For a complex polynomial or analytic function f, one has been studying intensively its so-called local zeta functions or complex powers; these are integrals of |f|^{2s}w considered as functions in s, where the w are differential forms with…

We develop a unified method to study spectral determinants for several different manifolds, including spheres and hemispheres, and projective spaces. This is a direct consequence of an approach based on deriving recursion relations for the…

In a recent paper, Hauenstein, Sturmfels, and the second author discovered a conjectural bijection between critical points of the likelihood function on the complex variety of matrices of rank r and critical points on the complex variety of…

We introduce certain quiver analogue of the determinantal variety. We study the Kempf-Lascoux-Weyman's complex associated to a line bundle on the variety. In the case of generalized Kronecker quivers, we give a sufficient condition on when…

We introduce Schur multiple zeta functions which interpolate both the multiple zeta and multiple zeta-star functions of the Euler-Zagier type combinatorially. We first study their basic properties including a region of absolute convergence…

We provide a short proof of the theorem that every real multivariate polynomial has a symmetric determinantal representation, which was first proved in J. W. Helton, S. A. McCullough, and V. Vinnikov, Noncommutative convexity arises from…

We study in detail the one-variable local theory of functions holomorphic over a finite-dimensional commutative associative unital $\mathbb{C}$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$, showing that it shares a multitude of features with the classical…

A conjecture of Kato says that the monodromy operator on the cohomology of a semi-stable degeneration of projective varieties is represented by an algebraic cycle on the special fiber of a normal crossing model of the fiber product…

Using Margulis's results on lattices in semisimple Lie groups, we prove the Grothendieck-Katz $p$-Curvature Conjecture for certain locally symmetric varieties, including the moduli space of abelian varieties ${\cal A}_g$ when $g > 1.$

We provided explicit formulas for the number of stringy points over finite fields of parabolic type A character varieties with generic semisimple monodromy. This leads to formulas for their stringy E-polynomials. In particular, they satisfy…

I describe the monodromy of smooth hypersurfaces $X$ of high degree in a fixed smooth variety $Y$ containing a fixed subvariety $W$ of $Y$. The cohomology of $X$ in middle degree spanned by the pull-back of the cohomology of $Y$ and by the…

Conjecturally, almost all graphs are determined by their spectra. This problem has also been studied for variants such as the spectra of the Laplacian and signless Laplacian. Here we consider the problem of determining graphs with Ihara and…

Clozel, Harris, and Taylor proposed a conjectural generalized Ihara's lemma for definite unitary groups. In this paper, we prove their conjecture with banal coefficients under some conditions. As an application, we prove a level-raising…

In 1982 Macdonald published his now famous constant term conjectures for classical root systems. This paper begins with the almost trivial observation that Macdonald's constant term identities admit an extra set of free parameters, thereby…

This paper proves the general rank one case of Dwork's conjecture over the affine space. It generalizes and improves the method of ANT-0141 "Dwork's conjecture on unit root zeta functions" (Ann. Math., 150(1999), 867-929). In addition,…

In this article, we study the multiple zeta functions (MZF) and some of its variants at identical arguments. Using the harmonic product, these functions can be expressed as polynomials in the Riemann zeta function. Firstly, we note that an…

We compute the stringy E-functions of determinantal varieties and establish that the stringy E-function of a determinantal variety coincides with the E-function of the product of a Grassmannian and an affine space. Furthermore, a similar…

We prove a Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for the determinantal loci of a morphism between two holomorphic vector bundles $E$ and $F$ over a complex manifold under the condition that $E^*\ox F$ is Griffiths $k$-positive. We apply this result…

We prove finite jet determination for (finitely) smooth CR diffeomorphisms of (finitely) smooth Levi degenerate hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$ by constructing generalized stationary discs glued to such hypersurfaces.

We prove a monodromy theorem for local vector fields belonging to a sheaf satisfying the unique continuation property. In particular, in the case of admissible regular sheaves of local fields defined on a simply connected manifold, we…
