Let p be an odd prime number and K be a p-adic field. In this paper, we develop an analogue of Fontaine's theory of (phi,Gamma)-modules replacing the p-cyclotomic extension by the extension K_infty obtained by adding to K a compatible…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over an imaginary quadratic field $K$, and $p$ be an odd prime such that the residual representation $E[p]$ is reducible. The $\mu$-invariant of the fine Selmer group of $E$ over the anticyclotomic…

We study the zeros of cusp forms in the Miller basis whose vanishing order at infinity is a fixed number $m$. We show that for sufficiently large weights, the finite zeros of such forms in the fundamental domain, all lie on the circular…

Let $F^{+}$ be a mock modular form associated to a normalized newform $g$. K. Bringmann et. al. obtained a $p$-adic modular form starting from $F^{+}$ by adding a suitable linear combination of Eichler integrals of $g(q)$ and $g(q^{p})$. We…

We show that the finite part of the adjoint $L$ function (including contributions from all nonarchimedean places, including ramified places) is holomorphic in $\Re(s) \ge 1/2$ for a cuspidal automorphic representation of $GL_3$ over a…

In this paper we give a bound for the Iwasawa lambda invariant of an abelian number field attached to the cyclotomic Z_p-extension of that field. We also give some properties of Iwaswa power series attached to p-adic L-functions.

We study the groups $G$ with the curious property that there exists an element $k\in G$ and a function $f\colon G\to G$ such that $f(xk)=xf(x)$ holds for all $x\in G$. This property arose from the study of near-rings and input-output…

We investigate certain finiteness questions that arise naturally when studying approximations modulo prime powers of p-adic Galois representations coming from modular forms. We link these finiteness statements with a question by K. Buzzard…

Let p be any prime and a be a positive integer. For nonnegative integers l,n and an integer r, the normalized cyclotomic $\psi$-coefficient $${n,r}_{l,p^a}:=p^{-[(n-p^{a-1}-lp^a)/(p^{a-1}(p-1))]} \sum_{k=r(mod p^a)}(-1)^k{n \choose…

Given a prime power $p^d$ with $p$ a prime and $d$ a positive integer, we classify the finite groups $G$ with $p^{2d}$ dividing $|G|$ in which all subgroups of order $p^d$ are complemented and the finite groups $G$ having a normal…

Let p be a prime. Every finite group G has a normal series each of whose quotients either is p-soluble or is a direct product of nonabelian simple groups of orders divisible by p. The non-p-soluble length of G is defined as the minimal…

We give a new definition of a $p$-adic $L$-function for a mixed signature character of a real quadratic field and for a nontrivial ray class character of an imaginary quadratic field. We then state a $p$-adic Stark conjecture for this…

We obtain uniform lower bounds, true for all automorphic L-functions L(s) associated to cuspidal representations of GL(m,A) where A denotes the adeles of the rationals Q, of the integral on the vertical line (Re(s)=1/2) of the absolute…

Let $p$ and $q$ be two distinct odd primes. Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field over which $p$ and $q$ are both split. Let $\Psi$ be a Hecke character over $K$ of infinity type $(k,j)$ with $0\le-j< k$. Under certain technical…

Let $p$ be a real number greater than one. In this paper we study the vanishing and nonvanishing of the first $L^p$-cohomology space of some groups that have one end. We also make a connection between the first $L^p$-cohomology space and…

We continue with our study of the non-critical exceptional zeros of Katz' $p$-adic $L$-functions attached to a CM field $K$, following two threads. In the first thread, we redefine our (group-ring-valued) $\mathcal{L}$-invariant associated…

Let $p$ be a prime number and suppose that every maximal subgroup of a finite group is either $p$-nilpotent or has prime index. Such group need not be $p$-solvable, and we study its structure by proving that only one nonabelian simple group…

In this brief note, we consider p-adic unit roots or poles of L-functions of exponential sums defined over finite fields. In particular, we look at the number of unit roots or poles, and a congruence relation on the units. This raises a…

We fix a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. For a finite group $G$ denote by $\delta(G)$ and $\sigma(G)$ respectively the minimal number $d$, such that for any finite dimensional representation $V$ of $G$ over $\kk$ and any $v\in…

In this paper, we deduce the vanishing of Selmer groups for the Rankin-Selberg convolution of a cusp form with a theta series of higher weight from the nonvanishing of the associated $L$-value, thus establishing the rank 0 case of the…
