Serre's p-adic Stark conjecture at s=1s=1

About 21 years old · traced to

Let E/QE/\mathbb Q be the number field and Gˉ\bar G its relevant Galois group, let E0={x∈E:Tr⁡E/Q(x)=0}E_0=\{x\in E:\operatorname{Tr}_{E/\mathbb Q}(x)=0\}, and let μ∞\mu_\infty and μp\mu_p be the archimedean and pp-adic regulator isomorphisms induced by logarithms on units. For ρ∈RCp(Gˉ)\rho\in R_{\mathbb C_p}(\bar G), define the leading term

Lp,S∗(1,ρ):=lim⁡s→1(s−1)⟨ρ,1⟩Lp,S(s,ρ).L_{p,S}^*(1,\rho):=\lim_{s\to1}(s-1)^{\langle\rho,1\rangle}L_{p,S}(s,\rho).

Serre's p-adic Stark conjecture. The value Lp,S∗(1,ρ)L_{p,S}^*(1,\rho) is the leading term of Lp,S(s,ρ)L_{p,S}(s,\rho) at s=1s=1, and for every isomorphism of Q[Gˉ]\mathbb Q[\bar G]-modules g:E0→OE×⊗ZQg:E_0\to\mathcal O_E^\times\otimes_{\mathbb Z}\mathbb Q,

Lp,S∗(1,ρ)detCp((Cp⊗Qpμp)∘(Cp⊗Qg))ρ=LS∗(1,ρ)detC(μ∞∘(C⊗Qg))ρ.\frac{L_{p,S}^*(1,\rho)}{\text{det}_{\mathbb C_p}((\mathbb C_p\otimes_{\mathbb Q_p}\mu_p)\circ(\mathbb C_p\otimes_{\mathbb Q}g))^\rho}=\frac{L_S^*(1,\rho)}{\text{det}_{\mathbb C}(\mu_\infty\circ(\mathbb C\otimes_{\mathbb Q}g))^\rho}.

This compares the pp-adic and complex leading terms through regulator determinants and is a pp-adic analogue of Stark-type special-value conjectures; the assertion is open in the generality stated.
