The main conjecture for the noncommutative Selmer group of an elliptic curve

Let E/QE/\mathbb Q be an elliptic curve, let p5p\geq5 be a prime at which EE has good ordinary reduction, and put F=Q(Ep)F_{\infty}=\mathbb Q(E_{p^{\infty}}). Let G=Gal(F/Q)G=\operatorname{Gal}(F_{\infty}/\mathbb Q) and H=Gal(F/Qcyc)H=\operatorname{Gal}(F_{\infty}/\mathbb Q^{\rm cyc}). Assume that X(E/F)MH(G)X(E/F_{\infty})\in\mathfrak M_H(G), and grant the p-adic LL-function conjecture above. A characteristic element of X(E/F)X(E/F_{\infty}) is an element of K1(Λ(G)S)K_1(\Lambda(G)_{S^*}) representing its class in the relevant relative KK-group.

The main conjecture. The p-adic LL-function LEK1(Λ(G)S){\cal L}_E\in K_1(\Lambda(G)_{S^*}) is a characteristic element of X(E/F)X(E/F_{\infty}).

This is the proposed noncommutative main conjecture, with the existence and interpolation property of LE{\cal L}_E taken from the preceding conjecture. The paper says that it has deep arithmetic consequences but gives no proof in the non-CM setting.
