We fix a monic polynomial $\bar f(x) \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$, and consider the $\mathbb{Z}_{p^{\ell}}$-Artin-Schreier-Witt tower defined by $\bar f(x)$; this is a tower of curves $\cdots \to C_m \to…
We present techniques that allow to decide that the dimension of some pointed Hopf algebras associated with non-abelian groups is infinite. These results are consequences of arXiv:0803.2430v1. We illustrate each technique with applications.
We study the thermodynamic formalism associated with the Schneider map on the p-adic integers $p\mathbb{Z}_p$ . By introducing a geometric potential that captures the expansion of cylinder sets generated by the map, we define a Lyapunov…
$p$-adic continued fractions, as an extension of the classical concept of classical continued fractions to the realm of $p$-adic numbers, offering a novel perspective on number representation and approximation. While numerous $p$-adic…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of asymptotically positive infinite extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$, in the spirit of the Tsfasman-Vl\u{a}du\c{t} theory of asymptotically exact families of number fields. For asymptotically positive…
Let d>2 and let p be a prime coprime to d. Let Z_pbar be the ring of integers of Q_pbar. Suppose f(x) is a degree-d polynomial over Qbar and Z_pbar. Let P be a prime ideal over p in the ring of integers of Q(f), where Q(f) is the number…
An (asynchronous) automaton transformation of one-sided infinite words over p-letter alphabet Fp = Z/pZ, where p is a prime, is a continuous transformation (w.r.t. the p-adic metric) of the ring of p-adic integers Zp. Moreover, an automaton…
For any irrational $\alpha > 0$ and any initial value $z_{-1} \in \mathbb{C}$, we define a sequence of complex numbers $(z_n)_{n=0}^{\infty}$ as follows: $z_n$ is $z_{n-1} + e^{2 \pi i \alpha n}$ or $z_{n-1} - e^{2 \pi i \alpha n}$,…
We prove a uniform version of the Dynamical Mordell-Lang Conjecture for \'etale maps; also, we obtain a gap result for the growth rate of heights of points in an orbit along an arbitrary endomorphism of a quasiprojective variety defined…
We give a new proof of Howard's $\Lambda$-adic Gross-Zagier formula, which we extend to the context of indefinite Shimura curves over $\mathbf{Q}$ attached to nonsplit quaternion algebras. This formula relates the cyclotomic derivative of a…
In this paper, we follow two main goals. In the first attempt, we give some functorial properties of the $p$-analog of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebras in which we generalize some previously existed definitions and theorems in Arsac and…
Motivated by problems on random differences in Szemer\'{e}di's theorem and on large deviations for arithmetic progressions in random sets, we prove upper bounds on the Gaussian width of point sets that are formed by the image of the…
We study the dynamic structures of the monomial $x^m$ over the ring of $p$-adic integers for every positive integer $m$ and for primes $p=2,3$ and $5$. The dynamic structures are described by investigating minimal decompositions which…
A $p$-group $G$ is called *ab-maximal* if $|H : H'| < |G:G'|$ for every proper subgroup $H$ of $G$. Similarly, $G$ is called *$d$-maximal* if $d(H) < d(G)$ for every proper subgroup $H$ of $G$, where $d(H)$ is the minimal number of…
If $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_r$ are algebraic numbers such that $$N=\sum_{i=1}^r\alpha_i \ne \sum_{i=1}^r\alpha_i^{-1}$$ for some integer $N$, then a theorem of Beukers and Zagier gives the best possible lower bound on $$\sum_{i=1}^r\log…
It is proved that every two-dimensional residual Galois representation of the absolute Galois group of an arbitrary number field lifts to a characteristic zero $p$-adic representation, if local lifting problems at places above $p$ are…
(Dieudonn\'e and) Dwork's lemma gives a necessary and sufficient condition for an exponential of a formal power series $S(z)$ with coefficients in $Q_p$ to have coefficients in $Z_p$. We establish theorems on the $p$-adic valuation of the…
For non-negative integers $k\leq n$, we prove a combinatorial identity for the $p$-binomial coefficient $\binom{n}{k}_p$ based on abelian p-groups. A purely combinatorial proof of this identity is not known. While proving this identity, for…
The purpose of this paper is to prove integrality for certain $p$-adic iterated Coleman integrals. As underlying geometry we will take the complement of a divisor $D\subset X$ with good reduction, where $X$ is the projective line or an…
We define the $p$-adic trace of certain rank-one local systems on the multiplicative group over $p$-adic numbers, using Sekiguchi and Suwa's unification of Kummer and Artin-Schrier-Witt theories. Our main observation is that, for every…
