Nonvanishing conjecture for the relevant p-adic L-functions

Let E/KE/K be the elliptic-curve setting of the paper, with π\pi and πˉ\bar\pi denoting the relevant conjugate primes and χ\chi and χˉ\bar\chi the corresponding Galois characters. Consider the pp-adic LL-functions attached to the π\pi-power- and πˉ\bar\pi-power-torsion of E/KE/K.

Nonvanishing conjecture for the relevant p-adic L-functions. The pp-adic LL-function attached to the π\pi-power-torsion does not vanish at negative powers of χ\chi, and the one attached to the πˉ\bar\pi-power-torsion does not vanish at negative powers of χˉ\bar\chi.

This conjectural nonvanishing is assumed, together with the Tate–Shafarevich conjecture, in the application of the Chabauty–Kim method; the source describes it as folklore and gives no resolution.
