Generalized Yoshida conjecture for maximal CM subfields

Let KK be a finite abelian extension of a totally real field FF containing a CM-subfield, and let KCMK_{\mathrm{CM}} be its maximal CM-subfield. Put G:=Gal(K/F)G:=\operatorname{Gal}(K/F), and let fK/Ff0\mathfrak f_{K/F}\mid\mathfrak f_0 and Artf0\operatorname{Art}_{\mathfrak f_0} be as defined in the associated ray-class construction. For each cc, let X(c)X(c) be Yoshida's invariant, and let pKCMp_{K_{\mathrm{CM}}} be Shimura's period symbol, with restriction τKCM\tau|_{K_{\mathrm{CM}}} and the transfer map Inf1\operatorname{Inf}^{-1}. The generalized Yoshida conjecture. For every τG\tau\in G,

cArtf01(τ)exp(X(c))modQ×=πζf0(0,τ)pKCM(τKCM,Inf1(σGζf0(0,σ)σ)).\prod_{c\in\operatorname{Art}_{\mathfrak f_0}^{-1}(\tau)}\exp(X(c))\bmod\overline{\mathbb Q}^{\times}=\pi^{\zeta_{\mathfrak f_0}(0,\tau)}p_{K_{\mathrm{CM}}}\left(\tau|_{K_{\mathrm{CM}}},\operatorname{Inf}^{-1}\left(\sum_{\sigma\in G}\zeta_{\mathfrak f_0}(0,\sigma)\sigma\right)\right).

This extends Yoshida's CM-period conjecture from CM-fields to abelian extensions having a CM-subfield. It is motivated by the equivalent formulation of the original conjecture and remains conjectural in the general setting.
