Let E be an elliptic curve over Q with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field K. In 1991, by studying a certain special value of the Katz two-variable p-adic L-function lying outside the range of…
The operator function (A,B)\to\tr f(A,B)(K^*)K, defined on pairs of bounded self-adjoint operators in the domain of a function f of two real variables, is convex for every Hilbert Schmidt operator K, if and only if f is operator convex. As…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0. Let W(k) be the ring of Witt vectors with coefficients in k. We prove a motivic conjecture of Milne that relates, in the case of abelian schemes, the \'etale cohomology with…
In this article, we establish an additive decomposition of the discrete zeta function (for $s \in \mathbb{N}^*$, $s > 1$), more precisely of the function $4(\zeta(s)-1)$, as a series whose general term is of the form $1/x_n(s) + 1/y_n(s) +…
In this paper we give an ordinal analysis of the theory of second order arithmetic. We do this by working with proof trees -- that is, "deductions" which may not be well-founded. Working in a suitable theory, we are able to represent…
For a field K, rational function phi in K(z) of degree at least two, and alpha in P^1(K), we study the polynomials in K[z] whose roots are given by the solutions to phi^n(z) = alpha, where phi^n denotes the nth iterate of phi. When the…
We study a natural birational invariant for varieties over finite fields and show that its vanishing on projective space is equivalent to the Tate conjecture, the Beilinson conjecture, and the Grothendieck--Serre semi-simplicity conjecture…
We consider partial zeta functions $\zeta(s,c)$ associated with ray classes $c$'s of a totally real field. Stark's conjecture implies that an appropriate product of $\exp(\zeta'(0,c))$'s is an algebraic number which is called a Stark unit.…
We describe a refinement of the general theory of higher rank Euler, Kolyvagin and Stark systems in the setting of the multiplicative group over arbitrary number fields. We use the refined theory to prove new results concerning the Galois…
The first two papers in this series prove the Harris-Venkatesh conjecture and its refinement with the Stark conjecture for imaginary dihedral modular forms of weight $1$. This paper explicitly describes the constants appearing in the…
The topological significance of the spectral Atiyah-Patodi-Singer eta-invariant is investigated under the parity conditions of P. Gilkey. We show that twice the fractional part of the invariant is computed by the linking pairing in K-theory…
We define a new family of symmetric functions which are affine analogues of Stanley symmetric functions. We establish basic properties of these functions including symmetry, dominance and conjugation. We conjecture certain positivity…
Martin's Conjecture states that every definable function on the Turing degrees is either constant or increasing, and that every increasing function is an iterate of the Turing jump. This classification has already been corroborated for the…
Taking $t$ at random, uniformly from $[0,T]$, we consider the $k$th moment, with respect to $t$, of the random variable corresponding to the $2\beta$th moment of $\zeta(1/2+ix)$ over the interval $x\in(t, t+1]$, where $\zeta(s)$ is the…
We show that the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors on smooth proper varieties over finitely generated fields of positive characteristic follows from the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors on smooth projective surfaces over…
Let $E/K$ be a finite Galois extension of totally real number fields with Galois group $G$. Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $r>1$ be an odd integer. The $p$-adic Beilinson conjecture relates the values at $s=r$ of $p$-adic Artin…
In the second part of this work was developed a technique of balayage of finite genus $q=0,1,2,\dots$ for measures (charges) and ($\delta$-) subharmonic functions of finite order to an arbitrary closed system of rays $S$ with vertex at…
Let $K$ be a quadratic field, and let $\zeta_K$ its Dedekind zeta function. In this paper we introduce a factorization of $\zeta_K$ into two functions, $L_1$ and $L_2$, defined as partial Euler products of $\zeta_K$, which lead to a…
We fix data $(K/F, E)$ consisting of a Galois extension $K/F$ of characteristic $p$ global fields with arbitrary abelian Galois group $G$ and a Drinfeld module $E$ defined over a certain Dedekind subring of $F$. For this data, we define a…
This is an expanded version. We study relations among special values of zeta functions, invariants of toric varieties, and generalized Dedekind sums. In particular, we use invariants arising in the Todd class of a toric variety to give a…
