A reciprocity map and the two variable p-adic L-function

Abstract

For primes p greater than 3, we propose a conjecture that relates the values of cup products in the Galois cohomology of the maximal unramified outside p extension of a cyclotomic field on cyclotomic p-units to the values of p-adic L-functions of cuspidal eigenforms that satisfy mod p congruences with Eisenstein series. Passing up the cyclotomic and Hida towers, we construct an isomorphism of certain spaces that allows us to compare the value of a reciprocity map on a particular norm compatible system of p-units to what is essentially the two-variable p-adic L-function of Mazur and Kitagawa.

Transfer operator for the Gauss' continued fraction map. I. Structure of the eigenvalues and trace formulas

Let L be the transfer operator associated with the Gauss' continued fraction map, known also as the Gauss-Kuzmin-Wirsing operator, acting on the Banach space. In this work we prove a two-term asymptotic formula for the eigenvalues of L, show their algebraic simplicity, sign alternation pattern, and decrease in absolute value. This settles, in a stronger form, the conjectures of D. Mayer and G. Roepstorff (1988), A.J. MacLeod (1992), Ph. Flajolet and B. Vallee (1995), also supported by several other authors. Further, we find an exact series for the eigenvalues, which also gives the canonical decomposition of trace formulas due to D. Mayer (1976) and K.I. Babenko (1978). This crystallizes the contribution of each individual eigenvalue in the trace formulas.

On a parity result for the symmetric square of modular forms with congruent residual representations

The parity of Selmer ranks for elliptic curves defined over the rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$ with good ordinary reduction at an odd prime $p$ has been studied by Shekhar. The proof of Shekhar relies on proving a parity result for the $λ$-invariants of Selmer groups over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $\mathbb{Q}_\infty$ of $\mathbb{Q}$. This has been further generalized for elliptic curves with supersingular reduction at $p$ by Hatley and for modular forms by Hatley--Lei. In this paper, we prove a parity result for the $λ$-invariants of Selmer groups over $\mathbb{Q}_\infty$ for the symmetric square representations associated to two modular forms with congruent residual Galois representations. We treat both the ordinary and the non-ordinary cases.

Symmetry of hypergeometric functions over finite fields and geometric interpretation

We begin by defining general hypergeometric functions over finite fields and obtaining a finite field analogue of a classical symmetry in their complex counterparts. We give a geometric proof for the symmetry by constructing isomorphisms between certain algebraic varieties. The numbers of rational points on these varieties are hypergeometric functions over finite fields.
