title: A p-adic L-function with canonical motivic periods for families of modular forms creator: Fütterer, Michael subject: ddc-510 subject: 510 Mathematics description: We prove a version of the conjecture of Fukaya and Kato concerning the existence of p-adic L-functions for motives in the case of certain Hida families of modular forms and for commutative towers of fields, the novelty being the exact accordance with the conjectural interpolation formula. To do so, we first calculate the expressions in their conjectural formula as explicitly as possible and compare the result to the interpolation formula of the p-adic L-function constructed by Kitagawa. Here we use Eichler- Shimura isomorphisms to relate the periods appearing in Fukaya’s and Kato’s formula to the error terms appearing in Kitagawa’s formula, which are defined in terms of modular symbols. Under a technical hypothesis on the Hida family we show that the conjectural interpolation formula differs from Kitagawa’s one only by a unit in the Iwasawa algebra, so we find a p-adic L-function having the interpolation behaviour predicted by Fukaya and Kato (up to a non-constant sign). date: 2019 type: Dissertation type: info:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesis type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserver/25983/1/diss.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/heidok.00025983 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-259833 identifier: Fütterer, Michael (2019) A p-adic L-function with canonical motivic periods for families of modular forms.
