Non-degeneracy conjecture for the Gillet–Soulé height pairing

About 4 years old · traced to

Let KK be a number field and let H^1_\operatorname{mot}(K,\mathcal{M})_\infty=H^1_\operatorname{mot}(K,\mathcal{M})\otimes_FF_\infty. The Gillet–Soulé height pairing is the F∞F_\infty-bilinear map

\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle_{\operatorname{GS},\infty}:H^1_\operatorname{mot}(K,\mathcal{M})_\infty\times H^1_\operatorname{mot}(K,\mathcal{M})_\infty\longrightarrow F_\infty.

Height non-degeneracy conjecture. The pairing ⟨⋅,⋅⟩GS⁡,∞\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle_{\operatorname{GS},\infty} is non-degenerate. The conjecture is motivated by arithmetic analogues of the standard conjectures and by conjectures of Beilinson and Bloch on height pairings.

  1. Non-degeneracy conjecture for the Gillet–Soulé height pairing

    Let M\mathcal{M} be the motive associated with the modular form, and let Hmot⁡1(Q,M)H^1_{\operatorname{mot}}(\mathbb{Q},\mathcal{M}) be its motivic cohomology. For a fixed Q\mathbb{Q}-basis B\mathscr{B}, let Reg⁡B(M)\operatorname{Reg}_{\mathscr{B}}(\mathcal{M}) denote the determinant of the Gillet–Soulé height pairing.

    Gillet–Soulé non-degeneracy conjecture. The Gillet–Soulé height pairing is non-degenerate.

    This is one of the three conjectural inputs assumed before the paper's final fractional-ideal formula. The excerpt gives no resolution status.
