We compute the Artin $L$-function of a diagonal hypersurface D_{\lambda} over a finite field associated to a character of a finite group acting on D_{\lambda} , and under some condition, express it in terms of hypergeometric functions and…

In this paper, we completely determine the slopes and weights of the L-functions of an important class of exponential sums arising from analytic number theory. Our main tools include Adolphson-Sperber's work on toric exponential sums and…

Initially motivated by the relations between Anabelian Geometry and Artin's L-functions of the associated Galois-representations, here we study the list of zeta-functions of genus two abelian coverings of elliptic curves over finite fields.…

We give a congruence for L-functions coming from affine additive exponential sums over a finite field. Precisely, we give a congruence for certain operators coming from Dwork's theory. This congruence is very similar to the congruence of…

In this paper, we investigate the derivatives of L-functions, in particular, the Riemann zeta function, the Hasse-Weil L-function, the Rankin L-function and the Artin L-function, and survey the relations between the derivatives of…

The L-function of a non-degenerate twisted Witt extension is proved to be a polynomial. Its Newton polygon is proved to lie above the Hodge polygon of that extension. And the Newton polygons of the Gauss-Heilbronn sums are explicitly…

In this paper we construct a Dwork theory for general exponential sums over affinoids in Witt towers. Using this, we compute the degree of the $L$-function, its Hodge polygon and examine when the Hodge and Newton polygons coincide.

In this paper, we focus on a family of generalized Kloosterman sums over the torus. With a few changes to Haessig and Sperber's construction, we derive some relative $p$-adic cohomologies corresponding to the $L$-functions. We present…

This is a research announcement concerning a series of constructions obtained by applying the "doubling method" from the theory of automorphic forms to covering groups. Using these constructions, we obtain partial tensor product L-functions…

In this paper, we compute the $q$-adic slopes of the L-functions of an important class of exponential sums arising from analytic number theory. Our main tools include Adolphson-Sperber's work on toric exponential sums and Wan's…

The study of the global mapping properties of arbitrary Dirichlet L-functions is undertaken. The results are applied to the proof of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis.

In this paper we prove an extension of a result of Gromov, Henkin and Shubin [GHS] on holomorphic L_{2} functions on coverings of strongly pseudoconvex manifolds.

We are studing Galois actions on fundamental groups. Using towers of coverings we construct measures on the products of finite copies of Z_p. Using these measures we can calculate coefficients of Galois representations. In the simplest case…

We establish the universality theorem for the first four symmetric power L-functions of automorphic forms and their associated Rankin-Selberg L-functions. This generalizes some results of Laurincikas & Matsumoto and Matsumoto respectively.

In this article, we study the density conjecture of Katz and Sarnak for $L$-functions of ad\'elic Hilbert modular forms and their convolutions. In particular, under the generalised Riemann hypothesis, we establish several instances…

This is an expository paper which gives a simple arithmetic introduction to the conjectures of Weil and Dwork concerning zeta functions of algebraic varieties over finite fields. A number of further open questions are raised.

The author reviews results and conjectures of Selberg on a class of Dirichlet series functions which share properties with the Riemann zeta function, and he relates this work to the theory of Artin L-functions.

The paper starts out from pseudomeasures (in the sense of Serre) which hold the arithmetic properties of the abelian $l$-adic Artin $L$-functions over totally real number fields. In order to generalize to non-abelian $l$-adic $L$-functions,…

We prove an analogue of Deligne's period conjecture for the special value of the L-function of an abelian variety over a global function field twisted by an Artin representation. We illustrate this in action for an example of an elliptic…

We prove Siegel-Walfisz type theorems (over long and short intervals) for the Fourier coefficients of certain automorphic $L$-functions and Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions over number fields.
