Math 402

First, we will review classical Iwasawa theory for number fields. Then a description of how to develop an analogous theory for elliptic curves will be given. Next, we'll use these ideas to provide an application to the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture in rank zero. Finally, three explicit examples will be discussed.
