We give a new construction of noncommutative surfaces via elliptic difference operators, attaching a 1-parameter noncommutative deformation to any projective rational surface with smooth anticanonical curve. The construction agrees with one…

In 2003, Kedlaya gave an algorithm to compute the zeta function associated to a hyperelliptic curve over a finite field, by computing the rigid cohomology of the curve. Edixhoven remarked that it is actually possible to compute the…

We describe some experiments that show a connection between elliptic curves of high rank and the Riemann zeta function on the one line. We also discuss a couple of statistics involving $L$-functions where the zeta function on the one line…

We apply the homological mirror symmetry for elliptic curves to the study of indefinite theta series. We prove that every such series corresponding to a quadratic form of signature (1,1) can be expressed in terms of theta series associated…

The modularity of an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb Q$ can be expressed either as an analytic statement that the $L$-function is the Mellin transform of a modular form, or as a geometric statement that $E$ is a quotient of a modular curve…

We compute the PSL(2,N)-module structure of the Riemann-Roch space L(D), where D is an invariant non-special divisor on the modular curve X(N), with N > 5 prime. This depends on a computation of the ramification module, which we give…

In Sarnak's paper, it was proved that the Selberg zeta function for SL(2,Z) is expressed in terms of the fundamental units and the class numbers of the primitive indefinite binary quadratic forms. The aim of this paper is to obtain similar…

Let $p$ and $l$ be rational primes such that $l$ is odd and the order of $p$ modulo $l$ is even. For such primes $p$ and $l$, and for $e=l, 2l$, we consider the non-singular projective curves $aY^e = bX^e + cZ^e$ ($abc \neq 0$) defined over…

To obtain the Dirichlet series for complex powers of the Riemann zeta function, we define and study the basic properties of a sequence of polynomials that, used as coefficients of the respective terms of the Dirichlet series of the Riemann…

Let $d(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$, let $$ \Delta(x) := \sum_{n\le x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma -1) $$ denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $\zeta(s)$ denote the Riemann zeta-function. Several…

We show (under some hypothesis in small dimensions) that the analytic degree of the divisor of a modular form on the orthogonal group O(2,p) is determined by its weight. Moreover, we prove that certain integrals, occurring in Arakelov…

We recently introduced the recursive divisor function $\kappa_x(n)$, a recursive analogue of the usual divisor function. Here we calculate its Dirichlet series, which is ${\zeta(s-x)}/(2 - \zeta(s))$. We show that $\kappa_x(n)$ is related…

In this brief note we bring out the analogy between the arithmetic of elliptic curves and the Riemann zeta-function.

The Dirichlet characters of reduced residue systems modulo m are tabulated for moduli m <= 195. The associated L-series are tabulated for m <= 14 and small positive integer argument s accurate to 10^(-50), their first derivatives for m <=…

We first describe, over a field K of characteristic different from 2, the orbits for the adjoint actions of the Lie groups PGL(2, K) and PSL(2, K) on their Lie algebra sl(2, K). While the former are well known, the latter lead to the…

Let F be the cubic field of discriminant -23 and let O be its ring of integers. By explicitly computing cohomology of congruence subgroups of GL(2,O), we computationally investigate modularity of elliptic curves over F.

For a given elliptic curve, its associated $L$-function evaluated at $1$ is closely related to its real period. In this article, we generalize this principle to a rational curve. We count the rational points over all finite fields and use…

A computer-algebra aided method is carried out, for determining geometric objects associated to differential operators that satisfy the elliptic ansatz. This results in examples of Lame curves with double reduction and in the explicit…

The modularity theorem implies that for every elliptic curve $E /\mathbb{Q}$ there exist rational maps from the modular curve $X_0(N)$ to $E$, where $N$ is the conductor of $E$. These maps may be expressed in terms of pairs of modular…

We classify quadratic SL(2,K)- and sl(2,K)-modules by crude computation, generalizing in the first case a Theorem proved independently by F.-G. Timmesfeld and S. Smith. The paper is the first of a series dealing with linearization results…
