We examine hypergeometric functions in the finite field, p-adic and classical settings. In each setting, we prove a formula which splits the hypergeometric function into a sum of lower order functions whose arguments differ by roots of…

We study the p-adic valuations of roots of L-functions associated with certain families of exponential sums of Laurent polynomials in n variables over a finite field. The families we consider are reflection and Kloosterman variants of…

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of…

For a polynomial $f(x)$ in $(\mathbb{Z}_p\cap \mathbb{Q})[x]$ of degree $d>2$ let $L(f \bmod p;T)$ be the $L$-function of the exponential sum of $f \bmod p$. Let $\mathrm{NP}(f \bmod p)$ denote the Newton polygon of $L(f \bmod p;T)$. Let…

We construct p-adic relative cohomology for a family of toric exponential sums which generalize the classical Kloosterman sums. Under natural hypotheses such as quasi-homogeneity and nondegeneracy, this cohomology is acyclic except in the…

In this paper we give a modular interpretation of the $k$-th symmetric power $L$-function of the Kloosterman family of exponential sums in characteristics 2 and 3, and in the case of $p=2$ and $k$ odd give the precise 2-adic Newton polygon.…

The symmetric power L-function of the hyper-Kloosterman family is a rational function over the integers. Its degree and complex absolute values of its zeros and poles are now known through the work of Fu and Wan. The purpose of this paper…

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…

This paper looks at the L-function of the k-th symmetric power of the ell-adic sheaf over the affine line associated to the generalized Airy family of exponential sums. We compute the degree of this rational function and the local factors…

Let $f_{\mathrm{new}}$ be a classical newform of weight $\geq 2$ and prime to $p$ level. We study the arithmetic of $f_{\mathrm{new}}$ and its unique $p$-stabilisation $f$ when $f_{\mathrm{new}}$ is $p$-irregular, that is, when its Hecke…

In this paper, we compute the $q$-adic slopes of the L-functions of an important class of exponential sums arising from analytic number theory. Our main tools include Adolphson-Sperber's work on toric exponential sums and Wan's…

We prove a strong form of the trivial zero conjecture at the central point for the $p$-adic $L$-function of a non-critically refined self-dual cohomological cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_2$ over a totally real field,…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ denote the finite field of order $q$ (a power of a prime $p$). We study the $p$-adic valuations for zeros of $L$-functions associated with exponential sums of the following family of Laurent polynomials…

We introduce and develop $(\pi,p)$-adic Dwork theory for $L$-functions of exponential sums associated to one-variable rational functions, interpolating $p^k$-order exponential sums over affinoids. Namely, we prove a generalization of the…

We identify the $p$-adic unit roots of the zeta function of a projective hypersurface over a finite field of characteristic $p$ as the eigenvalues of a product of special values of a certain matrix of $p$-adic series. That matrix is a…

We construct a meromorphic function on the eigencurve that interpolates a square root of the ratio of the central values of two quadratic twists of the $L$-function at classical points.

We construct a $p$-adic $L$-function for $P$-ordinary Hida families of cuspidal automorphic representations on a unitary group $G$. The main new idea of our work is to incorporate the theory of Schneider-Zink types for the Levi quotient of…

Considering the L-function of exponential sums associated to a polynomial over a finite field F_q, Deligne proved that a reciprocal root's p-adic order is a rational number in the interval [0, 1]. Based on hypergeometric theory, in this…

We show that the finite part of the adjoint $L$ function (including contributions from all nonarchimedean places, including ramified places) is holomorphic in $\Re(s) \ge 1/2$ for a cuspidal automorphic representation of $GL_3$ over a…

The $L$-function of exponential sums associated to the generic polynomial of degree $d$ in $n$ variables over a finite field of characteristic $p$ is studied. A polygon called the Frobenius polygon of the generic polynomial of degree $d$ in…
