Infinitely many supersingular primes for some Mumford's abelian fourfolds

Abstract

Elkies proved the infinitude of supersingular primes for elliptic curves over real number fields. We generalize Elkies' result to some abelian fourfolds in Mumford's families, and more generally, to certain families of Kuga-Satake abelian varieties. The proof relies on the study of local deformation spaces at closed points of the integral model of a Hodge-type Shimura variety, based on the work of Madapusi, and on the analysis of real points of a Shimura curve, based on the work of Shimura.

Asymptotic density of k-almost primes

Landau's well known asymptotic formula $$N_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : Ω(n)=k\}\mid \ \sim \left( \frac{x}{\log x} \right) \frac{(\log\log x)^{k-1}}{(k - 1)!}\ \ (x \rightarrow \infty),$$ which also holds for $$π_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : ω(n)=k\}\mid,$$ is known to be fairly poor for $k > 1$, and when $k$ is allowed to tend to infinity with $x$, the study of $N_k(x)$ and $π_k(x)$ becomes very technical [1, Chapter II.6, $§$ 6.1, p.200]. I hope to show that the method described below provides not only a more accurate approach, but rather increases in its asymptotic accuracy as $k$ tends to infinity.

Real quadratic base changes for $\mathrm{GL}_3$ and integral periods relations

We prove a $p$-adic divisibility between the automorphic periods of a cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_3(\mathbb{Q})$ and the periods of its Arthur-Clozel's base change to some real quadratic field $E$. This generalizes earlier works of Tilouine-Urban and of Hida in the case of classical modular forms. The divisibility we prove involves a new kind of automorphic periods, defined using the middle degree of the cuspidal cohomology of $\mathrm{GL}_3(E)$, instead of the top or bottom degrees. We also investigate the Rogawski's stable base change from the quasi-split unitary group $U_E$ associated with $E$ to $\mathrm{GL}_3(E)$. In this situation, we also obtain some results toward a $p$-adic divisibility of automorphic periods.
