Summability of Elliptic Functions via Residues

Abstract

Summability has been a central object of study in difference algebra over the past half-century. It serves as a cornerstone of algebraic methods to study linear recurrences over various fields of coefficients and with respect to various kinds of difference operators. Recently, Dreyfus, Hardouin, Roques, and Singer introduced a notion of elliptic orbital residues, which altogether serve as a partial obstruction to summability for elliptic functions with respect to the shift by a non-torsion point over an elliptic curve. We explain how to refine this into a complete obstruction, which promises to be useful in applications of difference equations over elliptic curves, such as elliptic hypergeometric functions and the combinatorics of walks in the quarter plane.

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.
