Abstract

The main purpose of this note is to understand the arithmetic encoded in the special value of the pp-adic LL-function Lpg(f,g,h)\mathcal{L}_p^g(\mathbf{f},\mathbf{g},\mathbf{h}) associated to a triple of modular forms (f,g,h)(f,g,h) of weights (2,1,1)(2,1,1), in the case where the classical LL-function L(fgh,s)L(f\otimes g\otimes h,s) - which typically has sign +1+1 - does not vanish at its central critical point s=1s=1. When ff corresponds to an elliptic curve E/QE/\mathbb{Q} and the classical LL-function vanishes, the Elliptic Stark Conjecture of Darmon-Lauder-Rotger predicts that Lpg(f,g,h)(2,1,1)\mathcal{L}_p^g(\mathbf{f},\mathbf{g},\mathbf{h})(2,1,1) is either 00 (when the order of vanishing of the complex LL-function is >2>2) or related to logarithms of global points on EE and a certain Gross--Stark unit associated to gg. We complete the picture proposed by the Elliptic Stark Conjecture by providing a formula for the value Lpg(f,g,h)(2,1,1)\mathcal{L}_p^g(\mathbf{f},\mathbf{g},\mathbf{h})(2,1,1) in the case where L(fgh,1)0L(f\otimes g\otimes h,1)\neq 0.
