A Frostman type lemma for sets with large intersections, and an application to Diophantine approximation

Abstract

We consider classes $\mathscr{G}^s ([0,1])$ of subsets of $[0,1]$, originally introduced by Falconer, that are closed under countable intersections, and such that every set in the class has Hausdorff dimension at least $s$. We provide a Frostman type lemma to determine if a limsup-set is in such a class. Suppose $E = \limsup E_n \subset [0,1]$, and that $μ_n$ are probability measures with support in $E_n$. If there is a constant $C$ such that \[\iint|x-y|^{-s}\, \mathrm{d}μ_n(x)\mathrm{d}μ_n(y) 1$ and almost all $λ\in (\frac{1}{2},1)$ the set \[ E_λ(α) = \{\,x\in[0,1] : |x - s_n| < 2^{-αn} \text{infinitely often}\ \}\] where $s_n \in \{\,(1-λ)\sum_{k=0}^na_kλ^k$ and $a_k\in\{0,1\}\,\}$, belongs to the class $\mathscr{G}^s$ for $s \leq \frac{1}α$. This improves one of our previous results.

On the factorisation of the $p$-adic Rankin-Selberg $L$-function in the supersingular case

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of $F$. We prove that this new $p$-adic $L$-function interpolates values of complex imprimitive symmetric square $L$-functions, for the various specialisations of the family $F$. We use this $p$-adic $L$-function to prove a $p$-adic factorisation formula, expressing the geometric $p$-adic $L$-function attached to the Rankin--Selberg convolution of $f$ with itself as a the product of the $p$-adic symmetric square $L$-function of $f$ and a Kubota-Leopoldt $L$-function. This extends a result of Dasgupta in the ordinary case.

Exceptional poles of archimedean Rankin-Selberg L-functions for irreducible generic representations of GL(n,R)

For irreducible generic representations $π_1$ and $π_2$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb R)$, we prove that the notions of exceptional pole of type $1$ and type $2$ coincide at every level. When both representations are in general position, we use this identification to express the Rankin--Selberg $L$-function $L(s,π_1\timesπ_2)$ in terms of the exceptional $L$-factors attached to the irreducible constituents of their derivatives.
