Let $q\ge 2$ and $N\ge 1$ be integers. W. Zhang (2008) has shown that for any fixed $\epsilon> 0$, and $q^{\epsilon} \le N \le q^{1/2 -\epsilon}$, $$ \sum_{\chi \ne \chi_0} |\sum_{n=1}^N \chi(n)|^2 |L(1, \chi)|^2 = (1 + o(1)) \alpha_q q N…
In a recent paper, Bilu et al. studied a conjecture of Marques and Lengyel on the $p$-adic valuation of the Tribonacci sequence. In this article, we study the $p$-adic valuation of third order linear recurrence sequences by considering a…
We generalize a semi-norm for the Alexander polynomial of a connected, compact, oriented 3-manifold on its first cohomology group to a semi-norm for an arbitrary Laurent polynomial f on the dual vector space to the space of exponents of f.…
When $p$ is an odd prime, Delbourgo observed that any Kubota-Leopoldt $p$-adic $L$-function, when multiplied by an auxiliary Euler factor, can be written as an infinite sum. We shall establish such expressions without restriction on $p$,…
We study the asymptotic representation for the zeros of the deformed exponential function $\sum\nolimits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac1{n!}{q^{n(n - 1)/2}{x^n}}} $, $q\in (0,1)$. Indeed, we obtain an asymptotic formula for these zeros: \[x_n=-…
In this article, we proove that it is equivalent for a generic irreducible representation of GL(n,K), with K a p-adic field, to be distinguished, and for its Rankin-Selberg Asai L-function to have an exceptional pole at zero. This extends a…
We obtain new bounds of exponential sums modulo a prime $p$ with sparse polynomials $a_0x^{n_0} + \cdots + a_{\nu}x^{n_\nu}$. The bounds depend on various greatest common divisors of exponents $n_0, \ldots, n_\nu$ and their differences. In…
Given primes $\ell\ne p$, we record here a $p$-adic valued Fourier theory on a local field over $\mathbf{Q}_\ell$, which is developed under the perspective of group schemes. As an application, by substituting rigid analysis for complex…
For the algebraic group $SL_{l+1}(\mathbb{C})$ we describe a system of positive roots associated to conjugacy classes in its Weyl group. Using this we explicitly describe the algebra of regular functions on certain transverse slices to…
Building on work of Kuhlmann and Lisinski, we study the theory of the Hahn series field $\mathbb{F}_{q}(\!(\mathbb{Q})\!)$, over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, equipped with the $t$-adic valuation, in a language of valued fields. We prove…
Given a polynomial with integral coefficients, one can inquire about the possible residues it can take in its image modulo a prime $p$. The sum over the distinct residues can sometimes be computed independent of the prime $p$; for example,…
We prove a version of both Jacobi's and Montel's Theorems for the case of continuous functions defined over the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. In particular, we prove that, if \[ \Delta_{h_0}^{m+1}f(x)=0 \ \ \text{for all}…
We give a self-contained proof of the fact that, for any prime number $p$, there exists a power series $$\Psi= \Psi_p(T) \in T + T^2\Z[[T]] $$ which trivializes the addition law of the formal group of Witt covectors is $p$-adically entire…
We introduce a triangular array $\widehat{\sf L}^{(\alpha)}$ of 5-variable homogeneous polynomials that enumerate Laguerre digraphs (digraphs in which each vertex has out-degree 0 or 1 and in-degree 0 or 1) with separate weights for peaks,…
The starting point of this paper are the Mittag-Leffler polynomials introduced by H. Bateman [1]. Based on generalized integer powers of real numbers and deformed exponential function, we introduce deformed Mittag-Leffler polynomials…
(Dieudonn\'e and) Dwork's lemma gives a necessary and sufficient condition for an exponential of a formal power series $S(z)$ with coefficients in $Q_p$ to have coefficients in $Z_p$. We establish theorems on the $p$-adic valuation of the…
The zeroes of Goss polynomials $G_{k, \Lambda}(X)$ for $\Lambda = A \defeq \mathbb{F}_{q}[T]$ and similar lattices $\Lambda$ are studied. Generically, the zero distribution follows a simple pattern governed by the $q$-adic expansion of…
In this paper, the authors deal with the $q$-Genocchi numbers and polynomials with weight zero. They discover some interesting relations via the $p$-adic $q$-integral on $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ and familiar basis Bernstein polynomials. Finally,…
it is the purpose of this paper to construct a p-adic continuous function for an odd prime to contain a p-adic q-analogue of higher order Dedekind type sums related to q-Euler polynomials and numbers.
Let $f: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{C}$ be a multiplicative function for which $$ \sum_{p : \, |f(p)| \neq 1} \frac{1}{p} = \infty. $$ We show under this condition alone that for any integer $h \neq 0$ the set $$ \{n \in \mathbb{N} : f(n) =…
