We consider two natural complexes that appear in recent formulations of equivariant Iwasawa main conjectures for extensions of not necessarily totally real fields. We show that both complexes are isomorphic in the derived category of Iwasawa modules if the weak Leopoldt conjecture holds for the relevant $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension.
We formulate a new equivariant Main Conjecture in Iwasawa theory of number fields and study its properties. This is done for arbitrary one-dimensional $p$-adic Lie extensions $L_\infty/K$ containing the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $K_\infty$ of the base field. As opposed to existing conjectures in the area, no requirement that $L_\infty/K$ be abelian or that $L_\infty$ be totally real is imposed. We prove the independence of the Main Conjecture of essentially all of its parameters and explore its functorial behaviour. It is furthermore shown that, to a large extent, this new conjecture generalises existing ones of Burns, Kurihara and Sano and Ritter and Weiss, which enables us to deduce its validity in several cases.
