1.1. Work of Lei–Ponsinet
Let be an odd prime, be a number field and be the cyclotomic -extension of . Let where . Let be an abelian variety over . Suppose has good ordinary reduction at the primes of above . Then it is conjectured by Mazur [1] that the classical -primary Selmer group is cotorsion as a -module (follows by the work of Kato [2] and Rohrlich [3] for elliptic curves defined over and abelian). Under this assumption Mazur's control theorem [1] on these classical -primary Selmer groups implies that the Mordell–Weil rank is bounded independently of . However, this technique only works under the ordinary assumption. If the abelian variety has supersingular reduction at one of the primes above , then the is not cotorsion and Mazur's control theorem will not hold. Now suppose that is unramified in and has supersingular reduction at all primes of above . Then Büyükboduk and Lei [4] constructed signed Selmer groups for ; these generalize plus and minus Selmer groups of Kobayashi [5] for and Sprung's -Selmer groups for [6]. The former are proved to be cotorsion for elliptic curves over and the latter are conjectured to be cotorsion as well. In the case when , at least one of the -Selmer groups is known to be cotorsion [6]. In the case of , Kobayashi also proved an analogue of the control theorem for -Selmer groups. Combined, those results lead to a bound independent of for the growth of the rank for supersingular elliptic curves [5, Corollary 10.2]. Under the assumption that the signed Selmer groups of Büyükboduk and Lei are cotorsion, in [7], Lei and Ponsinet give an explicit sufficient condition in terms of Coleman maps attached to which ensures that the rank of the Mordell–Weil group of the dual abelian variety stays bounded as varies. Further they show that when the Frobenius operator on the Dieudonné module at can be expressed as certain block anti-diagonal matrix (cf. [7, Section 3.2.1]) then their explicit condition is satisfied; hence their result applies to abelian varieties of -type.
1.2. Work of Lei–Sprung
In [8] (see also [9] for a less technical exposition), Lei and Sprung consider the special case of elliptic curves defined over and the base field , an imaginary quadratic field in which splits. The Mordell–Weil rank of at the -th layer of a -extension of is know to be of the form where is an integer called the growth number. When has ordinary reduction at , this growth number is equal to for the cyclotomic -extension of by the works of Kato and Rohrlich. But works of [10], [11], [12], [13] and [14] exhibit cases where along the anticyclotomic extension of when the root number of is as it is predicted by Mazur's growth number conjecture [15, §18, p.201]. In the supersingular case, [16] also finds under some assumptions. So along the anticyclotomic tower, the Mordell–Weil rank may be unbounded. Let be the -extension of obtained as a compositum of the cyclotomic and the anticyclotomic extension of . Let be a subfield of such that . Suppose the elliptic curve has good supersingular reduction at , Lei and Sprung constructed four -Selmer groups for elliptic curves over the -extension , generalizing works of Kim for the case [17]. Assume that is an elliptic curve over with conductor prime to and the class number of is coprime to . When , but , suppose that one of the four -Selmer groups defined by Kim [17] is cotorsion. Then, Lei and Sprung show that . In the case , they show that under the assumption that all of the four -Selmer groups they defined are cotorsion.
1.3. Our work in this article
Kazim Büyükboduk and Antonio Lei jointly started a program to generalize the plus/minus theory of Kobayashi and Pollack in the case of motives crystalline at . This led to their series of joint papers [4], [18] and [19]. Note that [4] and [18] (including the work of Lei–Ponsinet mentioned above) are over the cyclotomic -extension and [19] is for representations coming from modular forms. In this paper our results add to that program giving us results for abelian varieties over a maximal abelian pro- extension of a number field that is unramified outside .
We restrict ourselves to the case of imaginary quadratic field where splits. But instead of working with elliptic curves we work with abelian varieties with supersingular reduction at both primes above . In this case, we have at our disposal the signed Selmer groups of Büyükboduk and Lei [4] which are defined only over the cyclotomic extension of . The objectives in our paper are threefold. We
-
•
define multi-signed Selmer groups for over the -extension . In order to achieve this we construct multi-signed Coleman maps attached to the abelian variety . This gives us the local condition at primes above .
-
•
give an explicit sufficient condition in terms of Coleman maps (hypothesis (H-large)) mentioned in the text) attached to which ensures that the Mordell–Weil rank is bounded by a function which is along the tower (see theorem 5.5).
-
•
show that this explicit condition (H-large) is satisfied when the Frobenius on the Dieudonné module at primes above can be expressed in a certain block diagonal form. This special case can be thought of as an analogue for the case for supersingular elliptic curves and happens for abelian varieties of the -type (see section 4.3). When our signed Selmer groups for are cotorsion, we hence deduce (see theorem 5.6).
In order to state the main results more precisely, let us introduce some more notation first. Let be the dual abelian variety and let be the multi-signed Selmer group attached to constructed in section 3.3. Let denote the Pontryagin dual
Let be the completed group ring . Then, the first of our main theorems is the following:
Theorem A (Theorem 5.5).
Suppose that is a torsion -module for some and that hypothesis (H-large) is satisfied. We have
To state our next theorem, we need to introduce some further notation. Let be the Tate module of . Suppose that where and are prime ideals of . Let (reps. ) be the Dieudonné module of seen as a representation of (resp. ). These modules are naturally equipped with an action of a Frobenius operator. Let and be the matrices defined in section 2.2 arising from the Frobenius action on and respectively.
Theorem B (Theorem 5.6).
Suppose and are block anti-diagonal matrices and the Pontryagin dual of the Selmer groups for are all -torsion. Then
The Selmer groups appearing in theorem B are all multi-signed Selmer groups for particular choices of the indexing set (see the discussion before proposition 4.14).
Let the abelian variety be of dimension and such that and are block anti-diagonal. The indexing set where and are subsets of such that . Note that the Selmer groups depend not only on the indexing set but also on the choice of Hodge-compatible bases of the Dieudonné modules and (see section 3.3 and remark 3.4). This is also the case for the multi-signed Selmer groups defined in [4] and [7] for supersingular abelian varieties in the cyclotomic case. When , upon fixing a Hodge-compatible bases, the indexing set has cardinality . But all of these multi-signed Selmer groups are not canonically defined. Defining multi-signed Selmer groups canonically is crucial in framing corresponding Iwasawa main conjectures relating our multi-signed Selmer groups to canonically defined -adic -functions in the analytic side. A new key observation made in this paper is that the specific four multi-signed Selmer groups mentioned in theorem B are independent of the choice of the Hodge-compatible bases and hence canonically defined (see proposition 4.18). 111We thank David Loeffler for suggesting this to us. Therefore, this gives a strong incentive for regarding these particular multi-signed choices as ``more fundamental and arithmetically interesting" than the other multi-signed Selmer groups. (In the case of elliptic curves over the -extension , they correspond to the usual four signed Selmer groups of Lei and Sprung, generalizing four signed Selmer groups of Kim when .) Apart from these four multi-signed Selmer groups, we also show that the two other multi-signed Selmer groups corresponding to the choices and are also canonically defined and independent of the choice of Hodge-compatible bases (see proposition 4.18). These two Selmer groups should correspond to BDP type -adic -functions (see section 6).
We now give an outline of the paper. In section 2, we introduce our notations and recall the basic preliminaries on -adic Hodge theory that we will need throughout our article. The definition of multi-signed Selmer groups and Coleman maps are given in section 3. In section 4, under the hypothesis (H-large), we use multi-signed Coleman maps and logarithmic matrices to study the growth of
where is the Bloch-Kato local condition defined using the kernel of the dual exponential map. To achieve this, we generalized the work of [7] to the setting of -extensions by using inputs from [8]. We find that . In section 5, we consider the short exact sequence
where is the Pontryagin dual of the classical -Selmer group of over , is the Pontryagin dual of the fine Selmer group of and
Under the assumption that at least one of the Selmer groups is -cotorsion, we show that is also . Using the natural surjection , we deduce that the growth of is at most . We are then able to conclude that the Mordell-Weil rank of is along .
One expects that there should be analytic analogues of all of the above, corresponding to our (algebraic) results under appropriate Iwasawa main conjectures. In section 6, written by Chris Williams, we give some speculative remarks on the shape of the analytic theory.
The above concludes the outline. Now, before going to the next section, we would like to make further remarks. In this paper we stick to the case of -extension of an imaginary quadratic field instead of working more generally over -extension of a number field. Our guess is that the growth condition will be , but we will need to make the hypotheses that the multi-signed Selmer groups are cotorsion over the corresponding Iwasawa algebra. Such hypotheses are currently only known for elliptic curves under non-vanishing of signed -adic -functions over -extension of an imaginary quadratic field (see remark 4.3). The analytic side for general abelian varieties are even more mysterious for (see section 6), and in this case (the Euler system machinery is also unavailable) as per our knowledge, there are currently no results in the literature towards cotorsion-ness of signed Selmer groups. Even if we assume that the signed Selmer groups are cotorsion, the present techniques in this paper will not generalize verbatim for . We also faced technical difficulty generalizing (4.5) for general -extensions.

2.2. -adic Hodge Theory
For this subsection only, let be any number field where all primes above are unramified. Note that for our purpose, will be totally split in and so we can take in the following discussion where is a prime of above . Denote by the ring of integers of and let be the cyclotomic character. Let be a motive defined over in the sense of [20] and its -adic realization. Let be a -stable -lattice inside . We shall denote by the cartier dual of and by the Tate dual of . Suppose that
(H.crys) is crystalline at all the primes above in .
For simplicity, suppose that the dimension of over is even. This will be the case for example when the motive is the motive associated to an abelian variety. Let and let . Let be a prime above in and let be where is the crystalline period ring defined by Fontaine. It admits the structure of a filtered -module. Let where is seen as a formal variable equipped with a semilinear action by a Frobenius which acts as the absolute Frobenius on and on by , and with an action of given by . Let be the Wach module of whose existence and properties are shown in [21, Proposition 2.1.1]. It is a free -module of rank . Furthermore, the quotient is identified with a -lattice of . We denote by this -lattice. It is equipped with a filtration of -modules and a Frobenius operator . If we suppose that

3. Multi-Signed Selmer groups over -extension
In this section, we define multi-signed Selmer groups for motives satisfying (H.crys), (H.HT), (H.Frob) and (H.P) over -extension of an imaginary quadratic field generalizing an earlier work of Büyükboduk and Lei [19].
Let be an imaginary quadratic field where splits. We write and for the cyclotomic and anticyclotomic -extensions contained in respectively.
3.1. Yager module
Let be a finite unramified extension. For , define
Let be the image of in . In [22, Section 3.2], it is shown that there is an isomorphism of -modules
where the inverse limit is taken with respect to the trace maps on the left and the projection maps for on the right. By [22, Proposition 3.2], is a free -module of rank one, thus the Yager module is also free of rank one over .
3.2. Interpolation property of Loeffler–Zerbes' big logarithm map
Let be a basis of the Yager module . Recall that is a -stable -lattice inside . Let be the two-variable big logarithm map of Loeffler–Zerbes [22]
It is a morphism of -modules. The completed tensor product is isomorphic to , the set of power series in and with coefficients in converging on the open unit disk. Thus, one may see the big logarithm map as an application sending elements of the Iwasawa cohomology to two-variables power series tensored with . For a finite subextension of , let be the Bloch–Kato dual exponential map. We say that the cyclotomic part of a finite order character is of conductor if sends the topological generator to a primitive -th root of unity. Then, the big logarithm map enjoys the following interpolation property (see [22, Theorem 4.15]):
Proposition 3.1.
Let . Let be a character on whose cyclotomic part is of conductor . Then we have
where is the -factor of , is the idempotent corresponding to and is the operator which act as the arithmetic Frobenius on and on .
For simplicity, let us suppose that the dimension of as a -module is even as it will be the case for the applications we have in mind. Write for the dimension of as a -module where is some strictly positive integer. Choose a Hodge-compatible -basis of as in section 2.2. Let be a finite unramified extension of and let denote the cyclotomic -extension of . Then, in [4], the authors show the existence of one-variable Coleman maps
for . Those maps are compatible with the corestriction maps and the trace maps (see [23, Appendix A.1] where the Coleman maps are denoted by instead). We define two-variable Coleman maps by taking the inverse limit of the as runs through the finite extensions between and . In order to get a family of maps landing in , we further compose it with . More precisely, the two-variable Coleman maps are defined by
where . By identifying with , we omit from the notation and see as taking value in . By combining [4, Theorem 2.13] and [22, Theorem 4.7 (1)], we see that these Coleman maps decompose the big logarithm map
The matrix is called a logarithmic matrix and is defined in the following way: Let denote the th cyclotomic polynomial. For , first define the matrices
and where and are defined as in section 2.2 with . In [4], it is shown that the sequence converges to a matrix with entries in which we call . Let . If we include the primes and in our notation, then we have the Coleman maps

For any , an integer, define . Similarly, for any integer , we define .
Let be the block diagonal matrix where the blocks on the diagonal are given by and . Consider the tuples and where and for . Let us suppose that and .
We define to be the -minor of . We also define where .
3.3. Definitions and properties
The multi-signed Selmer group can be defined without the assumption that . For this subsection only, we work in more generality and drop this assumption. Suppose that there are primes above and in . Fix a choice of coset representatives and for and respectively. Since splits in , we can identify with and with . Consider the ``semi-local" decomposition coming from Shapiro's lemma
where runs through the primes above in . By choosing a Hodge-compatible basis of , define the Coleman map for at by
for all .
Let . Define and in an analogous way. Let denote a subset of and let
Tate's local pairing induces a pairing

Fix a finite set of prime of containing the primes above , the archimedean primes and the primes of ramification of . Let be the maximal extension of unramified outside . Let be the set of primes of lying above the primes in . If is any -module, we denote by .
Definition 3.2.
Let

Remark 3.3.
In the literature, is sometimes referred as the strict Selmer group instead.
Let and denote the Pontryagin dual of the -Selmer group and fine Selmer group respectively. Recall that (resp. ) is said to be -cotorsion if (resp. ) is a torsion module over .
Remark 3.4.
Change of basis. The Selmer groups depend both on the indexing set and the choice of the Hodge-compatible basis of the Dieudonné module (defined after (H.P)). A change of Hodge-compatible basis will affect the Coleman maps in the same way as described in [4, Section 2.4].
Remark 3.5.
Under the hypothesis , there is a unique prime above in . In this case,
where is the unique prime above . Furthermore, and we get Coleman maps

4.1. Ranks of Iwasawa modules
We say that satisfies weak Leopoldt's conjecture if the following equivalent statements are true.
Proposition 4.1.
The following statements are equivalent:
-
(1)

-
(2)
Proof.
See [22, Proposition A.5]. ∎
We recall the fine Selmer group over is given by
Let be the Pontryagin dual of this fine Selmer group over . Define

Lemma 4.2.
Suppose that there exists a such that is -cotorsion. Then is of rank over .
Proof.
By the Poitou–Tate exact sequence (3.2), is a quotient of and hence is -torsion. By [24, Proposition A.3.2], we have the exact sequence
Now is -torsion for all (see [22, Theorem A.2]). Therefore is -torsion and hence is true. Now since is totally imaginary, [22, Corollary A.8] shows that the rank over of is . ∎
We now discuss a partial result toward the converse of lemma 4.2. Suppose that is true. Then is of rank over by [22, Theorem A.4]. Assume that the images of () are nonzero. Thus, if and are the unique places above and in respectively,

is of rank since and has rank by [22, Theorem A.2]. By [25, proof of proposition 6], is -cotorsion for such that . We deduce, by local Tate duality, that the -module (4.1) has the same rank as the Pontryagin dual of . Thus has -corank and it follows that is the kernel of a morphism between two modules of the same corank. Being such a kernel is a necessary (but not sufficient) condition for to be -cotorsion.
Remark 4.3.
Suppose that is an elliptic curve. In that case, the Coleman maps defined in section 3.3 are the same as the -Coleman maps in [8]
For , it is then possible to construct signed -adic -functions . If we suppose that is nonzero, then [26, Theorem 3.7] shows that the signed Selmer group is -cotorsion. Moreover, when , the -Selmer groups generalise Kim's -Selmer groups [17]. The cotorsion-ness of those Selmer groups is known unconditionally by [27, Remark 8.5] in the case and corresponding to and Selmer groups.
In the next lemma, we give a condition over the cyclotomic extension which will ensure that is of rank over .
Lemma 4.4.
Suppose that there exists any such that is -cotorsion. Then is of rank over .
Proof.
Remark 4.5.
Note that [7, Lemma 2.4(2)] says that it needs to assume that is cotorsion for all in order to ensure holds. But a careful analysis of their proof reveals that the cotorsionness of for only one is sufficient.
Remark 4.6.
4.2. Bound using logarithmic matrices

For , let us suppose that we fix a family of classes such that is -torsion. Their existence is guaranteed since is of rank (under the hypothesis of either lemma 4.2 or lemma 4.4). Let be the image of in .
We write and for If , we can evaluate at in the following way. We write as a power series in and , say . We then define
For a -module , we write for the -module induced by this evaluation map.

There are exactly elements such that ; two such elements are called conjugate if there is an automorphism of the algebraic closure of taking one to the other [30, Section 2, p. 238]. The number of conjugates of a given is the rank of .

Proposition 4.12.
Suppose the hypothesis (H-large) holds. Then .
Proof.
Lemma 4.13.
Let and suppose that is -torsion. Then .
4.3. Block anti-diagonal matrices
Suppose we assume that is -torsion. Then it will imply that for . But this is not enough to ensure that since could be zero. In general, this is complicated to verify unless we are in some special cases where we can explicitly write down the matrices . This special case that we will be looking at can be thought of as an analogue for the case for supersingular elliptic curves as explained below.
In this section, for each , let us suppose that there exist a basis of such that the matrix is of the form where * is a matrix defined over . This means and for all . Therefore, is of the form
for some invertible matrices and defined over . In the context of elliptic curve with , we may choose a basis for and extend it to a basis of . With this choice, the matrix is equal to the anti-diagonal matrix [4, Appendix 4]. In particular, the matrix will have the same structure as the matrix defined in [8, p. 192]. In this case, it can be shown [8, Proposition 5.12] that the hypothesis (H-large) is satisfied for such elliptic curves.
For all , we fix a compatible system of primitive -th roots of unity and we write .
Recall that and for Let be the complement of . That is and for Let and .
Proposition 4.14.
Suppose and are block anti-diagonal matrices and the Selmer groups , , and are all -cotorsion. Then the hypothesis (H-large) holds.

where depending on the parity of and given in (4.4). This shows that hypothesis (H-large) is satisfied.
∎
Remark 4.15.
As mentioned previously, the Selmer groups not only depends on the choice of subset but also on the choice of -bases for and . However, as we will see, the Selmer groups , , and are canonically defined when and are block anti-diagonal matrices.
Definition 4.16.
Fix a Hodge-compatible -basis of . Hypothesis (H.HT) implies that is a direct summand of [4, Remark 2.3]. Let denote the free -module complementary to and generated by the set . We say that a -basis is Hodge-compatible with the basis if (resp. ) generated the submodule (resp. ).
Lemma 4.17.
Proof.
Since is a direct summand of , we get decompositions and where is generated by and is generated by . Since is block anti-diagonal with respect to , we have that and since is injective we in fact have equality. By a similar argument, . Thus generates . ∎
Let and . These indices should correspond to Selmer groups related with BDP type -adic -functions.
Proposition 4.18.
Suppose that there exist Hodge-compatible bases and of and such that and are block anti-diagonal with respect to these bases. Suppose that we have . Then does not depend on the choice of Hodge-compatible bases for and .
In other words, once there exist Hodge-compatible bases yielding block anti-diagonal matrices, becomes independent of the choice of Hodge-compatible bases for as in the statement of the proposition.
Proof.
Write and let be another Hodge-compatible basis of . Recall that Hodge-compatible means that and are bases for the -submodule . Let be the change of basis matrix from to . Then the hypothesis on both basis forces to be block diagonal. Write
where . Let be the -th Coleman map as defined in section 3.3 with respect to the basis . Let denotes the vector of Coleman maps which we see as a column vector. Define similarly the column vector of Coleman maps defined with respect to . Since is block anti-diagonal, lemma 4.17 gives us that is Hodge-compatible with . Hence we can use [4, Lemma 2.16] to deduce that both vectors of Coleman maps are related by the linear transformation Thus,
This implies that if and only if since is invertible. The same goes for and . We conclude that is independent of the choice of basis if is , or . The same argument holds for replaced by and so the result follows. ∎
Remark 4.19.
It is easy to see that and remain block anti-diagonal matrices upon a change of basis. This follows because is block anti-diagonal if is block diagonal and is block anti-diagonal for .

Proof.
We follow the arguments in the proof of [7, Lemma 1.1]. Let denote the residue field of . By [1, Lemma 5.11], the reduction map induces an isomorphism on -torsion points. Thus, the supersingularity of at implies that . Furthermore, for a place above in , the decomposition group is a pro- group. We deduce that also has no -torsion by an application of the orbit-stabilizer theorem as shown by the following argument.
Let be a prime above in . Suppose for the sake of contradiction that is not trivial. Write

Examples. Suppose that is an abelian variety defined over with good supersingular reduction at both prime over in such that the algebra of -endomorphisms of contains a number field with . Such abelian varieties are said to be of -type. Suppose further that the ring of integers of is the ring of -endomorphisms of and that is unramified in . It follows that the -adic Tate module of splits into
where the direct sum runs over all the prime of above and is a free -module of rank where is the completion of at . Then, it was proved in [7, Section 3.3] that there exists a basis of where the action of is given a matrix of the form for some and . If we assume that for all and , both matrices will be block anti-diagonal and theorem 5.6 holds.
Remark 5.7.
Let be an abelian variety over a number field with good ordinary reduction at all the primes above in . Let be a uniform admissible -adic extension of of dimension . In this context, assume that the Selmer group over is cotorison over the corresponding Iwasawa algebra. Under the stronger hypothesis of the -conjecture, Hung and Lim give an explicit bound on the growth of the Mordell–Weil rank of along (see [34, Theorem 3.1]). In the case of a supersingular elliptic curve, they also give an explicit bound for the Mordell–Weil rank of along the -extension of a quadratic imaginary field where splits (see [34, Theorem 6.3, Conjecture 2]). Under the same assumptions, in the recent work [35], A. Ray proved stronger bounds for the Mordell–Weil rank of an elliptic curve with good ordinary reduction at all the primes above along the noncommutative extension (see [35, Theorem 2.5 and Remark 2.6]. Therefore, it is a natural question to generalize those result in the supersingular case when is a -extension over containing the cyclotomic extension . One might also ask if it is possible to remove this hypothesis on the -conjecture, or at least replace it with something weaker. Another avenue to explore is the case of mixed reduction type. Let be an elliptic curve defined over a number field where splits completely. Suppose that has good reduction at primes above . In [36], Lei and Lim constructed multi-signed Selmer groups where they allow both ordinary or supersingular reduction at primes above . Under the assumption that at least one prime is supersingular for and that the dual of the aforementioned Selmer groups are torsion over the appropriate Iwasawa algebra, they show [36, Theorem 5.9] that the Mordell-Weil rank of stays bounded along the cyclotomic -extension of . One may ask if this can be generalized to abelian varieties with mixed reduction type at primes above over more general extensions. These are our future projects and needs further research.
6. Speculative remarks on multi-signed -adic -functions for by Chris Williams
We thank Chris Williams222CW would like to thank Antonio Lei and David Loeffler for very informative conversations on this topic, though any and all misconceptions are his own. for allowing us to include this in our paper.
There are a number of works in the literature proving signed Iwasawa main conjectures relating signed Selmer groups to signed -adic -functions. As such, it is natural to ask if the Selmer groups of the present paper have corresponding -adic -functions. We finally make some (very) speculative remarks in this direction.
6.1. Elliptic curves
In the case of elliptic curves over with good supersingular reduction, there are two signed Selmer groups, and two `standard' -adic -functions, i.e. those interpolating -values in the standard (and only) critical region. Via [37] these give rise to two signed -adic -functions, and the signed Iwasawa main conjectures [26] relate all possible Selmer groups and all possible -adic -functions.
Let be an imaginary quadratic field in which splits. Let be an elliptic curve over with good supersingular reduction at both primes above . Via modularity – recently proved in many cases in [38] – we expect that if it is not a -curve, corresponds to a weight 2 cuspidal Bianchi newform of level , for some ideal prime to . It thus makes sense to discuss the theory on the automorphic side, for rather than .
In this setting, the set has size 6, containing the pairs
These are the examples of Proposition 4.18, and thus all 6 correspond to canonical multi-signed Selmer groups in this case. On the analytic side, there are only 4 multi-signed -adic -functions, constructed in [39, §5] from the 4 standard -adic -functions of §4 op. cit. These correspond to the 4 Selmer groups where . The discrepancy here arises as the standard -adic -functions do not account for all possible regions where the -function has critical values. This phenomenon is discussed in [40, Fig. 4.1] or [41, Fig. 6.1]. There should be two additional two-variable -adic -functions of `BDP type', interpolating the critical -values in the `non-standard' region. When can be defined over , i.e. when is the base-change of a classical modular form, one- and two-variable -adic -functions interpolating values in this region were studied in [40] and [42] respectively. The Selmer groups where or is empty should be related to these BDP type -adic -functions. Their construction in the non-base-change setting (that is, for `genuine' Bianchi modular forms) remains mysterious.
We briefly elaborate why there are four standard -adic -functions. Recall the Bianchi modular form has level . There are four -refinements to level : there are independently two refinements at and two at , corresponding to choices of roots of the Hecke polynomials at and (see [43, §2.1]). This amounts to choosing one of the (four) Hecke eigenspaces in where the prime-to- Hecke operators act as they do on . Each -refinement yields a standard -adic -function.
Rephrasing, generates an automorphic representation of whose local components and are both unramified principal series. A -refinement is a pair of (independent) choices of and eigenvalues in the 2-dimensional spaces and of Iwahori-invariant vectors.
Summarising, in the case of elliptic curves, all of the 6 elements of the set have attached multi-signed Selmer groups and -adic -functions, which we expect to be related by suitable Iwasawa main conjectures.
6.2. Abelian surfaces
Suppose now , i.e. is an abelian surface. Under the paramodularity conjecture a suitably `generic' abelian surface should correspond to a cuspidal automorphic representation of (and this is known after base-change to some finite extension by [44]). If has good reduction at the primes above , then and will be unramified.
In this case, the set has size 70. By analogy to the elliptic curves case, one might naively expect that there are 70 multi-signed Selmer groups with 70 corresponding multi-signed -adic -functions. A key difference in this case, however, is that unlike weight 2 classical and Bianchi modular forms, where it exists is not cohomological. This causes some degeneration, which on the algebraic side is reflected in Proposition 4.18 of the main text: only 6 elements of lead to canonically defined multi-signed Coleman maps that are independent of the choice of Hodge-compatible basis. We now indicate how this degeneration occurs on the analytic side.
6.2.1. Counting -adic -functions: cohomological case
First consider the cohomological case, which is the closest direct analogue to the elliptic curves setting. Let be a cohomological cuspidal automorphic representation of unramified at the primes above . As above, there should be standard -adic -functions attached to all -refinements of to sufficiently deep level at . In this case, the Panchishkin condition [45] predicts that we should look for Hecke eigensystems that arise in the Klingen-parahoric invariants of and . One may compute that the Klingen-parahoric invariants of are 4-dimensional (e.g. [46, Prop. 3.15]). Given is cohomological, we expect that this 4-dimensional space should be the direct sum of four 1-dimensional Hecke eigenspaces, each with different Hecke eigenvalues. There should then be 16 standard -adic -functions for , corresponding to the 16 distinct pairs of choices of Klingen-invariant Hecke eigensystems in and .
It is natural to expect higher-weight analogues of the constructions of the present article, upon which we may ask which elements of these -adic -functions should correspond to. An alternative version of this theory can be described after transferring to an automorphic representation of via [47], as considered in [48, §3.3] or [49, §5–7]. One sees that, for the Asgari–Shahidi conventions considered in [49], the 16 standard -adic -functions should correspond to Selmer groups where and are independently allowed to be one of (i.e. each can contain precisely one of and precisely one of ). It is reasonable to expect that from these, one can construct 16 multi-signed -adic -functions (see §6.2.3). This accounts for only 16 of the 70 elements in :
-
(a)
There are a further 20 elements of where each of and both have size 2, but are not of the special shape above: these should correspond to -refinements of the -representation that are not of `Shalika type'. This classification of the -refinements is studied in detail in [50]; in the language op. cit., the 16 `good/Shalika-type' elements above exactly correspond to the refinements that are `-spin' at both primes above , and the other 20 are not spin at one or both primes above .
-
(b)
There are 16 elements of where (so ), and 16 when .
-
(c)
Finally, there are 2 cases where either or .
All of this is reflected in the fact that now has many more critical regions, analogous for example to [51, §2.3]. The standard -adic -functions above and in (a) will only see the standard critical region. The 2 cases of type (c) should correspond to BDP-style -adic -functions, and will interpolate values in another of the critical regions. One might expect more types of -adic -functions, corresponding to type (b) elements of and interpolating -values in the other regions. This hints at a tantalising, but at present very mysterious, picture of Selmer groups and -adic -functions in this setting.
6.2.2. Counting -adic -functions: non-cohomological case
Now suppose is not cohomological, attached to an abelian variety with supersingular reduction at each prime above . This causes degeneracy in the above picture.
In the picture of [51, §2.3], a number of the critical regions degenerate away to nothing: that is, some of the critical regions are empty in the non-cohomological case. (This is an analogue, for example, of the fact that the standard critical region is empty for weight 1 modular forms). In particular, in the type (b) cases above there is no hope of constructing -adic -functions with interpolative properties for non-cohomological .
There is also degeneracy in the 16 standard -adic -functions. In the supersingular case, the Frobenius eigenvalues at can only be , each appearing twice. The 4-dimensional Klingen-invariants in hence cannot split into four disjoint 1-dimensional Hecke eigenspaces, but only as a direct sum of two 2-dimensional Hecke eigenspaces, putting us in the so-called `irregular' setting. For over and , the irregular setting was for example studied in [52]. As a result, there should only be 4 standard -adic -functions in this case, corresponding to independent choices of eigenvalue at and .
These 4 standard -adic -functions should then have multi-signed analogues, corresponding to the 4 canonical Selmer groups in Proposition 4.18 with .
This picture holds in higher dimensions: for cohomological , the number of standard -adic -functions for will grow with , but in the case of supersingular abelian varieties, there will only ever be 2 choices (again either ) of -refinement for each of and , reflected on the algebraic side in the four `standard' cases in Proposition 4.18.
The other cases of Proposition 4.18, where or is empty, provide good evidence that there exist two-variable BDP-style -adic -functions attached to abelian varieties.
6.2.3. What is known?
For cohomological automorphic representations of over , the existence of standard -adic -functions is now known for appropriate non-critical slope refinements (those of `Shalika type' above), but only after transfer to (see [53]). The signed theory has not yet been explored in this setting.
We briefly also mention some related work when the base field is , and where more is known. For cohomological representations on , standard -adic -functions for have been constructed (after transfer to on ) for Klingen-invariant eigensystems that correspond to non-ordinary, non-critical -refinements for (see [54]). When is `good supersingular' at , and there are two non-critical slope -refinements and of , the recent papers [55] and [56] construct two signed -adic -functions attached to . They use the unbounded -adic -functions and of [54], and prove that
where is a measure and is Pollack's (unbounded) -logarithmic distribution. The signed -adic -functions are then the measures .
One might expect the existence of two more (critical slope) signed -adic -functions in this case. This is presently not known, but one can guess at the shape of this theory. There are two further critical slope -refinements of , transferring to critical slope -refinements and of via the process in [49, §5]. In the `supersingular' setting above, these refinements can be shown to have the same slope for the operator defined by ; hence, if and are both non-critical (cf. [54, Rem. 3.15]), then the corresponding -adic -functions constructed in Theorem 6.23 op. cit. have the same growth property. One might reasonably expect (in line with [55, 56]) that is of the form [measure]± [explicit unbounded logarithmic distribution]±. However, unlike in [55, 56], it is not possible to deduce this solely using the interpolative properties of and alone: the growth is too big, so there are insufficient critical -values to uniquely determine
The above constructions fundamentally use that (hence ) appears in the Betti cohomology of locally symmetric spaces, and break down for non-cohomological . To construct -adic -functions for such , one strategy is to deform from cohomological to non-cohomological weight along an eigenvariety. In the present setting, this appears extremely difficult, as the points are non-regular, non-cohomological, and non-ordinary. In particular:
-
–
One must obtain good control over the -eigenvariety at non-regular, non-cohomological points, analogous to the study done in [57] for .
-
–
In the setting, the relevant points will not be ordinary, meaning one cannot study them using Hida families. Instead one must use Coleman families, which do not exist over the whole weight space but only over smaller neighbourhoods.
-
–
For , since does not admit discrete series, the picture is even worse. In general, it is not expected that the -refinements of will vary in classical families in the eigenvariety; this is a folklore conjecture [58, Intro.], a general analogue of [59]. In this scenario deformation from cohomological weight is impossible.
For ordinary, a -adic -function attached to its (unique) ordinary -refinement is given in [60, Prop. 3.3]. However, the method of proof – using higher Hida theory, via the coherent cohomology of Shimura varieties – will not apply to the analogous setting over , where the corresponding locally symmetric spaces are not even algebraic varieties.
Summarising, for general supersingular defined over an imaginary quadratic field with split, constructing the 4 conjectured standard -adic -functions attached to seems completely out of reach with present methods.
Finally, consider the degenerate case where is a product of elliptic curves , each defined over . The Galois representation attached to will just be a direct sum of the Tate modules of the , and its -function will be a product of the . Good candidates for the multi-signed -adic -functions in this case would be products of the multi-signed -adic -functions attached to constructed in [39, Prop. 5.2], where we take the same choice in at each of the .
