Using the cohomology theory of Dwork, as developed by Adolphson and Sperber, we exhibit a deterministic algorithm to compute the zeta function of a nondegenerate hypersurface defined over a finite field. This algorithm is particularly…

The zeta-function of a manifold is closely related to, and sometimes can be calculated completely, in terms of its periods. We report here on a practical and computationally rapid implementation of this procedure for families of Calabi-Yau…

In various contexts, the zeta function of an object splits into a product of $L$-functions. We categorify this product formula for quadratic covers of objects in the following contexts: quadratic extensions of number fields, ramified double…

We compute the number of rational quartics on a general Calabi-Yau hypersurface in weighted projective space P(2,1^4). The result agrees with the prediction made by mirror symmetry.

The zeta function of a K3 surface over a finite field satisfies a number of obvious (archimedean and l-adic) and a number of less obvious (p-adic) constraints. We consider the converse question, in the style of Honda-Tate: given a function…

In this paper we prove that there exists a Zariski dense open subset U defined over the rationals Q in the space of all one-variable rational functions with arbitrary k poles of prescribed orders, such that for every geometric point f in…

In the present paper we give a simple mathematical foundation for describing the zeros of the Selberg zeta functions $Z_X$ for certain very symmetric infinite area surfaces $X$. For definiteness, we consider the case of three funneled…

The Hasse-Witt matrix of a hypersurface in ${\mathbb P}^n$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ gives essentially complete mod $p$ information about the zeta function of the hypersurface. But if the degree $d$ of the hypersurface is…

We introduce and study new versions of polylogarithms and a zeta function on a completion of $\mathbb F_q (x)$ at a finite place. The construction is based on the use of the Carlitz differential equations for $\mathbb F_q$-linear functions.

We compute the complete set of candidates for the zeta function of a K3 surface over F_2 consistent with the Weil conjectures, as well as the complete set of zeta functions of smooth quartic surfaces over F_2. These sets differ…

We present various improvements to the deformation method for computing the zeta function of smooth projective hypersurfaces over finite fields using $p$-adic cohomology. This includes new bounds for the $p$-adic and $t$-adic precisions…

Inspired by work surrounding Igusa's local zeta function, we introduce topological representation zeta functions of unipotent algebraic groups over number fields. These group-theoretic invariants capture common features of established…

This is a survey on motivic zeta functions associated to abelian varieties and Calabi-Yau varieties over a discretely valued field. We explain how they are related to Denef and Loeser's motivic zeta function associated to a complex…

In this manuscript, we give effective methods for computing the zeta function of maximal orders on surfaces.

We determine the zeta functions of trinomial curves in terms of Gauss sums and Jacobi sums, and we obtain an explicit formula of the genus of a trinomial curve over a finite field, then we study the conditions for a trinomial curve to be a…

Curves over finite fields are of great importance in cryptography and coding theory. Through studying their zeta-functions, we would be able to find out vital arithmetic and geometric information about them and their Jacobians, including…

In this paper we define a symmetric zeta function. We show that it can be analytically continued to a meromorphic function on $\mathbb{C}^3$ with only simple poles at some special hyperplanes. We also calculate the value of a multiple…

We give an explicit formula for the subalgebra zeta function of a general 3-dimensional Lie algebra over the p-adic integers $\mathbb{Z}_p$. To this end, we associate to such a Lie algebra a ternary quadratic form over $\mathbb{Z}_p$. The…

We define the zeta function of a noncommutative K3 surface over a finite field, an invariant under Fourier-Mukai equivalence that can be used to define point counts in this noncommutative setting. These point counts can be negative, and can…

In this work we present an explicit relation between the number of points on a family of algebraic curves over $\F_{q}$ and sums of values of certain hypergeometric functions over $\F_{q}$. Moreover, we show that these hypergeometric…
