The epsilon constant conjecture for higher dimensional unramified twists of Zpr(1)
Abstract
Let N/K be a finite Galois extension of p-adic number fields and let nr : GK Glr( Zp) be an r-dimensional unramified representation of the absolute Galois group GK which is the restriction of an unramified representation nr Qp : G Qp Glr( Zp). In this paper we consider the Gal(N/K)-equivariant local ε-conjecture for the p-adic representation T = Zpr(1)(nr). For example, if A is an abelian variety of dimension r defined over Qp with good ordinary reduction, then the Tate module T = Tp A associated to the formal group A of A is a p-adic representation of this form. We prove the conjecture for all tame extensions N/K and a certain family of weakly and wildly ramified extensions N/K. This generalizes previous work of Izychev and Venjakob in the tame case and of the authors in the weakly and wildly ramified case.
