Let L be a bounded distributive lattice. We give several characterizations of those L^n --> L mappings that are polynomial functions, i.e., functions which can be obtained from projections and constant functions using binary joins and…
This paper provides a realization of all classical and most exceptional finite groups of Lie type as Galois groups over function fields over F_q and derives explicit additive polynomials for the extensions. Our unified approach is based on…
In this paper, using $p$-adic analysis and $p$-adic L-functions, we show how to extend classical congruences (due to Wilson, Gauss, Dirichlet, Jacobi, Wolstenholme, Glaisher, Morley, Lemher and other people) to modulo $p^k$ for any $k>0$.
Results on $L$-functions of Artin-Schreier coverings by Dwork, Bombieri and Adolphson-Sperber are generalized to $L$-functions of Witt coverings.
A well-known principle states that a congruence between objects should give rise to a corresponding congruence between the special values of $L$-functions attached to these objects. In this article, using the machinery of Eisenstein…
Noncommutative functions are graded functions between sets of square matrices of all sizes over two vector spaces that respect direct sums and similarities. They possess very strong regularity properties (reminiscent of the regularity…
In the 1960s, Dwork developed a p-adic cohomology theory of de Rham type for varieties over finite fields, based on a trace formula for the action of a Frobenius operator on certain spaces of p-adic analytic functions. One can consider a…
This paper establishes a purely syntactic representation for the category of algebraic L-domains with Scott-continuous functions as morphisms. The central tool used here is the notion of logical states, which builds a bridge between…
For a partial lattice L the so-called two-point extension is defined in order to extend L to a lattice. We are motivated by the fact that the one-point extension broadly used for partial algebras does not work in this case, i.e. the…
In this paper, as an analogue of the integer case, we define congruence preserving functions over the residue class rings of polynomials over finite fields. We establish a counting formula for such congruence preserving functions, determine…
Dwork's conjecture, now proven by Wan, states that unit root L-functions "coming from geometry" are p-adic meromorphic. In this paper we study the p-adic variation of a family of unit root L-functions coming from a suitable family of toric…
We introduce new p-adic convergent functions, which we call the p-adic hypergeometric functions of logarithmic type. The first main result is to prove the congruence relations that are similar to Dwork's. The second main result is that the…
We prove finiteness results on integral points on complements of large divisors in projective varieties over finitely generated fields of characteristic zero. To do so, we prove a function field analogue of arithmetic finiteness results of…
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…
Following Deligne and Ribet (`Values of abelian $L$-functions at negative integers over totally real fields.' Invent. Math. 59 (1980), 227-286) we prove that the `torsion congruences' (as introduced in our paper `Non-abelian pseudomeasures…
Determination of linear combination of exponential functions with unknown rate constants from its sampled values is a problem of considerable interest. Here we present a constructive and explicit solution to this problem. Moments of such…
In this paper, using the concept of $A$-statistical convergence which is a regular (non-matrix) summability method, we obtain a general Korovkin type approximation theorem which concerns the problem of approximating a function $f$ by means…
In this paper we give simple extension and uniqueness theorems for restricted additive and logarithmic functional equations.
In this paper, we state and prove some congruence properties for the trinomial coeficients, one of which is similar to the Wolstenholme's theorem.
While examples of Ramanujan-type congruences are amply available via their relation to Hecke operators, it remains unclear which of them should be considered of combinatorial origin and which of them are mere artifacts of the connection…
