We express the number of points on the Dwork hypersurface $$X_{\lambda}^d: x_1^d+x_2^d+\cdots +x_d^d=d\lambda x_1x_2\cdots x_d$$ over a finite field of order $q \not \equiv 1 \pmod{d}$ in terms of McCarthy's $p$-adic hypergeometric function…

The number of points on a certain one parameter family of algebraic surface over a finite field $\F_p$ can be expressed as $p^2+A_p(\lambda),$ where $A_p(\lambda)$ is a character sum and $\lambda$ is an element of the finite field $\F_p.$…

We investigate the space $X$ of unitary hermitian matrices over $\frp$-adic fields through spherical functions. First we consider Cartan decomposition of $X$, and give precise representatives for fields with odd residual characteristic,…

We study the linear fractional transformations in the Hecke group $G(\Phi)$ where $\Phi$ is either root of $x^2 - x -1$ (the larger root being the "golden ratio" $\phi = 2 \cos \frac {\pi}5$.) Let $g \in G(\Phi)$ and let $z$ be a generic…
