For a non-degenerate irreducible curve $C$ of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^3$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$, we prove that the number $N_q(C)$ of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points of $C$ satisfies the inequality $N_q(C) \leq (d-2)q+1$. Our result improves…

In this paper we construct a noncommutative space of ``pointed Drinfeld modules'' that generalizes to the case of function fields the noncommutative spaces of commensurability classes of Q-lattices. It extends the usual moduli spaces of…

We introduce a Bredon motivic cohomology theory for smooth schemes defined over a field and equipped with an action by a finite group. These cohomology groups are defined for finite dimensional representations as the hypercohomology of…

This article gives an overview of recent results on the relation between quantum field theory and motives, with an emphasis on two different approaches: a "bottom-up" approach based on the algebraic geometry of varieties associated to…

In this note, we prove multiplicity one theorems for generalized modular functions (GMF), in terms of their q-exponents, and make a general statement about the nature of values that the prime q-exponents of a GMF can take. We shall also…

These are notes of a talk, given at the 'arithmetique en plat pays'-meeting in february 2020, on the potential uses of geometries over the fake field $\mathbb{F}_1$ to zeta functions and counting measures on motives.

Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$. In this paper, without assuming resolution of singularities, we prove that the triangulated category of motives with modulus with rational coefficients is equivalent to Voevodsky's…

We improve an estimate of A.Granville (1987) on the number of vanishing Fermat quotients $q_p(\ell)$ modulo a prime $p$ when $\ell$ runs through primes $\ell \le N$. We use this bound to obtain an unconditional improvement of the…

We formulate for function fields an analog of Serre's conjecture on the modularity of 2-dimensional irreducible mod l representations of the absolute Galois group of Q: our analog is not restricted to 2-dimensional represntations. While the…

The study of arithmetic properties of coefficients of modular forms $f(\tau) = \sum a(n)q^n$ has a rich history, including deep results regarding congruences in arithmetic progressions. Recently, work of C.-S. Radu, S. Ahlgren, B. Kim, N.…

We establish an aysmptotic formula for the number of points with coordinates in $\mb{F}_q[t]$ on a complete intersection of degree $d$ defined over $\mb{F}_q[t]$, with explicit error term, provided that the characteristic of $\mb{F}_q$ is…

Let C be a smooth projective algebraic curve of genus g over the finite field F_q. A classical result of H. Martens states that the Brill-Noether locus of line bundles L in Pic^d C with deg L = d and h^0(L) >= i is of dimension at most…

We study real univariate polynomials with non-zero coefficients and with all roots real, out of which exactly two positive. The sequence of coefficients of such a polynomial begins with $m$ positive coefficients followed by $n$ negative…

We provide a method for counting number fields of fixed Galois group ordered by arbitrary inertial invariants using analytic techniques from the study of multiple Dirichlet series. We prove unconditional results for infinitely many new…

This paper introduces a new cohomology theory for schemes of finite type over an arithmetic ring. The main motivation for this Arakelov-theoretic version of motivic cohomology is the conjecture on special values of $L$-functions and zeta…

Multiple polylogarithms are equipped with rich algebraic structures including the motivic coaction and the single-valued map which both found fruitful applications in high-energy physics. In recent work arXiv:2312.00697, the current authors…

We combine aspects of the theory of motives in algebraic geometry with noncommutative geometry and the classification of factors to obtain a cohomological interpretation of the spectral realization of zeros of $L$-functions. The analogue in…

Lehner's 1949 results on the $j$-invariant showed high divisibility of the function's coefficients by the primes $p\in\{2,3,5,7\}$. Expanding his results, we examine a canonical basis for the space of level $p$ modular functions holomorphic…

We prove two general factorization theorems for fixed-point invariants of fibrations: one for the Lefschetz number and one for the Reidemeister trace. These theorems imply the familiar multiplicativity results for the Lefschetz and Nielsen…

For any affine hypersurface defined by a complete symmetric polynomial in $k\geq 3$ variables of degree $m$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ of $q$ elements, a special case of our theorem says that this hypersurface has at least…
