Bertolini–Darmon–Mazur conjecture on derived Selmer dimensions

Let FF be a quadratic imaginary field, let FF_\infty be its anticyclotomic Zp\mathbf Z_p-extension, and let A=E×QFA=E\times_{\mathbf Q}F for an elliptic curve E/QE/\mathbf Q satisfying the Heegner hypothesis that all primes of bad reduction split in FF. Define

s+=dimQpSp(1)(A/F)+,s=dimQpSp(1)(A/F).s^+=\dim_{\mathbf Q_p}S_p^{(1)}(A/F)^+,\qquad s^-=\dim_{\mathbf Q_p}S_p^{(1)}(A/F)^-.

Bertolini–Darmon–Mazur conjecture. In this situation,

dimQpSp(2)(A/F)=s+s,dimQpSp(3)(A/F)=1.\dim_{\mathbf Q_p}S_p^{(2)}(A/F)=|s^+-s^-|,\qquad \dim_{\mathbf Q_p}S_p^{(3)}(A/F)=1.

In the stated anticyclotomic setting, it is known that e=1e_\infty=1, so the first derived height pairing is degenerate; the conjecture predicts the precise dimensions of the next derived Selmer groups, beyond the lower bound arising from complex conjugation.
