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…

In this paper, we formulate the Drinfeld module analogue of a question raised by Lang and studied by Katz on the existence of rational points on abelian varieties over number fields. Given a maximal ideal $\fl$ of $\F_q[T]$, the question…

We generalize our work on Carlitz prime power torsion extension to torsion extensions of Drinfeld modules of arbitrary rank. As in the Carlitz case, we give a description of these extensions in terms of evaluations of Anderson generating…

To each Drinfeld module over a finitely generated field with generic characteristic, one can associate a Galois representation arising from the Galois action on its torsion points. Recent work of Pink and R\"utsche has described the image…

In this short note, we answer a question raised by M. Papikian on a universal upper bound for the degree of the extension of $K_\infty$ given by adjoining the periods of a Drinfeld module of rank 2. We show that contrary to the rank 1 case…

We study rational points and torsion points on Drinfeld modular curves defined over rational function fields. As a consequence we derive a conjecture of Schweizer describing completely the torsion of Drinfeld modules of rank two over $\Bbb…

We work with detail the Drinfeld module over the ring $$A=F_2[x,y]/(y^2+y=x^3+x+1).$$ The example in question is one of the four examples that come from quadratic imaginary fields with class number $h = 1$ and rank one. We develop specific…

Lower Bound for the Canonical Height for Drinfeld Modules with Complex Multiplication. Let K be a fi nite extension of Fq(T), let L=K be a Galois extension with Galois group G and let E be the sub eld of L fixed by the center of G. Assume…

We study a relation between the Drinfeld modules and the even dimensional noncommutative tori. A non-abelian class field theory is developed based on this relation. Explicit generators of the Galois extensions are constructed.

We establish a fundamental breakthrough in rank-one Drinfeld module arithmetic by deriving explicit formulas over the integral domain $\A = H^{0}(\mathbb{P}^1-P_{\rho}, \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1})$, which generalizes the classical…

In this paper, we give an explicit bound on the irreducibility of mod-$\mathfrak{l}$ Galois representation for Drinfeld modules of arbitrary rank without complex multiplication. This is a function field analogue of Masser-W\"ustholz bound…

We study the group of extensions in the category of Drinfeld modules and Anderson's t-modules, and we show in certain cases that this group can itself be given the structure of a t-module. Our main result is a Drinfeld module analogue of…

Let $K/k$ be a finite Galois extension of global function fields. Let $E$ be a Drinfeld module over $k$. We state and prove an equivariant refinement of Taelman's analogue of the analytic class number formula for $(E,K/k)$, and derive…

We show that the module of integral points on a Drinfeld module satisfies a an analogue of Dirichlet's unit theorem, despite its failure to be finitely generated. As a consequence, we obtain a construction of a canonical finitely generated…

Let $F$ be a local non-Archimedean field with ring of integers $o$. Let $\bf X$ be a one-dimensional formal $o$-module of $F$-height $n$ over the algebraic closure of the residue field of $o$. By the work of Drinfeld, the universal…

In this paper, we study the surjectivity of adelic Galois representation associated to Drinfeld $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$-modules over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ of rank $2$ in the cases when $q$ is even or $q=3$.

Let $q$ be a power of the prime number $p$, let $K={\mathbb F}_q(t)$, and let $r\ge 2$ be an integer. For points ${\mathbf a}, {\mathbf b}\in K$ which are $\mathbb{F}_q$-linearly independent, we show that there exist positive constants…

In the arithmetic of function fields, Drinfeld modules play the role that elliptic curves play in the arithmetic of number fields. The aim of this paper is to study a non-existence problem of Drinfeld modules with constrains on torsion…

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…

In this paper a Kummer theory of division points over rank one Drinfeld A=Fq[T]-modules defined over global function fields was given. The results are in complete analogy with the classical Kummer theory of division points over the…
