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 id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00025983 ppn_swb: 1653764333 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-259833 date_accepted: 2017-12-08 advisor: HASH(0x55e83b36a6d8) language: eng bibsort: FUTTERERMIAPADICLFUN2019 full_text_status: public citation: Fütterer, Michael (2019) A p-adic L-function with canonical motivic periods for families of modular forms.
