On the residue of Eisenstein classes of Siegel varieties

Eisenstein classes of Siegel varieties are motivic cohomology classes defined as pull-backs by torsion sections of the polylogarithm prosheaf on the universal abelian scheme. By reduction to the Hilbert-Blumenthal case, we prove that the Betti realization of these classes on Siegel varieties of arbitrary genus have non-trivial residue on zero dimensional strata of the Baily-Borel compactification. A direct corollary is the non-vanishing of a higher regulator map.
