Non-degeneracy conjecture for the Gillet–Soulé height pairing

Let $K$ 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 $F_\infty$ -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.

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