The Euler-factor conjecture for Calabi–Yau differential operators

Let L\mathcal{L} be a Calabi–Yau operator arising as a Picard–Fuchs operator for a Calabi–Yau motive XφX_\varphi. Let p5p\geq5, and let φ\varphi be such that D(Teich(φ))1D(\operatorname{Teich}(\varphi))^{-1} is defined in Qp\mathbb{Q}_p and ordp(D(Teich(φ)))0\operatorname{ord}_p(D(\operatorname{Teich}(\varphi)))\leq0. For sufficiently large M(L,p)M(\mathcal{L},p), the Euler-factor conjecture. The Euler factor Ep(b1)(Xφ,T)E_p^{(b-1)}(X_\varphi,T) equals the polynomial Rp(b1)(L,T)R_p^{(b-1)}(\mathcal{L},T).

The claim identifies the polynomial obtained from the truncated pp-adic computation with the Euler factor of the associated motive under the stated integrality and nonsingularity conditions. Its resolution is not established in the supplied text.
