . W e call the su rjectiv e homomorphism θ the theta map f or G and the homomorphism θ S the lo c alize d theta map for G . Then we obtain the follo wing outstanding theorem whic h was fir s t ob- serv ed b y Da vid Bur ns. Theorem 0.3 (=Th eorem 3.4, Burns) .

If ( ξ i ) i is c ontaine d in Ψ S , the p - adic zeta function ξ for F ∞ /F exists as an element of K 1 (Λ( G ) S ) and satisfies the main c onje c tur e. Note that the p -adic zeta function (pseudomeasure) ξ i for F V i /F U i has b een constructed b y u sing the theory of Pierre R. Delig ne and K en neth A. Rib et ([De-Ri]), and the Iwasa wa main conjecture for F V i /F U i has b een pro ve n by And rew Wiles ([Wiles]). The cond ition for ( ξ i ) i to b e conta ined in Ψ S is essen tially giv en b y the congruences among ξ i ’s, so w e m ay reduce th e non-comm utativ e Iw asa wa main conjecture to the congruences among the ab elian p -adic zeta pseu- domeasures via the theta map. In order to study the congruences whic h ab elian p -adic zeta pseudomea- sures sh ou ld satisfy , w e u se the theory of Hilb ert mo dular forms of Del igne- Rib et ([De-Ri ]), and derive the congruences of p -adic zet a pseud omeasures (that is, the congruences of constan t terms of certain Λ-adic Hilbert mo dular 4 T A KASHI HARA forms) fr om those of the co efficient s of non-constan t terms of Λ-adic Hilb er t mo dular forms (See § 7 ). Kato and Rit ter-W eiss first used th is tec hniqu e in [Kato1] and [R-W3], and obtained many kinds of congruences among abelian p -adic zet a pseu d omeasures. Actually it is difficult to prov e all the desired congruences b y usin g only this tec hnique, therefore we u se the existence o f th e p -adic z eta function for a certain quotien t group G of G , pro ven b y Kato in [Kat o1].

The in tegral logarithmic homomorphisms are maps from m ultiplicativ e K 1 -groups to certain additiv e groups, whic h are muc h ea sier to treat (Prop osition-Definition 1.29). In § 2, we review the theory of Coates et al. ([CFKSV]), esp ecially h o w to form u late the main conjecture. W e state our main theorem precisely in § 3, a nd introd u ce Burns’ tec hn iqu e under more general situations than Theorem 0.1. W e construct the theta map for our case from § 4 to § 6. In § 4, w e construct the additiv e v ersion of th e theta map (Prop osition-Definition 4.3) by using linear represen tation theory of finite grou p s. In § 5, w e tran s late the results on the additiv e theta map p ro ve n in § 4 into the (multiplicat ive) t heta map, using the inte gral logarithmic homomorph isms. In § 6, we construct the lo calized v ersion of the theta map θ S . F or this purp ose, w e tak e the p -adic completion \ Λ(Γ) ( p ) of Λ(Γ) ( p ) , and apply the argumen ts of § 4 and § 5 to \ Λ(Γ) ( p ) [ G f ]. The condition for ab elian p -adic zeta pseud omeasures to b e cont ained in Ψ S is essen tially giv en as the congruences among them. Hence in § 7, w e study c ongruen ces whic h ab elian p -adic zeta pseudomeasur es satisfy (Pr op o- sition 7.2). W e us e the theory of D eligne and Ribet o n Hilb ert mo du lar forms ([De-Ri]).

When R is the group ring O K [ G ] of a fin ite group G o v er the in teger r in g of a n umb er field K , t he terminology “Whitehead group ” is usually used fo r the g roup Wh( O K [ G ]) = K 1 ( O K [ G ]) / ( µ ( O K ) × G ab ) , where µ ( O K ) is the m ultiplicativ e group consisting of all ro ots of 1 cont ained in O K . W e ha ve another inte rp retation of the Wh itehead group of a n a sso ciativ e ring R (Whitehead’s constru ction): let E n ( R ) b e a su bgroup of GL n ( R ) generated b y all “elemen tary m atrices,” that is, E n ( R ) = h I n + r E ij | 1 ≤ i 6 = j ≤ n, r ∈ R i where E ij =        j 0 0 · · · 0 i 0 . . . 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 · · · · · · 0        .

Th e theta map, wh ic h we will construct in the follo wing sections, is essen tially a family of n orm maps in algebraic K -t heory . 1 So let us review the construction and prop erties of norm maps of K -groups.

W e often u se norm maps in the follo win g situation: let G b e a group and H b e its subgroup of finite ind ex. Th en w e h a v e an inclusion of group rings Z p [ H ] → Z p [ G ]. Hence w e obtain a norm map Nr Z p [ G ] / Z p [ H ] : K i ( Z p [ G ]) − → K i ( Z p [ H ]) ( i = 0 , 1) . If G is a pro-finite group and H is its op en subgroup, w e also obtain Nr Λ( G ) / Λ( H ) b y the same constru ction.

Let G b e a compact p -adic Lie group con taining a normal closed sub- group H whic h satisfies G/H ∼ = Z p , and let Λ( G ) b e its Iwa saw a algebra. In the non-commuta tive Iwasa wa theory of [CFKSV], c haracteristic elements (the “arithmetic” p -adic zeta fun ctions) are defin ed as elemen ts of White- head groups of certain Ør e lo calization of Λ( G ) by using the lo calization exact sequence. W e fir st d efine the c anonic al Ør e set S for the group G in tro du ced in [CFKSV] § 2. Then for ev ery elemen t [ C ] of the relativ e K 0 - group K 0 (Λ( G ) , Λ( G ) S ) (in the follo wing, we regard K 0 (Λ( G ) , Λ( G ) S ) as the Grothendiec k group of the category of b ounded complexes of fi nitely gen- erated pro jectiv e left Λ( G )-mod ules wh ose cohomolog ies are of S -torsion), w e defin e a char acteristic element of [ C ] as an element of K 1 (Λ( G ) S ).

S upp ose that there exists a normal closed su bgroup H of G wh ic h satisfies G/H ∼ = Γ, wher e Γ is a comm u tativ e p -adic Lie group isomorphic to Z p (See § 0. 3). In the follo wing, we fix suc h a s u bgroup H . Prop osition-Definition 2.1 (Th e canonical Øre set) . L e t G and H b e as ab ove. Then S = { f ∈ Λ( G ) | Λ( G ) / Λ( G ) f is finitely gener ate d as a left Λ( H ) -mo dule } is a left and right Ør e set ( Se e Definition 1.10 ) . W e ca ll this S the c anonic al Ør e set for the gr oup G . 3 Since S is a left and right Ør e set, the left lo calization and the right lo calizat ion of Λ( G ) with r esp ect to S are canonically isomorp hic to eac h other b y Corollary 1.1 4. Th erefore w e ma y identify these tw o lo calizations. Because of this reason, w e denote b y Λ( G ) S the left (or righ t) lo calization of Λ( G ) with resp ect to S . The canonical Øre sets and th eir p rop erties are discus s ed w ell in [CFKSV ], § 2. Here w e use the follo wing t wo pr op erties: Prop osition 2.2.

Also n ote that b y Prop osition 2.2 (2), w e ma y consider the lo calizatio n sequen ce for the Øre lo calizati on Λ( G ) → Λ( G ) S (Theorem 1. 22 ). Remark 2.3. Assume that G has no p -torsion element s. In this case we often use S ∗ = [ n ≥ 0 p n S in place of S , as is remarked in [CFKSV]. W e may iden tify K 0 (Λ( G ) , Λ( G ) S ∗ ) with K 0 ( M S ∗ (Λ( G ))) where M S ∗ (Λ( G )) is the categ ory of finitely generated left S ∗ -torsion Λ( G )-modu les. 3 Since the defin ition of S dep ends on th e subgroup H , we should call S the c anonic al Ør e set for ( G, H ). But by abuse of notation, w e often call S the canonical Ø re set for G when the su b group H is fixed . 20 T A KASHI HARA But in our ca se (See § 3), G has man y p -torsion elemen ts. Therefore w e ha v e to treat derived categories of co mp lexes of finitely generated mo dules. No w let us consider the lo calization exact sequence (T h eorem 1.22) for Λ( G ) → Λ( G ) S : (2.1) K 1 (Λ( G )) → K 1 (Λ( G ) S ) ∂ − → K 0 (Λ( G ) , Λ( G ) S ) → K 0 (Λ( G )) → K 0 (Λ( G ) S ) . Prop osition 2.4. The c onne cting homom orphism ∂ in ( 2.1 ) is surje ctiv e. Therefore, for an arbitrary elemen t [ C ] ∈ K 0 (Λ( G ) , Λ( G ) S ), there exists an el ement f ∈ K 1 (Λ( G ) S ) whic h satisfies ∂ ( f ) = − [ C ]. Definition 2.5 (Characteristic elemen t) . Let [ C ] ∈ K 0 (Λ( G ) , Λ( G ) S ). W e call an element f of K 1 (Λ( G ) S ) a char acteristic element of [ C ] if f satisfies ∂ ( f ) = − [ C ]. Remark 2 .6. By the lo calization exact sequence, c haracteristic elemen ts of [ C ] a re determined up t o multiplica tion by elemen ts of K 1 (Λ( G )). Pr o of of Pr op osition 2.4. W e ma y pro ve this prop osition by the almost same argumen t as t he pro of o f Prop osition 3.4 i n [CFKSV]. Though w e assume that G h as no p -torsion el ements in t he pro of of Prop o- sition 3.4 in [CFKS V], this assumption is used only to a v oid treating com- plexes directl y (this p oint is also remarked in [CFKSV]). F or eac h complex C = C · , its canonical image in K 0 (Λ( G )) is X i ∈ Z ( − 1) i [ C i ]. By using this fact and translating λ, τ , ε in [CFKSV] appr opriately , w e may apply their proof of Prop osition 3.4 in [CFKSV] to the case w here G has p -torsion elemen ts.  Example 2.7. Let us consider the classical Iw asa wa Z p -extension case: G = Γ , H = { 1 } and Λ(Γ) ∼ = Z p [[ T ]]; t 7→ 1 + T . In t his case, b y p -adic W eierstrass’ pr eparation theorem, we ha ve f ( T ) = u ( T ) p n g ( T ) for an arbitrary non-zero elemen t f ( T ) ∈ Z p [[ T ]], where u ( T ) ∈ Z p [[ T ]] × , n ∈ Z ≥ 0 , and g ∈ Z p [ T ] is a distinguished p olynomial. Hence Λ(Γ) / Λ(Γ) f is fi nitely generated o v er Z p if and only if p ∤ f (or equiv alent ly n = 0). Therefore the c anonical Øre set S is Λ(Γ) \ p Λ(Γ). Since Γ has no p -torsion elemen ts, w e ma y consider th e Ø r e set S ∗ as in Remark 2.3. It is easy to see that in this case S ∗ is the subset of Λ(Γ) consisting of all non-zero elemen ts. Therefore Λ(Γ) S ∗ coincides with th e fractional field F rac(Λ(Γ)). F urthermore, since Λ( Γ) is local and comm utativ e, w e ha ve K 1 (Λ(Γ)) = Λ(Γ) × and K 1 (Λ(Γ) S ∗ ) = F rac(Λ(Γ)) × . Hence the lo calization exact sequence is d escrib ed a s follo ws: Λ(Γ) × → F rac(Λ(Γ)) × ∂ − → K 0 ( M tor (Λ(Γ))) → 0 , where M tor (Λ(Γ)) is the category of all fi n itely generated torsion Λ(Γ)- mo dules. Th e connecting homomorp hism ∂ is characte rized by ∂ ( f ) = [Λ(Γ) / Λ(Γ) f ] for f ∈ Λ(Γ) \ { 0 } in this (ab elian) ca se.

Sin ce the image of ev ery pseudo-null Λ(Γ)-mo du le in K 0 ( M tor (Λ(Γ))) v anishes (See [Sc h -V en]), w e ha v e [ M ] = N X i =1 [Λ(Γ) / Λ(Γ) f i ] .

Note that H 0 ( C ) = Z p , H − 1 ( C ) = Gal( M Σ /F ∞ ) where M Σ is the max- imal ab elian p ro- p extension of F ∞ unramified outside Σ, and H n ( C ) = 0 for n 6 = 0 , − 1. W e denote Ga l( M Σ /F ∞ ) b y X Σ ( F ∞ /F ). No w set H = Ga l( F ∞ /F cyc ) and Γ = Gal( F cyc /F ) ∼ = Z p . Then if [ C ] is an element of K 0 (Λ( G ) , Λ( G ) S ), we can apply the results of § 2.1 to [ C ] an d obtain a char acteristic element for F ∞ /F as a charact eristic e lement of [ C ]. Conjecture 2.9. [ C ] is always an element of K 0 (Λ( G ) , Λ( G ) S ) . In other wor ds, X Σ ( F ∞ /F ) is of S -torsion. 4 Since the Galois extension we wi ll consider has p -torsion elements , w e need to weak en the conditions in [CFKSV].

Since J ( n ) i is an ideal, ( J ( n ) i ) 2 ⊆ J ( n ) i . Therefore 1 + J ( n ) i is closed under m ultiplication. It is easy to calc ulate that h 2 δ = ph δ and h 2 ζ = ph ζ . Then for e J 2 ( n ) , J ( n ) 2 and J ( n ) 3 , w e ha ve ( J ( n ) i ) 2 = pJ ( n ) i .

Thus w e ha v e ( J ( n ) 1 ) 3 = p ( J ( n ) 1 ) 2 ⊆ pJ ( n ) 1 . Set N = 3 for i = 1 and N = 2 for other i . • Th e exi stence of in v erse elemen ts.

Th er efore, (5.3) (1 + y ) − 1 = X m ≥ 0 ( − 1) m y m con v erges in J ( n ) i p -adically . • Conv ergence of logarithms.

Th us the logarithm log (1 + y ) = P m ≥ 1 ( − 1) m − 1 ( y m /m ) con v erges p -adically in J ( n ) i . Since n ( J ( n ) i ) m o N = p m ( J ( n ) i ) m ( N − 1) ⊆ p m ( J ( n ) i ) m , we may a lso sho w that 1 +  J ( n ) i  m is a sub group o f 1 + J ( n ) i and log  1 +  J ( n ) i  m  ⊆  J ( n ) i  m for ev ery m ≥ 1 , b y the same argument as ab o ve. • Logarithmic isomorphisms. First note that p -adic top ology and J ( n ) i -adic top ology are th e same on J ( n ) i : this is b ecause p m +1 J ( n ) i ⊆ ( J ( n ) i ) m + N − 1 ⊆ p m J ( n ) i for eve ry m ≥ 1. Since J ( n ) i is p -adically complete, it is also J ( n ) i - adically c omplete. Therefore t o sho w that the logarithm induces an isomorphism 1 + J ( n ) i ≃ − → J ( n ) i , it i s sufficien t to s h o w t hat it induces an isomo rp hism log : (1 + ( J ( n ) i ) m ) / (1 + ( J ( n ) i ) m +1 ) ≃ − → ( J ( n ) i ) m / ( J ( n ) i ) m +1 ; 1 + y 7→ y for ea ch m ≥ 1, and to pro ve this, it suffices to show that y p k /p k ∈  J ( n ) i  m +1 for ev ery 1 + y ∈ 1 +  J ( n ) i  m and k ≥ 1 .

W e tak e the congru ence ξ 1 ≡ ϕ ( ξ 0 )mo d I S, 1 as an example.

By r estricting f 1 to the Hilb ert mo d ular v ariet y of F em b edded as the diagonal in th e Hilb ert mo dular v ariet y of F U 1 , we obtain a Λ( U 1 /V 1 )-adic F -Hilb ert mo du lar form (7.1) g 1 = ξ 1 2 r p + X ( a ,x ) ∈ P 1  F V 1 /F U 1 a  q T r F U 1 /F ( x ) where r is [ F : Q ].

One observes that there exits a bijectio n P 0 ∼ − → P ′ 1 ; ( b , y ) 7→ ( a , x ) where a = b O F U 1 and x = y .

One can easily c h ec k that ξ = uf 74 T A KASHI HARA satisfies the interp olating prop erties of the p -adic zeta function for F ∞ /F (Definition 2.14) and also satisfies ∂ ( ξ ) = − [ C ].
