Let J be a Jacobian variety with toric reduction over a local field K. Let J -> E be an optimal quotient defined over K, where E is an elliptic curve. We give examples in which the functorially induced map \Phi_J -> \Phi_E on component…

Let $\frak{n}$ be a square-free ideal of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$. We study the rational torsion subgroup of the Jacobian variety $J_0(\frak{n})$ of the Drinfeld modular curve $X_0(\frak{n})$. We prove that for any prime number $\ell$ not dividing…

We investigate spectral properties of Kirchhoff Laplacians on radially symmetric antitrees. This class of metric graphs enjoys a rich group of symmetries, which enables us to obtain a decomposition of the corresponding Laplacian into the…

We consider a Laplacian on periodic discrete graphs. Its spectrum consists of a finite number of bands. In a class of periodic 1-forms, i.e., functions defined on edges of the periodic graph, we introduce a subclass of minimal forms with a…

We study higher order tangents and higher order Laplacians on p.c.f. self-similar sets with fully symmetric structures, such as $D3$ or $D4$ symmetric fractals. Firstly, let $x$ be a vertex point in the graphs that approximate the fractal,…

We present a method to control gonality of nonarchimedean curves based on graph theory. Let k denote a complete nonarchimedean valued field. We first prove a lower bound for the gonality of a curve over the algebraic closure of k in terms…

We consider the generalized Jacobian $\widetilde{J}$ of the modular curve $X_0(N)$ of level $N$ with respect to a reduced divisor consisting of all cusps. Supposing $N$ is square free, we explicitly determine the structure of the…

Consider the Drinfeld modular curve $X_0(\mathfrak{p})$ for $\mathfrak{p}$ a prime ideal of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$. It was previously known that if $j$ is the $j$-invariant of a Weierstrass point of $X_0(\mathfrak{p})$, then the reduction of $j$…

Let $\phi$ be a Drinfeld $A$-module of finite residual characteristic $\bar{\mathfrak{p}}$ over a local field $K$. We study the action of the inertia group of $K$ on a modified adelic Tate module $\smash{T^\circ_{\text{ad}}}(\phi)$ which…

Let $q = p^e \geq 7$ be an odd prime power, and set $A := \mathbb{F}_q[T]$. In this article, we construct an infinite two-parameter family of Drinfeld $A$-modules of rank $3$ such that, for every non-zero prime ideal $\mathfrak{l}$ of $A$,…

We obtain an asymptotic upper bound for the product of the $p$-parts of the orders of certain composition factors of a finite group acting completely reducibly and faithfully on a finite vector space of order divisible by a prime $p$. An…

Fix a nonzero level $\mathfrak{n} \in \mathbb{F}_q[T]$. In this paper, we first establish a function field analogue of Ligozat's theorem, which serves as our main result and provides a criterion for Drinfeld modular units on the Drinfeld…

We give regular models for modular curves associated with (normalizer of) split and non-split Cartan subgroups of ${\mathrm{GL}}_2 ({\mathbb F}_p )$ (for $p$ any prime, $p\ge 5$). We then compute the group of connected components of the…

We study expansions of Drinfeld modular forms of rank \(r \geq 2\) along the boundary of moduli varieties. Product formulas for the discriminant forms \(\Delta_{\mathfrak{n}}\) are developed, which are analogous with Jacobi's formula for…

For a given infinite connected graph $G=(V,E)$ and an arbitrary but fixed conductance function $c$, we study an associated graph Laplacian $\Delta_{c}$; it is a generalized difference operator where the differences are measured across the…

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…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is a prime power and let $A:= \mathbb{F}_{q}[T]$. By~\cite{PR09}, the adelic image of the Galois representation attached to a rank $2$ Drinfeld $A$-module $\varphi$ is open,…

In this paper we generalise the notion of Drinfeld modular form for the group $\Gamma$ := GL2(Fq[$\theta$]) to a vector-valued setting, where the target spaces are certain modules over positive characteristic Banach algebras over which are…

We say that a first order formula $\Phi$ defines a graph $G$ if $\Phi$ is true on $G$ and false on every graph $G'$ non-isomorphic with $G$. Let $D(G)$ be the minimal quantifier rank of a such formula. We prove that, if $G$ is a tree of…
