On lower bounded orbits of the times-q map

Abstract

In this paper we consider the times-q map on the unit interval as a subshift of finite type by identifying each number with its base q expansion, and we study certain non-dense orbits of this system where no element of the orbit is smaller than some fixed parameter c. The Hausdorff dimension of these orbits can be calculated using the spectral radius of the transition matrix of the corresponding subshift, and using simple methods based on Euclidean division in the integers, we completely characterize the characteristic polynomials of these matrices as well as give the value of the spectral radius for certain values of c. It is known through work of Urbanski and Nilsson that the Hausdorff dimension of the orbits men- tioned above as a map of c is continuous and constant almost everywhere, and as a new result we give some asymptotic results on how this map behaves as q goes to infinity,

On the Pair Correlation of Zeros of $L$-Functions for Non-CM Newforms in Shifted Ranges

We study the pair correlation between zeros of a shifted auxiliary $ L $-function attached to a non-CM newform, the scale of which is a fixed constant. We prove an unconditional asymptotic result for the pair correlation and introduce a simplicity hypothesis for the zeros of this function, which if true means that multiple zeros of the original $ L $-function cannot be separated by the same fixed distance. Our results provide macroscopic information in contrast to the pair correlation of the original $ L $-function which is of microscopic nature.

Prime Solutions to a Binary Additive Equation and Mixed Moments of Character Sums

We obtain an asymptotic formula with a power-saving error term for counting the integer points $(a,b,c,d)$ in an expanding box that satisfy the determinant equation $x_1x_2-x_3x_4 =r$ for $r \neq 0 $ with two of entries to be prime. Finally, these estimates are applied to evaluate mixed fourth moments of Dirichlet character sums over integers and primes, yielding non-trivial bounds. The method involves the Poisson summation formula and the estimation for the average of the sums of the Kloosterman fractions over primes.

On properness of moduli stacks of $D^{\times}$-shtukas over ramified legs

Given a maximal order $\mathcal{D}$ of a central division algebra $D$ over a global function field $F$, we prove an explicit sufficient condition for moduli stacks of $\mathcal{D}^\times$-shtukas to be proper over a finite field (modulo a suitable central action) in terms of the \emph{local invariants} of $D$ and \emph{bounds}. Our proof is a refinement of E.~Lau's result (Duke Math. J. \textbf{140} (2007)), which showed the properness of the \emph{leg morphism} (or \emph{characteristic morphism}) away from the ramification locus of $D$. %, by carefully measuring the contribution of ``ramified legs''. We also establish non-emptiness of Newton and Kottwitz--Rapoport strata for moduli stacks of $\mathcal{B}^\times$-shtukas, where $\mathcal{B}$ is a maximal order of a central simple algebra over $F$.
