Abstract

Green and Tao famously proved in a 2008 paper that there are arithmetic progressions of prime numbers of arbitrary lengths. Soon after, analogous statements were proved by Tao for the ring of Gaussian integers and by Lê for the polynomial rings over finite fields. In 2020 this was extented to orders of arbitrary number fields by Kai-Mimura-Munemasa-Seki-Yoshino. We settle the case of the coordinate rings of affine curves over finite fields. The main contribution of this paper is subtle choice of a polynomial subring of the given ring which plays the role of $\mathbb Z$ in the number field case. This choice and the proof of its pleasant properties eventually depend on the Riemann-Roch formula.

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.
