We show that it is possible to approximate the zeta-function of a curve over a finite field by meromorphic functions which satisfy the same functional equation and moreover satisfy (respectively do not satisfy) the analogue of the Riemann…
For an arbitrary complex number $a\neq 0$ we consider the distribution of values of the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta$ at the $a$-points of the function $\Delta$ which appears in the functional equation $\zeta(s)=\Delta(s)\zeta(1-s)$. These…
We describe the tropical curves in toric varieties and define the tropical Gromov-Witten invariants. We introduce amplitudes for the higher topological quantum mechanics (HTQM) on special trees and show that the amplitudes are equal to the…
In this paper, a certain two-parameter family of plane-embeddings of Edwards elliptic curve $E_a: x^2+y^2=a^2(1+x^2y^2)$ is introduced to provide explicitly computed tropical curves corresponding to degeneration in $a\to 1$. Applying the…
Tropical limit for macroscopic systems in equilibrium defined as the formal limit of Boltzmann constant k going to 0 is discussed. It is shown that such tropical limit is well-adapted to analyse properties of systems with highly degenerated…
To a finite, connected, unoriented graph of Betti-number g>=2 and valencies >=3 we associate a finitely summable, commutative spectral triple (in the sense of Connes), whose induced zeta functions encode the graph. This gives another…
A tropical version of Nevanlinna theory is described in which the role of meromorphic functions is played by continuous piecewise linear functions of a real variable whose one-sided derivatives are integers at every point. These functions…
Kempf proved that the theta divisor of a smooth projective curve C has rational singularities. In this paper we estimate the dimensions of the jet schemes of the theta divisor and show that all these schemes are irreducible. In particular,…
We give an algebraic analog of the functional equation of Riemann's theta function. More precisely, we define a `theta multiplier' line bundle over the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian schemes with theta characteristic and…
We present a derivation of the numerical phenomenon that differences between the Riemann zeta function's nontrivial zeros tend to avoid being equal to the imaginary parts of the zeros themselves, a property called statistical "repulsion"…
In this thesis we study toric rank functions for chip firing games and prove special cases of a conjectural Riemann-Roch. The original motivation for an investigation into this area of study came for the adaptation (due to Matt Baker) of…
We prove an analogue of Clifford's inequality for tropical curves. Next we focus on the hyperelliptic case and we characterize divisors attaining equality. Finally we speculate whether inequality in tropical Clifford's Theorem does imply…
We present applications of tropical geometry to some integrable piecewise-linear maps, based on the lecture given by one of the authors (R. I.) at the workshop "Tropical Geometry and Integrable Systems" (University of Glasgow, July 2011),…
Riemann's non-differentiable function and Gauss's quadratic reciprocity law have attracted the attention of many researchers. In \cite{RM} Murty and Pacelli gave an instructive proof of the quadratic reciprocity via the theta-transformation…
The Torelli theorem establishes that the Jacobian of a smooth projective curve, together with the polarization provided by the theta divisor, fully characterizes the curve. In the case of nodal curves, there exists a concept known as fine…
An old conjecture claims that commuting Hamiltonians of the double-elliptic integrable system are constructed from the theta-functions associated with Riemann surfaces from the Seiberg-Witten family, with moduli treated as dynamical…
We define a divisorial motivic zeta function for stable curves with marked points which agrees with Kapranov's motivic zeta function when the curve is smooth and unmarked. We show that this zeta function is rational, and give a formula in…
Graphene, with its quantum Hall topological (Chern) number reflecting the massless Dirac particle, is shown to harbor yet another topological quantum number. This is obtained by combining Streda's general formula for the polarization…
We investigate the intersections of the curve $\mathbb{R}\ni t\mapsto \zeta({1\over 2}+it)$ with the real axis. We show unconditionally that the zeta-function takes arbitrarily large positive and negative values on the critical line.
The paper describes a method for calculating values of Riemann's Zeta function within the critical strip 0< {\sigma} <1 and on its boundary. The approach is based on the "Alternating Zeta function" {\eta}(s). The actual Riemann Zeta…
