We introduce motivic zeta functions for matroids. These zeta functions are defined as sums over the lattice points of Bergman fans, and in the realizable case, they coincide with the motivic Igusa zeta functions of hyperplane arrangements.…
We prove that for a compact locally symmetric Riemannian space $M$ of rank 1 there exist infinitely many automorphic Tate motives $f$ such that the generalized Selberg zeta function $Z_{M(f)}(s)$ satisfies a simple functional equation in…
We introduce the concept of a conical zeta value as a geometric generalization of a multiple zeta value in the context of convex cones. The quasi-shuffle and shuffle relations of multiple zeta values are generalized to open cone subdivision…
Let $r\ge 1$ be an integer. For any multiple index $\mathbf{s}=(s_1,s_2,\cdots,s_r) \in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}^r$ with $s_r>1$, the multiple zeta value (MZV for short) is defined by \begin{align*} \zeta(s_1,s_2,\cdots,s_r):=\sum_{1\leq…
This text has two goals. The first is to give an introduction to Ecalle's work on mould theory, multiple zeta values and double shuffle theory and relate this work explicitly to the classical theory of multiple zeta values and double…
Gangl, Kaneko, and Zagier gave explicit linear relations among double zeta values of odd indices coming from the period polynomials of modular forms for ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$. In this paper, we generalize their result to the linear…
This article surveys some recent work of the author on Hilbert modular fourfolds X. After some preliminaries on the cohomology and special, codimension 2 cycles Z on X of Hirzebruch-Zagier type, a proof of the Tate conjecture for X over…
The focus of this paper is the study of the moduli space of representations of fundamental groupoids of surfaces $\Sigma$ with boundaries with values in $G:=GL_n(\mathbb C)$. In absence of marked points on the boundary, this moduli space is…
We define Tate-Betti and Tate-Bass invariants for modules over a commutative noetherian local ring R. Then we show the periodicity of these invariants provided that R is a hypersurface. In case R is also Gorenstein, we show that a finitely…
In this paper, we study the evaluation formulas of the interpolated multiple zeta values and the interpolated multiple $t$-values with indices involving $1,2,3$. To get these evaluations, we derive the corresponding algebraic relations in…
We associate with an infinite cyclic cover of a punctured neighborhood of a simple normal crossing divisor on a complex quasi-projective manifold (assuming certain finiteness conditions are satisfied) a rational function in $K_0({\rm…
We construct abelian categories of integral Nori motivic sheaves over a scheme of characteristic zero. The first step is to study the presentable derived category of Nori motives over a field. Next we construct an algebra in \'etale motives…
We study moduli spaces of twisted maps to a smooth pair in arbitrary genus, and give geometric explanations for previously known comparisons between orbifold and logarithmic Gromov--Witten invariants. Namely, we study the space of twisted…
We study the moduli space of stable sheaves of Euler characteristic 1 supported on curves of arithmetic genus 3 contained in a smooth quadric surface. We show that this moduli space is rational. We compute its Betti numbers by studying the…
The multiple zeta values (MZV) are a set of real numbers with a beautiful structure as an algebra over the rational numbers. They are related to maybe the most important conjecture on mathematics today, the Riemann hypothesis. In this paper…
This paper draws connections between the double shuffle equations and structure of associators; universal mixed elliptic motives as defined by Hain and Matsumoto; and the Rankin-Selberg method for modular forms for $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$. We…
This note is devoted to the definition of moduli spaces of rational tropical curves with n marked points. We show that this space has a structure of a smooth tropical variety of dimension n-3. We define the Deligne-Mumford compactification…
We consider categories of equivariant mixed Tate motives, where equivariant is understood in the sense of Borel. We give the two usual definitions of equivariant motives, via the simplicial Borel construction and via algebraic…
This thesis is concerned with the mixed Tate property of reductive algebraic groups $G$, which in particular guarantees a Chow Kunneth property for the classifying space $BG$. Toward this goal, we first refine the construction of the…
We develop a multigraded variant of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity. Motivated by toric geometry, we work with modules over a polynomial ring graded by a finitely generated abelian group. As in the standard graded case, our definition of…
