Derived Bockstein regulators and anticyclotomic $p$-adic Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjectures

Abstract

We introduce "derived Bockstein regulators" by using an idea of Nekov\'a\v{r}. We establish a general descent formalism involving derived Bockstein regulators. We give three applications of this formalism. Firstly, we show that a conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer type for Heegner points formulated by Bertolini and Darmon in 1996 follows from Perrin-Riou's Heegner point main conjecture up to a $p$-adic unit. Secondly, we show that a $p$-adic Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for the Bertolini-Darmon-Prasanna $p$-adic $L$-function recently formulated by Agboola and Castella follows from the Iwasawa-Greenberg main conjecture up to a $p$-adic unit. Finally, we extend conjectures and results on derivatives of Euler systems for a general motive given by Kataoka and the present author into a natural derived setting.
