Abstract

For elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$ in short Weierstrass form \[ E=E(a_4,a_6): y^2=x^3+a_4x+a_6, \] we derive a multivariable Euler product generating function which encodes the Tamagawa product $Tam(E)=\prod_p c_p(E)$. Using this generating function, we compute limiting distributions, exact covariances, and moment and tail bounds for four important statistics on the Tamagawa number; for example we show that more than half of all curves in this height ordering have trivial Tamagawa product, about $42.2\%$ have exactly one prime with nontrivial local Tamagawa number, and only about $6.8\%$ have exactly two such primes. The product is obtained by specializing an Euler product indexed by local reduction data that we derive from Tate's algorithm. The results in this paper were autoformalized in Lean by AxiomProver.

Compatibility of the Fargues-Scholze and Gan-Takeda Local Langlands

Given a prime $p$, a finite extension $L/\mathbb{Q}_{p}$, a connected $p$-adic reductive group $G/L$, and a smooth irreducible representation $π$ of $G(L)$, Fargues-Scholze recently attached a semisimple Weil parameter to such $π$, giving a general candidate for the local Langlands correspondence. It is natural to ask whether this construction is compatible with known instances of the correspondence after semisimplification. For $G = \mathrm{GL}_{n}$ and its inner forms, Fargues-Scholze and Hansen-Kaletha-Weinstein showed that the correspondence is compatible with the correspondence of Harris-Taylor/Henniart. We verify a similar compatibility for $G = \mathrm{GSp}_{4}$ and its unique non-split inner form $G = \mathrm{GU}_{2}(D)$, where $D$ is the quaternion division algebra over $L$, assuming that $L/\mathbb{Q}_{p}$ is unramified and $p > 2$. In this case, the local Langlands correspondence has been constructed by Gan-Takeda and Gan-Tantono. Analogous to the case of $\mathrm{GL}_{n}$ and its inner forms, this compatibility is proven by describing the Weil group action on the cohomology of a local Shimura variety associated to $\mathrm{GSp}_{4}$, using basic uniformization of abelian type Shimura varieties due to Shen, combined with various global results of Kret-Shin and Sorensen on Galois representations in the cohomology of global Shimura varieties associated to inner forms of $\mathrm{GSp}_{4}$ over a totally real field. After showing the parameters are the same, we apply some ideas from the geometry of the Fargues-Scholze construction explored recently by Hansen, to give a more precise description of the cohomology of this local Shimura variety, verifying a strong form of the Kottwitz conjecture in the process.

Zelevinsky Duality on Basic Local Shimura Varieties

We give a simple proof of a general result describing the action of the Zelevinsky involution on the cohomology of certain basic local Shimura varieties, using the machinery of Fargues-Scholze. As an application, we generalize earlier results of Fargues and Mieda on the action of the Zelevinsky involution on the cohomology of $GL_{n}$ and $GSp_{4}$ type basic local Shimura varieties, respectively.
