On the $8$-rank of narrow class groups of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-4pq})$, $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-8pq})$, and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{8pq})$

Abstract

Let $d \in \{-4, -8, 8\}$. We study the $8$-part of the narrow class group in the thin families of quadratic number fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{dpq})$, where $p\equiv q \equiv 1\bmod 4$ are prime numbers, and we prove new lower bounds for the proportion of narrow class groups in these families that have an element of order $8$. In the course of our proof, we prove a general double-oscillation estimate for the quadratic residue symbol in quadratic number fields.

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.
