The paper reviews Dwork's p-adic analytic methods used in the Weil Conjectures. The first two chapters review a version of his proof of the rationality conjecture. The rest of the paper is devoted to Dwork's original cohomological methods,…

In recent years L-functions and their analytic properties have assumed a central role in number theory and automorphic forms. In this expository article, we describe the two major methods for proving the analytic continuation and functional…

The zeta function of a motive over a finite field is multiplicative with respect to the direct sum of motives. It has beautiful analytic properties, as were predicted by the Weil conjectures. There is also a multiplicative zeta function,…

In this article, we introduce a systematic new method to investigate the conjectural p-adic meromorphic continuation of Professor Bernard Dwork's unit root zeta function attached to an ordinary family of algebraic varieties defined over a…

This is an expository paper which gives a simple arithmetic introduction to the conjectures of Weil and Dwork concerning zeta functions of algebraic varieties over finite fields. A number of further open questions are raised.

Begin with the Hasse-Weil zeta-function of a smooth projective variety over the rational numbers. Replace the variety with a finite CW-complex, replace etale cohomology with complex K-theory $KU^*$, and replace the $p$-Frobenius operator…

In one of his papers, using arguments about l-adic representations, Taniyama expresses the zeta function of an abelian variety over a number field as an infinite product of modified Artin L-functions. The latter can be further decomposed as…

With respect to the analytic-algebraic dichotomy, the theory of Siegel modular forms of half-integral weight is lopsided; the analytic theory is strong whereas the algebraic lags behind. In this paper, we capitalise on this to establish the…

We derive several identities for the Hurwitz and Riemann zeta functions, the Gamma function, and Dirichlet $L$-functions. They involve a sequence of polynomials $\alpha_k(s)$ whose study was initiated in an earlier paper. The expansions…

Siegel defined zeta functions associated with indefinite quadratic forms, and proved their analytic properties such as analytic continuations and functional equations. Coefficients of these zeta functions are called measures of…

We describe the topology of superlevel sets of ($\alpha$-stable) L\'evy processes X by introducing so-called stochastic $\zeta$-functions, which are defined in terms of the widely used $\text{Pers}_p$-functional in the theory of persistence…

These expository notes introduce $p$-adic $L$-functions and the foundations of Iwasawa theory. We focus on Kubota--Leopoldt's $p$-adic analogue of the Riemann zeta function, which we describe in three different ways. We first present a…

In this note we propose a new construction of cyclotomic p-adic L-functions attached to classical modular cuspidal eigenforms. This allows us to cover most known cases to date and provides a method which is amenable to generalizations to…

We construct an Euler system of $p$-adic zeta elements over the eigencurve which interpolates Kato's zeta elements over all classical points. Applying a big regulator map gives rise to a purely algebraic construction of a two-variable…

In this paper we obtain new infinite sets of $\zeta$-equivalents of the Fermat-Wiles theorem based on the elementary Fourier orthogonal system, Riemann's zeta-function and Jacob's ladders.

The statement of the Riemann hypothesis makes sense for all global fields, not just the rational numbers. For function fields, it has a natural restatement in terms of the associated curve. Weil's work on the Riemann hypothesis for curves…

In this paper we show how one can combine the p-adic Rankin-Selberg product construction of Hida with freeness results of Hecke modules of Wiles to establish interesting congruences between special values of L-functions. These congruences…

Given a projective variety X defined over a finite field, the zeta function of divisors attempts to count all irreducible, codimension one subvarieties of X, each measured by their projective degree. When the dimension of X is greater than…

We construct the p-adic zeta function for a one-dimensional (as a p-adic Lie extension) non-commutative p-extension of a totally real number field such that the finite part of its Galois group is a pgroup with exponent p. We first calculate…

We study zeta functions enumerating finite-dimensional irreducible complex linear representations of compact p-adic analytic and of arithmetic groups. Using methods from p-adic integration, we show that the zeta functions associated to…
