We determine when an arithmetic subgroup of a reductive group defined over a global function field is of type FP_\infty by comparing its large-scale geometry to the large-scale geometry of lattices in real semisimple Lie groups.

Moments for hypergeometric functions over finite fields were studied in the work of Ono, Pujahari, Saad, and Saikia for several $_{2}F_{1}$ and $_{3}F_{2}$ cases. We generalize their work to prove results for new cases where the…

We begin by defining general hypergeometric functions over finite fields and obtaining a finite field analogue of a classical symmetry in their complex counterparts. We give a geometric proof for the symmetry by constructing isomorphisms…

Physicists showed that the generating function of orbifold elliptic genera of symmetric orbifolds can be written as an infinite product. We show that there exists a geometric factorization on space level behind this infinite product formula…

This is a first part of a series of papers in which we develop explicit computational methods for automorphic forms for GL(3) and PGL(3) over elliptic function fields. In this first part, we determine explicit formulas for the action of the…

Building on the developments of many people including Evans, Greene, Katz, McCarthy, Ono, Roberts, and Rodriguez-Villegas, we consider period functions for hypergeometric type algebraic varieties over finite fields and consequently study…

In \cite{mccarthy2}, McCarthy defined a function $_{n}G_{n}[\cdots]$ using the Teichm\"{u}ller character of finite fields and quotients of the $p$-adic gamma function. This function extends hypergeometric functions over finite fields to the…

Finite hypergeometric functions are complex valued functions on finite fields which are the analogue of the classical analytic hypergeometric functions. From the work of N.M.Katz it follows that their values are traces of Frobenius on…

We consider natural polynomial truncations of hypergeometric power series defined over finite fields. For these truncations, we establish asymptotic upper bounds of order $O(p^{11/12})$ on the number of roots in the prime field…

We give an expression for number of points for the family of Dwork K3 surfaces $$X_{\lambda}^4: \hspace{.1in} x_1^4+x_2^4+x_3^4+x_4^4=4\lambda x_1x_2x_3x_4$$ over finite fields of order $q\equiv 1\pmod 4$ in terms of Greene's finite field…

We identify two seemingly disparate structures: supercharacters, a useful way of doing Fourier analysis on the group of unipotent uppertriangular matrices with coefficients in a finite field, and the ring of symmetric functions in…

We study rational functions over finite fields under PGL-equivalence. We say that $f, g \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ are \emph{equivalent} if there exist $\psi, \phi \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ of degree one such that $g = \psi \circ f \circ \phi$. Most…

We find summation identities and transformations for the McCarthy's $p$-adic hypergeometric series by evaluating certain Gauss sums which appear while counting points on the family $$Z_{\lambda}: x_1^d+x_2^d=d\lambda x_1x_2^{d-1}$$ over a…

We prove finite field analogues of integral representations of Appell- Lauricella hypergeometric functions in many variables. We consider certain hypersurfaces having a group action and compute the numbers of rational points associated with…

In this work we present an explicit relation between the number of points on a family of algebraic curves over $\F_{q}$ and sums of values of certain hypergeometric functions over $\F_{q}$. Moreover, we show that these hypergeometric…

We define a function in terms of quotients of the $p$-adic gamma function which generalizes earlier work of the author on extending hypergeometric functions over finite fields to the $p$-adic setting. We prove, for primes $p > 3$, that the…

Hyperstructures are a natural extension of regular algebraic structures in which one of the operations, known as the hyperoperation, is multivalued; a hyperfield is such an extension on a field. M. Krasner (1962) proved that the quotient…

We define a hypergeometric function over finite fields which is an analogue of the classical generalized hypergeometric series. We prove that this function satisfies many transformation and summation formulas. Some of these results are…

For a fixed prime p, we consider the (finite) set of supersingular elliptic curves over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}$. Hecke operators act on this set. We compute the asymptotic frequence with which a given supersingular elliptic curve visits another…
