Abstract

We study weight one specializations of the Euler system of Beilinson–Flach elements introduced by Kings, Loeffler and Zerbes, with a view towards a conjecture of Darmon, Lauder and Rotger relating logarithms of units in suitable number fields to special values of the Hida–Rankin p-adic L-function. We show that the latter conjecture follows from expected properties of Beilinson–Flach elements and prove the analogue of the main theorem of Castella and Hsieh about generalized Kato classes.
