In this article, we investigate the $p$-adic valuation $\nu_p$ of quantities such as the factorial $n!$, the hyperfactorial $H(n)$ or the superfactorial $\mathrm{sf}(n)$. In particular, we obtain simple bounds (both upper and lower) for…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and $P(x,y)\in k[x,y]$ be a polynomial which depends on all its variables. $P$ has an algebraic constraint if the set $\{(P(a,b),(P(a',b'),P(a',b),P(a,b')\,|\,a,a',b,b'\in k\}$…

Motivated by Emmanuel Kowalski's exponential sums over definable sets in finite fields, we generalize Ax's theorem on pseudo-finite fields to a continuous-logic setting allowing for an additive character. The role played by Weil's Riemann…

We study an analogue of the Herbrand-Ribet theorem, and its refinement by Mazur and Wiles, in graph theory. For an odd prime number $p$, we let $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ and $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ denote the finite field with $p$ elements and the ring of…

The ring of Witt vectors over a perfect valuation ring of characteristic p, often denoted A_inf, plays a pivotal role in p-adic Hodge theory; for instance, Bhatt, Morrow, and Scholze have recently reinterpreted and refined the crystalline…

Denote by $\mathfrak{o}$ the valuation ring of a non-Archimedean local field with prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ and finite residue field, and let $r\geq 1$ be an integer. We prove that for every smooth affine group scheme $G$ over…

Bhargava introduced a generalization of the factorial function to extend classical results in integers to Dedekind rings and unify them. We study the Bhargava factorial of the images of polynomial maps from an analytic perspective. We first…

Let M be an imaginary quadratic field, f a Hecke eigenform on GL2(Q) and \pi the unitary base-change to M of the automorphic representation associated to f. Take a unitary arithmetic Hecke character \chi of M inducing the inverse of the…

These are notes of a talk based on the work arXiv:1212.3630 joint with A. Aizenbud. Let V be a finite-dimensional vector space over a local field F of characteristic 0. Let f be a function on V of the form $f(x)= \psi (P(x))$, where P is a…

Let $K$ be a number field defined by a monic irreducible polynomial $F(X) \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$, $p$ a fixed rational prime, and $\nu_p$ the discrete valuation associated to $p$. Assume that $\overline{F}(X)$ factors modulo $p$ into the…

Let $p$ be a prime, $m$ be a positive integer ( $m \geq 1$, and $m \geq 2$ if $p=2$), and $\chi_n$ be a multiplicative complex character on $\mathbb F^*_{p^m}$ with order $n| (p^m-1)$. We show that a partition $\mathcal A_1 \cup \mathcal…

Let F be a finite extension of Q_p. We show that every Schwartz function on F, with values in an algebraic closure of Q_p, is the uniform limit of a sequence of Schwartz functions, whose Fourier transforms tend uniformly to 0. The proof…

A Frobenius difference field is an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, enriched with a symbol for $x \mapsto x^{p^m}$. We study a sentence or formula in the language of fields with a distinguished automorphism, interpreted…

The well-known theorem of Ax and Katz gives a p-divisibility bound for the number of rational points on an algebraic variety V over a finite field of characteristic p in terms of the degree and number of variables of defining polynomials of…

Building on work of J. Robinson and A. Shlapentokh, we develop a general framework to obtain definability and decidability results of large classes of infinite algebraic extensions of $\mathbb{F}_p(t)$. As an application, we show that for…

Let $R$ be a finite non-commutative ring with $1\ne 0$. By a polynomial function on $R$, we mean a function $F\colon R\longrightarrow R$ induced by a polynomial $f=\sum\limits_{i=0}^{n}a_ix^i\in R[x]$ via right substitution of the variable…

We develop a theory of $p$-adic continued fractions for a quaternion algebra $B$ over $\mathbb Q$ ramified at a rational prime $p$. Many properties holding in the commutative case can be proven also in this setting. In particular, we focus…

We characterize Hilbert spaces in the class of all Banach spaces using Fourier transform of vector-valued functions over the field $Q_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. Precisely, Banach space $X$ is isomorphic to a Hilbert one if and only if Fourier…

The following result, a consequence of Dumas criterion for irreducibility of polynomials over integers, is generally proved using the notion of Newton diagram: Let $f(x)$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients and $k$ be a positive…
