Density one for lattice point visibility along polynomials with at least two distinct roots

Abstract

We prove that every nonzero integer polynomial with at least two distinct complex roots has lattice point visibility density one, resolving the generalized form of the Visibility Density Conjecture for nonzero polynomials. This extends the origin-passing case established by Chaubey, Pandey, and Regavim. Visibility is taken along the curves $y=tF(x)$ with rational $t$, with a point visible if no positive lattice point on the same curve has a smaller horizontal coordinate. The proof uses a greatest common divisor cutoff to reduce the problem to finitely many equations of the form $F(b)=qF(a)$, with $0<q<1$; for each equation, the positive integers $a$ admitting a positive integer solution $b<a$ form a set of density zero. This elementary argument removes the proper-power hypothesis of earlier work without requiring estimates uniform in the ratio.

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.
