We introduce the notion of primitive elements in arbitrary truncated $p$-divisible groups. By design, the scheme of primitive elements is finite and locally free over the base. Primitive elements generalize the "points of exact order $N$,"…
We prove a local analogue of a theorem of J. Martinet about the absolute norm of the relative discriminant ideal of an extension of number fields. The result can be seen as a statement about 2-primary units. We also prove a similar…
Fix a number field $k$, integers $\ell, n \geq 2$, and a prime $p$. For all $r \geq 1$, we prove strong unconditional upper bounds on the $r$-th moment of $\ell$-torsion in the ideal class groups of degree $p$ extensions of $k$ and of…
Let p be a prime number which is split in an imaginary quadratic field k. Let \mathfrak{p} be a place of k above p. Let k_\infty be the unique Z_p-extension of k which unramified outside of \mathfrak{p}, and let K_\intfy be a finite…
First we show that the abscissae of uniform and absolute convergence of Dirichlet series coincide in the case of $L$-functions from the Selberg class $\mathcal{S}$. We also study the latter abscissa inside the extended Selberg class,…
We prove joint universality theorems on the half plane of absolute convergence for general classes of Dirichlet series with an Euler-product, where in addition to vertical shifts we also allow scaling. This generalizes our recent joint…
We state and prove a formula for a certain value of the Goss L-function of a Drinfeld module. This gives characteristic-p-valued function field analogues of the class number formula and of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. The…
Given a real abelian field F with group G and an odd prime number {\ell}, we define the circular subgroup of the pro-{\ell}-group of logarithmic units and we show that for any Galois morphism $\rho$ from the pro-{\ell}-group of logarithmic…
Inspired by results of Bayart on ordinary Dirichlet series $\sum a_n n^{-s}$, the main purpose of this article is to start an $\mathcal{H}_p$-theory of general Dirichlet series $\sum a_n e^{-\lambda_{n}s}$. Whereas the…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $\Bbbk$ a field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ a finite $p$-group. Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional linear representation of $G$ over $\Bbbk$. Write $S = \mathrm{Sym} V^*$. For a class of $p$-groups which we call…
Y\i ld\i r\i m has classified zeros of the derivatives of Dirichlet $L$-functions into trivial zeros, nontrivial zeros and vagrant zeros. In this paper we remove the possibility of vagrant zeros for $L'(s,\chi)$ when the conductors are…
We extend to the context of algebraic groups a classic result on extensions of abstract groups relating the set of isomorphism classes of extensions of $G$ by $H$ with that of extensions of $G$ by the center $Z$ of $H$. The proof should be…
For every odd prime $p$, we exhibit families of irreducible Artin representations $\tau$ with the property that for every elliptic curve $E$ the order of the zero of the twisted $L$-function $L(E,\tau,s)$ at $s\!=\!1$ must be a…
For any odd prime number $\ell$ and any abelian number field F containing the $\ell$-th roots of unity, we show that the Stickelberger ideal annihilates the imaginary component of the $\ell$-group of logarithmic classes and that its…
Under the generalized Lindel\"of Hypothesis in the t- and q-aspects, we bound exponential sums with coefficients of Dirichlet series belonging to a certain class. We use these estimates to establish a conditional result on squares of Hecke…
Let $F$ be a number field. Let $p$ be a prime number. Washington proved the $\ell$-part of the class numbers in cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$ extension of $F$ is bounded when $F$ is an abelian number field and $\ell\neq p$ is a prime. By class…
We determine the distribution of discriminants of wildly ramified elementary-abelian extensions of local and global function fields in characteristic $p$. For local and rational function fields, we also give precise formulae for the number…
We study dp-minimal infinite profinite groups that are equipped with a uniformly definable fundamental system of open subgroups. We show that these groups have an open subgroup $A$ such that either $A$ is a direct product of countably many…
We compute the first extension group from a simple object to a proper standard object and, in some cases, the first extension group from a simple object to a standard object in the principal block of an $\mathcal{S}$-subcategory of the BGG…
In this paper, we prove some zero density theorems for certain families of Dirichlet $L$-functions. More specifically, the subjects of our interest are the collections of Dirichlet $L$-functions associated with characters to moduli from…
