Dwork's conjecture, now proven by Wan, states that unit root L-functions "coming from geometry" are p-adic meromorphic. In this paper we study the p-adic variation of a family of unit root L-functions coming from a suitable family of toric…

Starting from a classical generating series for Bessel functions due to Schlomilch, we use Dwork's relative dual theory to broadly generalize unit-root results of Dwork on Kloosterman sums and Sperber on hyperkloosterman sums. In…

As a consequence of Wan's theorem about Dwork's conjecture, the unit root $L$-functions of the $n$-dimensional Kloosterman family are $p$-adic meromorphic. By studying the symmetric power $L$-functions associated to the Kloosterman family,…

In this paper, we completely determine the slopes and weights of the L-functions of an important class of exponential sums arising from analytic number theory. Our main tools include Adolphson-Sperber's work on toric exponential sums and…

We consider arbitrary algebraic families of lower order deformations of nondegenerate toric exponential sums over a finite field. We construct a relative polytope with the aid of which we define a ring of coefficients consisting of p-adic…

In this paper, we focus on a family of generalized Kloosterman sums over the torus. With a few changes to Haessig and Sperber's construction, we derive some relative $p$-adic cohomologies corresponding to the $L$-functions. We present…

The infinity symmetric power $L$-functions play a fundamental role in Wan's groundbreaking work on Dwork's conjecture[16]. Building upon this foundation, Haessig[8] established the $p$-adic estimates for these $L$-functions in the case of…

In this brief note, we consider p-adic unit roots or poles of L-functions of exponential sums defined over finite fields. In particular, we look at the number of unit roots or poles, and a congruence relation on the units. This raises a…

We prove a strong form of the trivial zero conjecture at the central point for the $p$-adic $L$-function of a non-critically refined self-dual cohomological cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_2$ over a totally real field,…

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of…

This article studies the finite--slope analogue of Loeffler's conjectural framework for Rankin--Selberg $p$-adic $L$-functions in universal deformation families. Starting from residual representations $\bar\rho_1,\bar\rho_2$ of tame…

We generalize Soergel's tilting algorithm to singular weights and deduce from this the validity of the Lascoux-Leclerc-Thibon conjecture on the connection between the canonical basis of the basic submodule of the Fock module and the…

We develop $L$-functions ratios conjecture with one shift in the numerator and denominator in certain ranges for the family of cubic Hecke $L$-functions of prime moduli over the Eisenstein field using multiple Dirichlet series under the…

For each positive integer k, we investigate the L-function attached to the k-th symmetric power of the F-crystal associated to the family of cubic exponential sums of x^3 + \lambda x. We explore its rationality, field of definition, degree,…

We develop a framework to investigate conjectures on congruences between the algebraic part of special values of $L$-functions of congruent motives. We show that algebraic local Euler factors satisfy precise interpolation properties in…

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 a largely expository note which applies standard techniques of the theory of Duijstermaat-Heckman measures for compact Lie groups and results of P. Littelmann to prove a generalization of a conjecture of Coquereaux and Zuber.

The L-function of symmetric powers of classical Kloosterman sums is a polynomial whose degree is now known, as well as the complex absolute values of the roots. In this paper, we provide estimates for the p-adic absolute values of these…

Wan proved the rationality of partial toric $L$-functions using $\ell$-adic techniques. In this paper, we present a $p$-adic proof in the spirit of Dwork. We demonstrate that partial $L$-functions can be expressed as an alternating product…

We construct p-adic relative cohomology for a family of toric exponential sums which generalize the classical Kloosterman sums. Under natural hypotheses such as quasi-homogeneity and nondegeneracy, this cohomology is acyclic except in the…
