abstract
We upgrade Howard's divisibility towards Perrin-Riou's Heegner point main conjecture to the predicted equality. Contrary to previous works in this direction, our main result allows for the classical Heegner hypothesis and non-squarefree conductors. The main ingredients we exploit are W.~Zhang's proof of Kolyvagin's conjecture, Kolyvagin's structure theorem for Shafarevich--Tate groups, and the explicit reciprocity law for Heegner points.

On Howard's main conjecture and the Heegner point Kolyvagin system
The paper upgrades Howard's divisibility to the full Howard main conjecture when the Heegner-point Kolyvagin system is primitive, and shows the conjecture is equivalent to primitivity plus a Tamagawa-factor condition.
