Abstract

We give a new, purely topological construction of Eisenstein cohomology classes for Hilbert-Blumenthal varieties using the polylogarithm for families of topological tori and a decomposition with respect to the units in the center of $GL_2$. These classes are explicitly calculated in de Rham chomology and compared with Harder's Eisenstein classes. For non-trivial coefficient systems the whole Eisenstein cohomology in positive degrees is generated by these topological Eisenstein classes. This gives an alternative proof for the rationality of Harder's Eisenstein operator without using any multiplicity one arguments. The text constitutes my 2016 Regensburg PhD thesis.

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.
