Abstract:
In 1980, Gross conjectured a formula for the expected leading term at s=0 of the Deligne-Ribet p-adic L-function associated to a totally even character ϕ of a totally real field F. The conjecture states that after scaling by L(ϕω-1,0), this value is equal to a p-adic regulator of units in the abelian extension of F cut out by ϕω-1. In this paper, we prove Gross's conjecture.
