Euler systems for Rankin--Selberg convolutions of modular forms (1212.4056v2)
Published 17 Dec 2012 in math.NT
Abstract: We construct an Euler system in the cohomology of the tensor product of the Galois representations attached to two modular forms, using elements in the higher Chow groups of products of modular curves. We use this Euler system to prove a finiteness theorem for the strict Selmer group of the Galois representation when the associated p-adic Rankin--Selberg L-function is non-vanishing at s = 1.
