In this paper we investigate examples of good and optimal Drinfeld modular towers of function fields. Surprisingly, the optimality of these towers has not been investigated in full detail in the literature. We also give an algorithmic…

Over all non-prime finite fields, we construct some recursive towers of function fields with many rational places. Thus we obtain a substantial improvement on all known lower bounds for Ihara's quantity $A(\ell)$, for $\ell = p^n$ with $p$…

In this paper, we will give an overview of known and new techniques on how one can obtain explicit equations for candidates of good towers of function fields. The techniques are founded in modular theory (both the classical modular theory…

We introduce two new types of towers of Drinfeld modular curves. These towers originate from a specific domain $\mathcal{A} $ and are analogous to the towers of rank-two Drinfeld modular curves over the polynomial ring. Specifically, the…

The Drinfeld module is a tool of the explicit class field theory for the function fields. We first observe a similarity of such modules with the noncommutative tori, and then use it to develop an explicit class field theory for the number…

This article is the first one of a series aiming to construct an isomorphism between the p-adic Lubin-Tate and Drinfeld towers, describe this isomorphism and give applications. We construct a p-adic equivariant integral model of the…

Elaborating on ideas of Elkies, we show how recursive equations for towers of Drinfeld modular curves $(X_0(P^n))_{n\ge 0}$ for $P\in \mathbb F_q[T]$ can be read of directly from the modular polynomial $\Phi_P(X,Y)$ and how this naturally…

Let us consider an algebraic function field defined over a finite Galois extension $K$ of a perfect field $k$. We give some conditions allowing the descent of the definition field of the algebraic function field from $K$ to $k$. We apply…

Let p and l be two distinct primes. We show how, under a certain congruence hypothesis, the mod l cohomology of the Lubin-Tate tower together with a certain Lefschetz operator provides a geometric interpretation of Vigneras' Langlands…

In this article we construct the isomorphism between Lubin-Tate and Drinfeld towers at the level of points. The points we consider are the one of the theory of analytic spaces in the sens of Berkovich.

We provide a proof of the Alpern multi-tower theorem for Z^d actions. We reformulate the theorem as a problem of measurably tiling orbits of a Z^d action by a collection of rectangles whose corresponding sides have no non-trivial common…

New functional representation for the strongly interacting systems is proposed which contains a new type of the quantum coherent state. As a result the new algebraic structure- so called "tower of algebras" appears which gives the tower (or…

We give explicit equations for the simplest towers of Drinfeld modular curves over any finite field, and observe that they coincide with the asymptotically optimal towers of curves constructed by Garcia and Stichtenoth.

In this paper we study the problem of constructing non-trivial subtowers and supertowers of recursive towers of function fields over finite fields.

Certain towers of function fields with complete splitting of rational places at each stage are constructed. Also, families oof towers with positive N/g ratios are described.

The aim of this article is twofold: first, improve the multiplicity estimate obtained by the second author for Drinfeld quasi-modular forms; and then, study the structure of certain algebras of "almost-$A$-quasi-modular forms"

In 2000, based on his procedure for constructing explicit towers of modular curves, Elkies deduced explicit equations of rank-2 Drinfeld modular curves which coincide with the asymptotically optimal towers of curves constructed by Garcia…

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…

For a finite extension $F$ of ${\mathbf Q}_p$, Drinfeld defined a tower of coverings of ${\mathbb P}^1\setminus {\mathbb P}^1(F)$ (the Drinfeld half-plane). For $F = {\mathbf Q}_p$, we describe a decomposition of the $p$-adic geometric…

We give effective bounds for the class number of any algebraic function field of genus $g$ defined over a finite field. These bounds depend on the possibly partial information on the number of places on each degree $\leq g$. Such bounds are…
