We report on $25$ families of projective Calabi-Yau threefolds that do not have a point of maximal unipotent monodromy in their moduli space. The construction is based on an analysis of certain pencils of octic arrangements that were found…
In a recent paper Z\'u\~niga-Galindo and the author begun the study of the local zeta functions for Laurent polynomials. In this work we continue this study by giving a very explicit formula for the local zeta function associated to a…
To a polynomial $f$ over a non-archimedean local field $K$ and a character $\chi$ of the group of units of the valuation ring of $K$ one associates Igusa's local zeta function $Z(s,f,\chi)$. In this paper, we study the local zeta function…
We define motivic analogues of Igusa's local zeta functions. These functions take their values in a Grothendieck group of Chow motives. They specialize to p-adic Igusa local zeta functions and to the topological zeta functions we introduced…
We investigate the modularity of three non-rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds with bad reduction at 11 which arise as fibre products of rational elliptic surfaces. For this purpose, we apply a method by Serre to compare two-dimensional 2-adic…
We give a polynomial time algorithm for computing the Igusa local zeta function $Z(s,f)$ attached to a polynomial $f(x)\in \QTR{Bbb}{Z}[x]$, in one variable, with splitting field $\QTR{Bbb}{Q}$, and a prime number $p$. We also propose a new…
In earlier work, the author introduced a method for constructing a Frobenius categorification of a cluster algebra with frozen variables by starting from the data of an internally Calabi-Yau algebra, which becomes the endomorphism algebra…
It has been found experimentally by Brown and Schnetz that the number of points over ${\mathbb F}_p$ of a graph hypersurface is often related to the coefficients of a modular form. In this paper I prove this relation for one example of a…
We describe a variation of Dworks unit-root method to determine the degree four Frobenius polynomial for members of a 1-modulus Calabi-Yau family over $\mathbb{P}^1$ in terms of the holomorphic period near a point of maximal unipotent…
We give an explicit formula for the subalgebra zeta function of a general 3-dimensional Lie algebra over the p-adic integers $\mathbb{Z}_p$. To this end, we associate to such a Lie algebra a ternary quadratic form over $\mathbb{Z}_p$. The…
The analysis of type IIB flux vacua on warped Calabi--Yau orientifolds becomes considerably involved for a large number of complex structure fields. We however show that, for a quadratic flux superpotential, one can devise simplifying…
We introduce new zeta functions related to an endomorphism $\phi$ of a discrete group $\Gamma$. They are of two types: counting numbers of fixed ($\rho\sim \rho\circ\phi^n$) irreducible representations for iterations of $\phi$ from an…
We consider the fourteen families $W$ of Calabi-Yau threefolds with one complex structure parameter and Picard-Fuchs equation of hypergeometric type, like the mirror of the quintic in $\mathbb{P}^4$. Mirror symmetry identifies the masses of…
In this contribution we announce a complete classification and new exotic phenomena of the meromorphic structure of $\z$-functions associated to conic manifolds proved in \cite{KLP1}. In particular, we show that the meromorphic extensions…
We introduce a new method to compute explicit formulae for various zeta functions associated to groups and rings. The specific form of these formulae enables us to deduce local functional equations. More precisely, we prove local functional…
In this paper, we give an overview of the various general methods in computing the zeta function of an algebraic variety defined over a finite field, with an emphasis on computing the reduction modulo $p^m$ of the zeta function of a…
We present a method for numerical computation of period integrals of a rigid Calabi-Yau threefold using Picard-Fuchs operator of a one-parameter smoothing. Our method gives a possibility of computing the lattice of period integrals of a…
It is known that local zeta functions associated with real analytic functions can be analytically continued as meromorphic functions to the whole complex plane. But, in the case of general ($C^{\infty}$) smooth functions, the meromorphic…
Let $X_\lambda$ and $X_\lambda'$ be monomial deformations of two Delsarte hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces. In this paper we give a sufficient condition so that their zeta functions have a common factor. This generalises results…
In [1] some quotients of one-parameter families of Calabi-Yau varieties are related to the family of Mirror Quintics by using a construction due to Shioda. In this paper, we generalize this construction to a wider class of varieties. More…
