Abstract
We study the Selmer variety associated to a canonical quotient of the -pro-unipotent fundamental group of a smooth projective curve of genus at least two defined over whose Jacobian decomposes into a product of abelian varieties with complex multiplication. Elementary multivariable Iwasawa theory is used to prove bounds for the dimension of the Selmer variety, which, in turn, leads to a new proof of finiteness of rational points on such curves.
