Abstract

Let $K$ be a field. In this article, we derive a formula for the discriminant of a sequence $\{r_{A,n}+c r_{A,n-1}\}$ of polynomials. Here, $c \in K$ and $\{r_{A,n} \}$ is a sequence of polynomials satisfying a certain recurrence relation that is considered by Ulas or Turaj. There are several works calculating the discriminants of given polynomials. For example, Kaneko--Niiho and Mahlburg--Ono independently proved the formula for the discriminants of certain hypergeometric polynomials that are related to $j$-invariants of supersingular elliptic curves. Sawa--Uchida proved the formula for the discriminants of quasi-Jacobi polynomials. In this article, we present a uniform way to prove a vast generalization of the above formulas. In the proof, we use the formulas for the resultants Res$(r_{A,n},r_{A,n-1})$ by Ulas and Turaj that are generalizations of Schur's classical formula for the resultants.

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.
