TL;DR
This work constructs a twisted triple product $p$-adic $L$-function for finite slope families of Hilbert modular forms with $p$ unramified in a totally real field $L$. Central to the approach is a robust $p$-adic interpolation framework built from overconvergent modular forms and de Rham data, organized by VBMS with marked sections, and guided by a refined Gauss--Manin iteration that converges across multiple embeddings. The authors develop interpolation sheaves $oldsymbol{w}_k^0$ and $oldsymbol{W}_k^0$, extend them to analytic families, and define a $p$-adic iteration $ abla^s$ compatible with Marked Splittings, partial Igusa towers, and Hecke actions. They prove an interpolation formula that expresses special values of the twisted triple product $L$-function in terms of $p$-adic periods and Petersson-type pairings, recovering previous Hida-family results in compatible limits. The construction broadens the scope of $p$-adic automorphic $L$-functions to finite slope Hilbert modular forms and paves the way for p-adic Gross–Zagier-type formulas with potential arithmetic applications, including links to generalized Abel–Jacobi maps and BSD-type conjectures in the totally real setting.
Abstract
Let $L$ be a totally real field, and $p$ be a rational prime that is unramified in $L$. We construct overconvergent families of classes of relative de Rham cohomology of the universal abelian scheme over Hilbert modular varieties associated to $L$. We show that these classes come equipped with Gauss-Manin connection. We prove convergence for $p$-adic iteration of this connection, improving upon a technique due to Andreatta-Iovita. We use this to construct a $p$-adic twisted triple product $L$-function associated to finite slope families of Hilbert modular forms, extending work of Blanco-Chacon-Fornea for Hida families.
