Abstract
I will give a brief introduction to some of the conjectures relating special values of L-functions to regulators of motivic cohomology classes, such as Beilinson's conjecture and the Bloch-Kato conjecture. I will then describe the p-adic 'mirror image' of these conjectures proposed by Perrin-Riou, and how the methods of Iwasawa theory can be used to make substantial progress on these p-adic conjectures. I will illustrate this with the examples of the Riemann zeta function and the L-functions of elliptic curves, and some more
recent developments if time allows.
