Heights via \(p\)-adic points (Q6156015)

The paper under review deals with adelic volumes and Tamagawa numbers on motives, inspired by connections with the famous conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer. More specifically, the author proposed, with and \textit{K. Kato} [Prog. Math. None, 333--400 (1990; Zbl 0768.14001)], an adelic volume interpretation for zeta functions of motives with weight less than \(-1\). In the present paper, the author extends that conjecture to the case of weight \(-1\) and develops the notion of adelic tori over the adelic cohomology groups. The paper contains no theorems (though several lemmas and propositions), instead making some conjectures and building the necessary structure to support them. For example, the following is Conjecture 11: Conjecture 11. Let \(p\) be a non-archimedean prime. Assume \(X\) has good reduction at \(p\) and the closures of the supports of the cycles \(Y\) and \(Z\) in the model over \(\mathrm{Spec}(\mathbb{Z}_p)\) do not meet on the closed fiber. Then the above cycle class is crystalline, i.e., it lands in \[ H^1_f\left(\mathrm{Spec}(\mathbb{Q}_P),H_c^{2n-2r+1}\left(U_{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}},\hat{\mathbb{Z}}(n-r+1)\right)\right). \] Here, \(Y\) is a cycle on \(X\) of codimension \(r\) and \(Z\) is a cycle of codimension \(n-r+1\) that is homologous to zero and whose support does not meet \(Y\). The ``above cycle class'' referred to in the conjecture is the class \([Z]\) in \(H^1(\mathbb{Q}_p,H^{2n-2r+1}(X,\mathbb{Q}_p(n-r+1)))\) induced by \(Z\).
