We explain how the unramified Plancherel formula in the relative Langlands program gives a natural way of constructing test vectors which satisfy the tame norm relations of an Euler system. This uniformly recovers many of the known Euler systems, and in the twisted Friedberg--Jacquet setting, we produce a new split anticyclotomic Euler system.
This paper sets up a framework to organize anticyclotomic Iwasawa theory in the context of the Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture for unitary groups. We propose multiple main conjectures depending on archimedean weight interlacing conditions, generalizing phenomena in the anticyclotomic Iwasawa theory of elliptic curves. We also prove an abstract theorem in Galois cohomology which relates the conjectures.
We construct split anti-cyclotomic Euler systems for Galois representations attached to certain RACSDC automorphic representations on the group $\mathrm{GL}_n\times\mathrm{GL}_{n+1}$. As a result, we make progress towards certain rank 1 cases of the Beilinson--Bloch--Kato conjecture for those representations.
Let $A$ be a non-CM simple abelian variety over a number field $K$. For a place $v$ of $K$ such that $A$ has good reduction at $v$, let $F(A,v)$ denote the Frobenius field generated by the corresponding Frobenius eigenvalues. Assuming $A$ has connected monodromy groups, we show that the set of places $v$ such that $F(A,v)$ is isomorphic to a fixed number field has upper Dirichlet density zero. Assuming the GRH, we give a power saving upper bound for the number of such places.
