For a newform for Gamma_0(N) of even weight k, we prove that its attached p-adic L-function is not identically zero on the group Z_p of the p-adic units. If p >3, we prove that the order of vanishing at any p-adic integer is finite.

For primes p congruent to 1 mod 12, we present an explicit relation between the traces of Frobenius on a family of elliptic curves with j-invariant 1728/t and values of a particular 2F1-hypergeometric function over F_p. Additionally, we…

The main purpose of this note is to understand the arithmetic encoded in the special value of the $p$-adic $L$-function $\mathcal{L}_p^g(\mathbf{f},\mathbf{g},\mathbf{h})$ associated to a triple of modular forms $(f,g,h)$ of weights…

Let $f(z)={}_nF_{n-1}(\mathbf{\alpha},\mathbf{\beta})$ be the hypergeometric series with parameters $\mathbf{\alpha} = (\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_n)$ and $\mathbf{\beta} = (\beta_1,\ldots,\beta_{n-1},1)$ in $(\mathbb{Q}\cap(0,1])^n$, let…

We investigate the zeros of a family of hypergeometric polynomials $_2F_1(-n,-x;a;t)$, $n\in\nn$ that are known as the Meixner polynomials for certain values of the parameters $a$ and $t$. When $a=-N$, $N\in\nn$ and $t=\frac1{p}$, the…

In this article we review the observation, due originally to Dwork, that the zeta-function of an arithmetic variety, defined originally over the field with p elements, is a superdeterminant. We review this observation in the context of a…

We study uniqueness of $p$-harmonic Green functions in domains $\Omega$ in a complete metric space equipped with a doubling measure supporting a $p$-Poincar\'e inequality, with $1<p<\infty$. For bounded domains in unweighted $\mathbf{R}^n$,…

We describe a general method for giving $p$-adic interpretations of $G$-functions arising from degenerating periods of smooth projective algebraic varieties. Using this, we are able to implement a strategy due to Andr\'e for bounding…

We consider summation of some finite and infinite functional p-adic series with factorials. In particular, we are interested in the infinite series which are convergent for all primes p, and have the same integer value for an integer…

We study the theory of finite-order p-adic functions and distributions on ray class groups of number fields, and apply this to the construction of (possibly unbounded) p-adic L-functions for automorphic forms on GL(2) which may be…

Let $p$ be a prime, and let $\Gamma=\Sp_g(\Z)$ be the Siegel modular group of genus $g$. We study $p$-adic families of zeta functions and Siegel modular forms. $L$-functions of Siegel modular forms are described in terms of motivic…

A generic method to construct zero-difference functions (ZDFs) on algebraic rings is proposed in this paper. Then this method is used over some rings $\mathbb{Z}_{p^k}$, where $p$ is a prime number and $k\ge 2$ is a positive integer, and…

The classical prime geodesic theorem (PGT) gives an asymptotic formula (as $x$ tends to infinity) for the number of closed geodesics with length at most $x$ on a hyperbolic manifold $M$. Closed geodesics correspond to conjugacy classes of…

We give a self-contained proof of the fact that, for any prime number $p$, there exists a power series $$\Psi= \Psi_p(T) \in T + T^2\Z[[T]] $$ which trivializes the addition law of the formal group of Witt covectors is $p$-adically entire…

We compute explicitly Dirichlet generating functions enumerating finite-dimensional irreducible complex representations of various $p$-adic analytic and adelic profinite groups of type $\mathsf{A}_2$. This has consequences for the…

A method to calculate exact Green's functions on lattices in various dimensions is presented. Expressions in terms of generalized hypergeometric functions in one or more variables are obtained for various examples by relating the resolvent…

This work is devoted to study of algebraicty modulo p of Siegel's G-functions. Our goal is to emphasize the relevance of the notion of strong Frobenius structure, clasically studied in the theory of the p-adic diffenrential equations, for…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated pro-$p$ group, equipped with the $p$-power series. The associated metric and Hausdorff dimension function give rise to the Hausdorff spectrum, which consists of the Hausdorff dimensions of closed subgroups of…
