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 prove for abelian varieties a global form of Denef and Loeser's motivic monodromy conjecture, in arbitrary characteristic. More precisely, we prove that for every tamely ramified abelian variety $A$ over a complete discretely valued…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote the class of analytic functions in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ of the form $f(z)= z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_n z^n$ and $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of functions $f\in\mathcal{A}$ which are univalent ({\it i.e.},…

Following D. Ramakrishnan, we explain how L. Lafforgue's modularity theorem and an analytic theorem of H. Jacquet and J. Shalika can be applied to prove the following result related to the Tate Conjecture: for a smooth, projective,…

We prove that a conjecture of Fujita on the semi-ampleness is true in the case of rank one direct summand, though it is wrong in higher rank case by Catanese and Dettweiler.

We show that positively $1$--homogeneous rank one convex functions are convex at $0$ and at matrices of rank one. The result is a special case of an abstract convexity result that we establish for positively $1$--homogeneous directionally…

In this note, we prove the existence of infinitely many zeros of certain generalized Hurwitz zeta functions in the domain of absolute convergence. This is a generalization of a classical problem of Davenport, Heilbronn and Cassels about the…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of analytic and univalent ({\it i.e.}, one-to-one) functions $f(z)= z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_n z^n$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in \mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$. For $f\in \mathcal{S}$, Ma proposed the…

In this article, we consider the family of functions $f$ meromorphic in the unit disk $\ID=\{z :\,|z| < 1\}$ with a pole at the point $z=p$, a Taylor expansion \[f(z)= z+\sum_{k=2}^{\infty} a_kz^k, \quad |z|<p, \] and satisfying the…

We initiate a study of path spaces in the nascent context of "motivic dga's", under development in doctoral work by Gabriella Guzman. This enables us to reconstruct the unipotent fundamental group of a pointed scheme from the associated…

For $f_1,...,f_r\in \mathbb C[z_1,...,z_n]\setminus \mathbb C$, we introduce the variation of archimedean zeta function. As an application, we show that the $n/d$-conjecture, proposed by Budur, Musta\c{t}\u{a}, and Teitler, holds for…

The Jacobian conjecture in dimension $n$ asserts that any polynomial endomorphism of $n$-dimensional affine space over a field of zero characteristic, with the Jacobian equal 1, is invertible. The Dixmier conjecture in rank $n$ asserts that…

Let p be a prime number. We give a conjecture of a sheaf-theoretic nature which is equivalent to the strong form of the Tate conjecture for smooth, projective varieties X over F_p: for all n>0, the order of pole of the Hasse-Weil zeta…

We show that the recent conjecture of the first-named author for the special value at $s=1$ of the zeta function of an arithmetic surface is equivalent to the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for the Jacobian of the generic fibre.

In the following work, we first propose two (partial summation) formulas involving the floor and ceiling functions. We use principle of mathematical induction to prove the propositions. Another formula relating to the difference of floor…

In the large rank limit, for any nonexceptional affine algebra, the graded branching multiplicities known as one-dimensional sums, are conjectured to have a simple relationship with those of type A, which are known as generalized Kostka…

In this paper we study a new conjecture concerning Kato's Euler system of zeta elements for elliptic curves $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. This conjecture, which we refer to as the `Generalized Perrin-Riou Conjecture', predicts a precise congruence…

Recently, much attention has been given to various inequalities among partition functions. For example, Nicolas, {and later DeSavlvo--Pak,} proved that $p(n)$ is eventually log-concave, and Ji--Zang showed that the cranks are eventually…

The Monodromy Conjecture asserts that if c is a pole of the local topological zeta function of a hypersurface, then exp(2\pi i c) is an eigenvalue of the monodromy on the cohomology of the Milnor fiber. A stronger version of the conjecture…

We describe an explicit `higher rank' Iwasawa theory for zeta elements associated to the multiplicative group over abelian extensions of general number fields. We then show that this theory leads to a concrete new strategy for proving…
