Prasanna--Venkatesh rationality conjecture for automorphic cohomology periods

Let MM be the motive associated with the elliptic curve A/FA/F, let rr be the Beilinson regulator, and let a\mathfrak{a} be the complex vector space identified with the relevant WRW_{\mathbb{R}}-invariant Betti realization. Let κδ\kappa_\delta transfer the invariant-space structure to a\mathfrak{a}, and let r2r_2 be the number of complex places of FF. For a Jacquet--Langlands lift π\pi of Π\Pi to GG, write Ω(εR,1)π\Omega^\pi_{(\varepsilon_{\mathbb R},\underline 1)} and Ω(εR,1)π\Omega^\pi_{(\varepsilon_{\mathbb R},-\underline 1)} for the lowest- and highest-degree periods, and let H^1\hat H_{-\underline 1}^\ast be the corresponding top exterior form.

Prasanna--Venkatesh conjecture. One has

r(HM1(M,Q(1)))QC=a,r\left(H^1_{\mathcal M}(M,\mathbb{Q}(1))\right)\otimes_{\mathbb{Q}}\mathbb{C}=\mathfrak{a},

and, for every εR{±1}ΣBR\varepsilon_{\mathbb R}\in\{\pm1\}^{\Sigma_B^{\mathbb R}},

Ω(εR,1)πΩ(εR,1)πir2κδ1(H^1)r2r(HM1(M,Q(1))).\frac{\Omega^\pi_{(\varepsilon_{\mathbb R},\underline 1)}}{\Omega^\pi_{(\varepsilon_{\mathbb R},-\underline 1)}}i^{r_2}\kappa_\delta^{-1}\left(\hat H_{-\underline 1}^\ast\right)\in\bigwedge^{r_2}r\left(H^1_{\mathcal M}(M,\mathbb{Q}(1))\right)^\vee.

This is a rationality prediction for the periods arising from the Prasanna--Venkatesh action on automorphic cohomology. The paper presents it as a consequence of their conjectures together with the relation between lowest- and highest-degree Eichler--Shimura morphisms, and it remains conjectural.
