Abstract

Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field k and F a finite Galois extension of k. Let p be a prime number. Then under certain not-too-stringent conditions on A and F, we investigate the explicit Galois structure of the p-primary Selmer group of A over F. We also use the results so obtained to derive new bounds on the growth of the Selmer rank of A over extensions of k.
