The period-lattice conjecture for Hilbert modular abelian varieties
The period-lattice conjecture for Hilbert modular abelian varieties
Let be a Hilbert newform of parallel weight over the totally real field , with Hecke field of degree . Let be a sign vector corresponding to the real embedding , and let be the two-dimensional -subspace generated by the period vectors associated with and the all-positive sign. A lattice is a discrete subgroup spanning over the relevant real vector space. Period-lattice conjecture. For every choice of lattice , there is an isomorphism of complex abelian varieties
where is the abelian variety predicted by the Eichler–Shimura conjecture, under the embedding corresponding to . This conjecture would identify the complex tori constructed from the Hilbert modular periods with the expected abelian variety, thereby justifying the moduli-point construction. The source gives no evidence of a resolution.
