On the Leading Terms of Zeta Isomorphisms and p-Adic L-functions in Non-Commutative Iwasawa Theory

We discuss the formalism of Iwasawa theory descent in the setting of the localized $K_1$-groups of Fukaya and Kato. We then prove interpolation formulas for the `leading terms' of the global Zeta isomorphisms that are associated to certain Tate motives and of the $p$-adic $L$-functions that are associated to certain critical motives.
