Vanishing of the 4μ44\mu4-invariant after totally real base change

Let FF be a totally real number field, let KK be a quadratic imaginary extension of FF, let FF' be a finite totally real extension of FF, and let fFf_{F'} be a Hilbert modular form over FF' that is ordinary at each place of FF' above pp. 4μ44\mu4-vanishing conjecture. One has

μ(Lp(FK,fF))=0.\mu\bigl(L_p(F'K_\infty,f_{F'})\bigr)=0.

This predicts the absence of a nontrivial 4p44p4-power factor in the anticyclotomic pp-adic LL-function after arbitrary finite totally real base change; the paper places it in relation to a preceding 4μ44\mu4-vanishing corollary, but the general assertion remains conjectural in the supplied text.
