Abstract:

This article establishes new cases of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture in analytic rank $0$, for elliptic curves over $\mathbb {Q}$ viewed over the fields cut out by certain self-dual Artin representations of dimension at most $4$. When the associated $L$-function vanishes (to even order $\ge 2$) at its central point, two canonical classes in the corresponding Selmer group are constructed and shown to be linearly independent assuming the non-vanishing of a Garrett-Hida $p$-adic $L$-function at a point lying outside its range of classical interpolation. The key tool for both results is the study of certain $p$-adic families of global Galois cohomology classes arising from Gross-Kudla-Schoen diagonal cycles in a tower of triple products of modular curves.
