Abstract

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\Q$ with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field $K$. We apply an elliptic unit version of Ichimura–Sumida criterion for the $\Z_p$-extension $F_\infty/F$ associated to $E$ and try to determine the characteristic polynomial of the maximal unramified abelian $p$-extension of $F_\infty$.
