Planar functions over finite fields give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. They exist only in odd characteristic, but recently Zhou introduced an even characteristic analogue which has similar applications.…
The individual terms of the series representing the Riemann zeta function are examined geometrically from their accumulated plot in the complex plane. Symmetry is identified and determined mathematically for comparison with more traditional…
We present a randomised algorithm to compute the local zeta function of a fixed smooth, projective surface over $\mathbb{Q}$, at any large prime $p$ of good reduction. The runtime of our algorithm is polynomial in $\log p$, resolving a…
We consider zeta functions: $Z(f ;P ;s)=\sum_{\m \in \N^{n}} f(m_1,..., m_n) P(m_1,..., m_n)^{-s/d}$ where $P \in \R [X_1,..., X_n]$ has degree $d$ and $f$ is a function arithmetic in origin, e.g. a multiplicative function. In this paper, I…
We prove that for n= 5, 6, 7, a nodal hypersurface of degree n in P^4 is factorial if it has at most (n-1)^2-1 nodes.
The classification of maximal function fields over a finite field is a difficult open problem, and even determining isomorphism classes among known function fields is challenging in general. We study a particular family of maximal function…
Let $L$ be a solvable Lie algebra of dimension less than or equal to 4 over finite fields. We compute and record, in explicit symbolic form, the zeta functions enumerating subalgebras or ideals of $L$, and study their properties. We also…
We introduce the multiple zeta functions with structures similar to those of symmetric functions such as Schur $P$-, Schur $Q$-, symplectic and orthogonal functions in the representation theory. We first consider their basic properties such…
We consider the Ruelle zeta function $R(s)$ of a genus $g$ hyperbolic Riemann surface with $n$ punctures and $v$ ramification points. $R(s)$ is equal to $Z(s)/Z(s+1)$, where $Z(s)$ is the Selberg zeta function. The main result of this work…
The local normal zeta functions of a finitely generated, torsion-free nilpotent group $G$ of class 2 depend on the geometry of the Pfaffian hypersurface associated to the bilinear form induced by taking commutators in $G$. The smallest…
We study the Ruelle zeta function at zero for negatively curved oriented surfaces with boundary. At zero, the zeta function has a zero and its multiplicity is shown to be determined by the Euler characteristic of the surface. This is shown…
It is known that Shintani zeta functions, which generalise multiple zeta functions, extend to meromorphic functions with poles on affine hyperplanes. We refine this result in showing that the poles lie on hyperplanes parallel to the facets…
We prove that if $X$ is a smooth projective variety of dimension greater than 1 over a field $K$ of characteristic zero such that $\operatorname{Pic}(X_{\bar{K}}) = \mathbb{Z}$ and $X_{\bar{K}}$ is simply connected, then the natural map…
Let R be a formal power series ring over a perfect field k of prime characteristic p, and let m be the maximal ideal of R. Suppose f is a non-zero element in m. In this paper, we introduce a function xi (x) associated with a hypersurface…
We develop a practical method for computing local zeta functions of groups, algebras, and modules in fortunate cases. Using our method, we obtain a complete classification of generic local representation zeta functions associated with…
In many cases one may encounter an integral which is of $q$-Mellin--Barnes type. These integrals are easily evaluated using theorems which have a long history dating back to Slater, Askey, Gasper, Rahman and others. We derive some…
We study the behaviour near s=1/2 of zeta functions of varieties over finite fields F_q with q a square. The main result is an Euler-characteristic formula for the square of the special value at s=1/2. The Euler-characteristic is…
We develop techniques for computing zeta functions associated with nilpotent groups, not necessarily associative algebras, and modules, as well as Igusa-type zeta functions. At the heart of our method lies an explicit convex-geometric…
In the article integer divisibility properties and related prime factors natural number representation concepts have been defined over the whole infinite hyperoperation hierarchy. The definitions have been made across and above of unique…
The Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ is defined as the infinite sum $\sum_{n=1}^\infty n^{-s}$, which converges when ${\rm Re}\,s>1$. The Riemann hypothesis asserts that the nontrivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ lie on the line ${\rm Re}\,s=…
