We establish new measures of linear independence of logarithms on commutative algebraic groups in the so-called \emph{rational case}. More precisely, let k be a number field and v_{0} be an arbitrary place of k. Let G be a commutative…

We consider the values at proper fractions of the arithmetic gamma function and the values at positive integers of the zeta function for F_q[theta] and provide complete algebraic independence results for them.

Plectic points were introduced by Fornea and Gehrmann as certain tensor products of local pointson elliptic curves over arbitrary number fields $F$. In rank $r\leq [F:\mathbb{Q}]$-situations, they conjecturally come from p-adic regulators…

Lucas atoms are irreducible factors of Lucas polynomials and they were introduced in \cite{ST}. The main aim of the authors was to investigate, from an innovatory point of view, when some combinatorial rational functions are actually…

As introduced by Gutman and Harary, the independence polynomial of a graph serves as the generating polynomial of its independent sets. In 1987, Alavi, Malde, Schwenk and Erd\H{o}s conjectured that the independence polynomials of all trees…

We obtain formulas relating $p$-adic cyclotomic multiple zeta values and cyclotomic multiple harmonic sums. In particular, we obtain a series formula for $p$-adic cyclotomic multiple zeta values, and conversely a formula for certain…

We construct $p$-adic $L$-functions interpolating critical $L$-values of algebraic Hecke characters for arbitrary unramified primes $p$ and any totally imaginary field. For non-ordinary primes, the only previously known case was that of…

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…

We show that $T_p(z)=\prod_{j=1}^{\infty}(1-z^{p^{j}})^{-1/p^{j}}$ is transcendental over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}(z)$, and establish the transcendence of its values at nonzero algebraic points inside the unit disk. Furthermore, we obtain an…

In this paper we apply Ax-Schanuel's Theorem to the ultraproduct of $p$-adic fields in order to get some results towards algebraic independence of $p$-adic exponentials for almost all primes $p$.

For each positive integer n, we determine the set of symmetric functions f for which the congruence f(p/1,p/2,...,p/(p-1)) \equiv 0 mod p^n holds for all sufficiently large primes p. Our determination is conditional on a conjecture…

We prove the $\boldsymbol{p}$-adic duality theorem for the finite star-multiple polylogarithms. That is a generalization of Hoffman's duality theorem for the finite multiple zeta-star values.

In this article, we construct new Pad\'{e} approximations for the \emph{product} of binomial functions and powers of logarithmic functions. While several explicit Pad\'{e} approximants are known for powers of exponential functions, binomial…

A fundamental property of Segre classes is their birational invariance. This invariance implies that the Segre class of a closed subscheme only depends on the integral closure of the defining ideal sheaf. In this paper, we show that,…

In this paper we deduce a lower bound for the rank of a family of $p$ vectors in $\R^k$ (considered as a vector space over the rationals) from the existence of a sequence of linear forms on $\R^p$, with integer coefficients, which are small…

We construct a five-variable $p$-adic $L$-function attached to Hida families on the definite unitary groups $U(3)$ and $U(2)$ by using the Ichino-Ikeda formula. The interpolation formula fits into the conjectural shape of $p$-adic…

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…

We implement an iterative numerical method to solve polynomial equations $f(x)=0$ in the $p$-adic numbers, where $f(x) \in\mathbb{Z}_p[x]$. This method is a simplified $p$-adic analogue of Jarratt's method for finding roots of functions…

We introduce a new type of $p$-adic hypergeometric functions, which are generalizations of $p$-adic hypergeometric functions of logarithmic type defined by Asakura, and show that these functions satisfy the congruence relations similar to…

We call shifted power a polynomial of the form $(x-a)^e$. The main goal of this paper is to obtain broadly applicable criteria ensuring that the elements of a finite family $F$ of shifted powers are linearly independent or, failing that, to…
