Greenberg's vanishing conjecture for the second cohomology group

Let FF be a number field, let FF_{\infty} be its cyclotomic Zp\mathbf{Z}_{p}-extension, let VV be a critical nearly ordinary Galois representation, and let A=V/TA=V/T be a torsion quotient for a GFG_F-stable lattice TT. Let Σ\Sigma be a finite set of places sufficiently large for AA, and write FΣF_{\Sigma} for the maximal extension of FF unramified outside Σ\Sigma. Greenberg's conjecture.

H2(FΣ/F,A)=0.H^{2}(F_{\Sigma}/F_{\infty},A)=0.

The vanishing removes the error term in the lower bound for the Λ\Lambda-corank of the critical Selmer group, where Λ=O[[Gal(F/F)]]\Lambda=\mathcal{O}[[\operatorname{Gal}(F_{\infty}/F)]]. The source attributes this conjecture to Greenberg; its resolution is not specified here.
