Let $s\colon X\rightarrow \operatorname{Spec} \mathbb{F}$ be a separated scheme of finite type over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic $p$, let $\Lambda$ be a not necessarily commutative $\mathbb{Z}_p$-algebra with finitely many…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, $\mathcal{V}$ a complete discrete valuation ring with residue field $k$ and field of fractions $K$ of characteristic 0, and $S$ a separated $k$-scheme of finite type. When $S$ is smooth…
Let $X$ be a variety over a finite field. Given an order $R$ in a semi-simple algebra over the rationals and a constructible \'etale sheaf $F$ of $R$-modules over $X$, one can consider a natural non-commutative $L$-function associated with…
This article is the first one of a series of three articles devoted to L-functions. In this one we give a definition of the L-functions of convergent or overconvergent F-modules with the help of Teichm\"uller liftings and we establish the…
For a prime number p and a number field k, we first study certain etale cohomology groups with coefficients associated to a p-adic Artin representation of its Galois group, where we twist the coefficients using a modified Tate twist with a…
In this short note, we will show the following weak evidence of S. Lang conjecture over function fields. Let f : X ---> Y be a projective and surjective morphism of algebraic varieties over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic…
This paper proposes a conjecture on special values of L-functions of geometric motives over Z. This includes L-functions of mixed motives over Q and Hasse-Weil zeta-functions of schemes over Z. We conjecture the following: the order of L(M,…
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 give a quantitative version of a result due to N. Katz about L-functions of elliptic curves over function fields over finite fields. Roughly speaking, Katz's Theorem states that, on average over a suitably chosen algebraic family, the…
To any compact $K\subset\hat{\mathbb{C}}$ we associate a map $\lambda_K: \hat{\mathbb{C}}\rightarrow\mathbb{N}\cup\{\infty\}$ -- the lambda function of $K$ -- such that a planar continuum $K$ is locally connected if and only if…
Let $L$ be a solvable Lie algebra of dimension less than or equal to 4 over finite fields. We compute and record, in explicit symbolic form, the zeta functions enumerating subalgebras or ideals of $L$, and study their properties. We also…
Let ${\mathcal A}$ be the class of functions analytic in the unit disk ${\mathbb D} := \{ z\in {\mathbb C}:\, |z| < 1 \}$ and normalized such that $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots$. In this paper we study the class $\mathcal{U}(\lambda)$,…
In this paper we generalize work of Amice and Lazard from the early (nineteen) sixties. Amice determined the dual of the space of locally Qp-analytic functions on Zp and showed that it is isomorphic to the ring of rigid functions on the…
The analytic properties of the standard twist $F(s,\alpha)$, where $F(s)$ belongs to a wide class of $L$-functions, are of prime importance in describing the structure of the Selberg class. In this paper we present a deeper study of such…
We propose a conjecture on special values of $ L $-functions in a function field context with positive characteristic coefficients. For $ M $ a uniformizable $ t $-motive with everywhere good reduction we conjecture a relation between the…
We argue that it makes sense to talk about ``typical'' properties of lattices, and then show that there is, up to isomorphism, a unique countable lattice L* (the Fraisse limit of the class of finite lattices) that has all ``typical''…
Let f_{\lambda} be a family of holomorphic functions in the unit disk, holomorphic in parameter \lambda\in U\subset\C^{n}. We estimate the number of zeros of f_{\lambda} in a smaller disk via some characteristic of the ideal generated by…
Let f be a modular eigenform of even weight k>0 and new at a prime p dividing exactly the level, with respect to an indefinite quaternion algebra. The theory of Fontaine-Mazur allows to attach to f a monodromy module D_FM(f) and an…
Lichtenbaum has conjectured the existence of a Grothendieck topology for an arithmetic scheme $X$ such that the Euler characteristic of the cohomology groups of the constant sheaf $\mathbb{Z}$ with compact support at infinity gives, up to…
We study the connection between the Liv\v{s}ic class of functions $s(z)$ that are the characteristic functions of densely defined symmetric operators $\dot A$ with deficiency indices $(1, 1)$, the characteristic functions $S(z)$ (the…
