The canonical-period Tamagawa conjecture for Kurihara numbers

Let fSk(Γ0(N))f\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N)) be a newform with k2k\ge 2 and p3p\ge 3, with pNp\nmid N and ρf\rho_f of large image. Suppose that ff is ordinary at pp and pp-distinguished, or that 2kp12\le k\le p-1. Let δ~can,\widetilde{\boldsymbol{\delta}}^{\mathrm{can},\dagger} be the collection of Kurihara numbers for ff at s=k/2s=k/2, normalized by canonical periods. The canonical-period Tamagawa conjecture. One should have

()(δ~can,)=NlengthO(Hur1(Q,Wf)Hf1(Q,Wf)).\partial^{(\infty)}(\widetilde{\boldsymbol{\delta}}^{\mathrm{can},\dagger})=\sum_{\ell\mid N}\operatorname{length}_{\mathcal O}\left(\frac{\mathrm{H}^1_{\mathrm{ur}}(\mathbb{Q}_\ell,W_f^\dagger)}{\mathrm{H}^1_f(\mathbb{Q}_\ell,W_f^\dagger)}\right).

This is a refined Tamagawa-number prediction, comparing an analytic fudge factor with local Tamagawa contributions away from pp. The paper presents it as a conjecture because precise control of the relevant integral comparison maps is unavailable in this setting.
