Abstract

Given an odd prime number pp and a pp-stabilized Artin representation ρ\rho over Q\mathbb{Q}, we introduce a family of pp-adic Stark regulators and we formulate an Iwasawa-Greenberg main conjecture and a pp-adic Stark conjecture which can be seen as an explicit strengthening of conjectures by Perrin-Riou and Benois in the context of Artin motives. We show that these conjectures imply the pp-part of the Tamagawa number conjecture for Artin motives at s=0s=0 and we obtain unconditional results on the torsionness of Selmer groups. We also relate our new conjectures with various main conjectures and variants of pp-adic Stark conjectures that appear in the literature. In the case of monomial representations, we prove that our conjectures are essentially equivalent to some newly introduced Iwasawa-theoretic conjectures for Rubin-Stark elements. We derive from this a pp-adic Beilinson-Stark formula for finite-order characters of an imaginary quadratic field in which pp is inert. Along the way, we prove that the Gross-Kuz'min conjecture unconditionally holds for abelian extensions of imaginary quadratic fields.
