We obtain explicit upper and lower bounds on the size of the coefficients of the Drinfeld modular polynomials $\Phi_N$ for any monic $N\in\mathbb{F}_q[t]$. These polynomials vanish at pairs of $j$-invariants of Drinfeld…

Let $q$ be an odd prime power, $a \in \mathbb{F}_q[T]$ and $u \in \mathbb{F}_q^*$. Provided $q \geq 17$, we compute the average number of primes $p$ for which the characteristic polynomial of the Frobenius at $p$ is $X^2 - aX + up$ over a…

We discuss many analogy points with the elliptic curves. more precisely, we study the characteristic polynomial of a Drinfeld module of rank 2 and use it to calculate the number of isogeny classes for such modules.

It is conjectured that for fixed $A$, $r \ge 1$, and $d \ge 1$, there is a uniform bound on the size of the torsion submodule of a Drinfeld $A$-module of rank $r$ over a degree $d$ extension $L$ of the fraction field $K$ of $A$. We verify…

This first part of the paper describes the support of top graded local cohomology modules. As a corrolary one obtains a simple criteria for the vanishing of these modules and also the fact that they have finitely many minimal primes. The…

It is often stated that the Carlitz module is to the ring of univariate polynomials over a finite field what the multiplicative group is to the ring of integers. This analogy extends to the "rank 2" case, where Drinfeld modules play a role…

We investigate Drinfeld modular polynomials parametrizing $T$-isogenies between Drinfeld $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$-modules of rank $r\geq 2$. By providing an explicit classification of such isogenies, we derive explicit bounds on the $T$-degrees of…

We study the classification of submodules of module categories over monoidal categories, extending ideas of Coulembier on the classification of tensor ideals in monoidal categories. We develop a framework that applies to module categories…

In this paper, we develop a view of self-isogenous modular polynomials and the $\mathfrak{l}$-cyclic isogeny graph for CM Drinfeld modules of arbitrary rank $r$. On the computational side, we give an explicit procedure to construct the…

The modular invariant of rank 1 Drinfeld modules is introduced and used to formulate and prove an exact analog of the Weber-Fueter theorem for global function fields. The main ingredient in the proof is a version of Shimura's Main Theorem…

Let $\psi: A \to F\{\tau\}$ be a Drinfeld $A$-module over $F$ of rank 2 and without complex multiplication, where $A = {\mathbb{F}}_q[T]$, $F = {\mathbb{F}}_q(T)$, and $q$ is an odd prime power. For a prime $\mathfrak{p} = p A$ of $A$ of…

We provide explicit series expansions for the exponential and logarithm functions attached to a rank r Drinfeld module that generalize well known formulas for the Carlitz exponential and logarithm. Using these results we obtain a procedure…

We define successive minimal bases (SMBs) for the space of $u^{n}$-division points of a Drinfeld $\mathbb{F}_{q}[t]$-module over a local field, where $u$ is a finite prime of $\mathbb{F}_{q}[t]$ and $n$ is a positive integer. These SMBs…

We define the Frobenius limit of a module over a ring of prime characteristic to be the limit of the normalized Frobenius direct images in a certain Grothendieck group. When a finite group acts on a polynomial ring, we calculate this limit…

The first aim of this work is to characterize when the lattice of all submodules of a module is a direct product of two lattices. In particular, which decompositions of a module $M$ produce these decompositions: the \emph{lattice…

We generalize Drinfeld's notion of the center of a tensor category to bicategories. In this generality, we present a spectral sequence to compute the basic invariants of Drinfeld centers: the abelian monoid of isomorphism classes of…

Let $\Phi $ be a Drinfeld $\mathbf{F}_{q}[T]$-module of rank 2, over a finite field $L$, a finite extension of $n$ degrees for a finite field with $q$ elements $% \mathbf{F}_{q}$. Let $P_{\Phi}(X)=$ $X^{2}-cX+\mu P^{m}$ ($c$ an element of…

We introduce a new invariant for local rings of prime characteristic, called Frobenius complexity, that measures the abundance of Frobenius actions on the injective hull of the residue field of a local ring. We present an important case…

In "Frobenius Categories versus Brauer Blocks", Progress in Math. 274, we have introduced the Frobenius categories F over a finite p-group P, and we have associated to F - suitably endowed with some central k*-extensions - a "Grothendieck…

We present a new notion of distribution and derived distribution of rank $r \in \mathbb{N}$ for a global function field $K$ with a distinguished place $\infty$. It allows to describe the relations between division points, isogenies, and…
