The algebraicity conjecture for special values of rigid meromorphic cocycles

Let GG be the orthogonal group and let Γ\Gamma be the arithmetic subgroup under consideration. Write ss for the relevant cohomological degree, let RMC(Γ)\mathcal{RMC}(\Gamma) denote the group of rigid meromorphic cocycles, and let x\vec{x} be an oriented special point at which JJ is regular. For a finitely generated submodule ΠJQp×\Pi_J\subseteq \mathbb{Q}_p^\times, write Q×ΠJ\overline{\mathbb{Q}}^\times\Pi_J for the subgroup generated by Q×\overline{\mathbb{Q}}^\times and ΠJ\Pi_J. Algebraicity conjecture. For every JRMC(Γ)J\in\mathcal{RMC}(\Gamma), there exists a finitely generated submodule ΠJQp×\Pi_J\subseteq \mathbb{Q}_p^\times such that

J[x]Q×ΠJJ[\vec{x}]\in \overline{\mathbb{Q}}^\times\Pi_J

for every oriented special point x\vec{x} at which JJ is regular. Moreover, the rank of ΠJ\Pi_J is less than or equal to the rank of rkZHs(Γ,Z)\operatorname{rk}_{\mathbb{Z}}H^s(\Gamma,\mathbb{Z}). This is a crude algebraicity statement: special values need not themselves be algebraic, but should differ from algebraic numbers by elements of a finitely generated pp-adic module. The source does not provide evidence resolving the conjecture.
