Overconvergent construction of anticyclotomic p-adic L-functions
Chan-Ho Kim, Visiting Assistant Professor, Mathematics, UC Irvine,

This is work in progress. We sketch a rather simple construction of anticyclotomic p-adic L-functions of modular forms of higher weight and non-critical slope following the idea of overconvergent modular symbols a la Stevens. The key ingredient is ``the Gross points at infinite level", which can be understood as a non-Archimedian analogue of the cycle from infinity to 0 on the complex upper half plane.
