Numerical Evidence for a refinement of Deligne's Period Conjecture for Jacobians of Curves

Let $A\mathrm{/}\mathbb{Q}$ be a Jacobian variety and let $F$ be a totally real, tamely ramified, abelian number field. Given a character $\psi$ of $F\mathrm{/}\mathbb{Q}$, Deligne’s Period Conjecture asserts the algebraicity of the suitably normalised value $\mathcal{L}(A,\psi ,1)$ at $z=1$ of the Hasse-Weil-Artin $L$-function of the $\psi$-twist of $A$. We formulate a conjecture regarding the integrality properties of the family of normalised $L$-values $(\mathcal{L}(A,\psi ,1){)}_{\psi }$, and its relation to the Tate-Shafarevich group of $A$ over $F$. We numerically investigate our conjecture through $p$-adic congruence relations between these values.
