Abstract

Plectic points were introduced by Fornea and Gehrmann as certain tensor products of local pointson elliptic curves over arbitrary number fields FF. In rank r[F:Q]r\leq [F:\mathbb{Q}]-situations, they conjecturally come from p-adic regulators of basis of the Mordell-Weil group defined over dihedral extensions of FF. In this article we define two variable anticyclotomic pp-adic L-functions attached to a family of overconvergent modular symbols defined over FF and a quadratic extension K/FK/F. Their restriction to the weight space provide Hida-Rankin pp-adic L-functions. If such a family passes through an overconvergent modular symbol attached to a modular elliptic curve E/FE/F, we obtain a pp-adic Gross-Zagier formula that computes higher derivatives of such Hida-Rankin pp-adic L-functions in terms of plectic points. This result generalizes that of Bertolini and Darmon, which has been key to demonstrating the rationality of Darmon points.
