Let 
$E_{/{\mathbb{Q}}}$ be a semistable elliptic curve, and p ≠ 2 a prime of bad multiplicative reduction. For each Lie extension 
$\mathbb{Q}$FT/$\mathbb{Q}$ with Galois group G∞ ≅ 
$\mathbb{Z}$p ⋊ $\mathbb{Z}$p×, we construct p-adic L-functions interpolating Artin twists of the Hasse–Weil L-series of the curve E. Through the use of congruences, we next prove a formula for the analytic λ-invariant over the false Tate tower, analogous to Chern–Yang Lee's results on its algebraic counterpart. If one assumes the Pontryagin dual of the Selmer group belongs to the 
$\mathfrak{M}_{\mathcal{H}}$(G∞)-category, the leading terms of its associated Akashi series can then be computed, allowing us to formulate a non-commutative Iwasawa Main Conjecture in the multiplicative setting.
We investigate from a multifractal analysis point of view the increasing rate of the sums of partial quotients 
$S_{n}(x)=\sum_{j=1}^n a_{j}(x)$, where x = [a1(x), a2(x), . . .] is the continued fraction expansion of an irrational x ∈ (0, 1). Precisely, for an increasing function ϕ : 
$\mathbb{N}$ → $\mathbb{N}$, one is interested in the Hausdorff dimension of the set
Several cases are solved by Iommi and Jordan, Wu and Xu, and Xu. We attack the remaining subexponential case exp(nγ), γ ∈ [1/2, 1). We show that when γ ∈ [1/2, 1), Eϕ has Hausdorff dimension 1/2. Thus, surprisingly, the dimension has a jump from 1 to 1/2 at ϕ(n) = exp(n1/2). In a similar way, the distribution of the largest partial quotient is also studied.
E_\varphi = \left\{x\in (0,1): \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac {S_n(x)} {\varphi(n)} =1\right\}.
Let 0 < a ⩽ 1, s, z ∈ 
${\mathbb{C}}$ and 0 < |z| ⩽ 1. Then the Hurwitz–Lerch zeta function is defined by Φ(s, a, z) ≔ ∑∞n = 0zn(n + a)− s when σ ≔ ℜ(s) > 1. In this paper, we show that the Hurwitz zeta function ζ(σ, a) ≔ Φ(σ, a, 1) does not vanish for all 0 < σ < 1 if and only if a ⩾ 1/2. Moreover, we prove that Φ(σ, a, z) ≠ 0 for all 0 < σ < 1 and 0 < a ⩽ 1 when z ≠ 1. Real zeros of Hurwitz–Lerch type of Euler–Zagier double zeta functions are studied as well.
$\mathbb{N}$) for 1 < p < ∞
A recent result of Leung (Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2015) states that the Banach algebra ℬ(X) of bounded, linear operators on the Banach space X = (⊕n∈
$\mathbb{N}$ ℓ∞n)ℓ1 contains a unique maximal ideal. We show that the same conclusion holds true for the Banach spaces X = (⊕n∈$\mathbb{N}$ ℓ∞n)ℓp and X = (⊕n∈$\mathbb{N}$ ℓ1n)ℓp whenever p ∈ (1, ∞).
The aim of this paper is to study geometric properties of non-degenerate smooth projective varieties of small degree from a birational point of view. First, using the positivity property of double point divisors and the adjunction mappings, we classify smooth projective varieties in 
$\mathbb{P}$r of degree d ⩽ r + 2, and consequently, we show that such varieties are simply connected and rationally connected except in a few cases. This is a generalisation of P. Ionescu's work. We also show the finite generation of Cox rings of smooth projective varieties in $\mathbb{P}$r of degree d ⩽ r with counterexamples for d = r + 1, r + 2. On the other hand, we prove that a non-uniruled smooth projective variety in $\mathbb{P}$r of dimension n and degree d ⩽ n(r − n) + 2 is Calabi–Yau, and give an example that shows this bound is also sharp.
Let A be a local complete intersection ring. Let M, N be two finitely generated A-modules and I an ideal of A. We prove that
is a finite set. Moreover, we prove that there exist i0, n0 ⩾ 0 such that for all i ⩾ i0 and n ⩾ n0, we have
$$\bigcup_{i\geqslant 0}\bigcup_{n \geqslant 0}{\rm Ass}_A\left({\rm Ext}_A^i(M,N/I^n N)\right)$$
We also prove the analogous results for complete intersection rings which arise in algebraic geometry. Further, we prove that the complexity cxA(M, N/InN) is constant for all sufficiently large n.
$$\begin{linenomath}\begin{subeqnarray*}
{\rm Ass}_A\left({\rm Ext}_A^{2i}(M,N/I^nN)\right) &=& {\rm Ass}_A\left({\rm Ext}_A^{2 i_0}(M,N/I^{n_0}N)\right), \\
{\rm Ass}_A\left({\rm Ext}_A^{2i+1}(M,N/I^nN)\right) &=& {\rm Ass}_A\left({\rm Ext}_A^{2 i_0 + 1}(M,N/I^{n_0}N)\right).
\end{subeqnarray*}\end{linenomath}$$
The study of existence of a universal C*-completion of the *-algebra canonically associated to a Hecke pair was initiated by Hall, who proved that the Hecke algebra associated to (SL2(
$\mathbb{Q}$p), SL2(
$\mathbb{Z}$p)) does not admit a universal C*-completion. Kaliszewski, Landstad and Quigg studied the problem by placing it in the framework of Fell–Rieffel equivalence, and highlighted the role of other C*-completions. In the case of the pair (SLn($\mathbb{Q}$p), SLn($\mathbb{Z}$p)) for n ⩾ 3 we show, invoking property (T) of SLn($\mathbb{Q}$p), that the C*-completion of the L1-Banach algebra and the corner of C*(SLn($\mathbb{Q}$p)) determined by the subgroup are distinct. In fact, we prove a more general result valid for a simple algebraic group of rank at least 2 over a 
$\mathfrak{p}$-adic field with a good choice of a maximal compact open subgroup.
Let K be a field and let R be a regular domain containing K. Let G be a finite subgroup of the group of automorphisms of R. We assume that |G| is invertible in K. Let RG be the ring of invariants of G. Let I be an ideal in RG. Fix i ⩾ 0. If RG is Gorenstein then:
(i) injdimRGHiI(RG) ⩽ dim Supp HiI(RG);
(ii) 
$H^j_{\mathfrak{m}}$(HiI(RG)) is injective, where 
$\mathfrak{m}$ is any maximal ideal of RG;
(iii) μj(P, HiI(RG)) = μj(P′, HiIR(R)) where P′ is any prime in R lying above P.
For any integer e and hyperbolic curve X over 
$\overline{\mathbb Q}$, Mochizuki showed that there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of hyperbolic curves Y of Euler characteristic e with the same universal cover as X. We use Arakelov theory to prove an effective version of this finiteness statement.
In this paper we obtain new upper bound estimates for the number of solutions of the congruence
for certain ranges of H and |
$$\begin{equation}
x\equiv y r\pmod p;\quad x,y\in \mathbb{N},\quad x,y\le H,\quad r\in \mathcal{U},
\end{equation}$$
${\mathcal U}$|, where ${\mathcal U}$ is a subset of the field of residue classes modulo p having small multiplicative doubling. We then use these estimates to show that the number of solutions of the congruence
is at most 
$$\begin{equation}
x^n\equiv \lambda\pmod p; \quad x\in \mathbb{N}, \quad L<x<L+p/n,
\end{equation}$$
$p^{\frac{1}{3}-c}$ uniformly over positive integers n, λ and L, for some absolute constant c > 0. This implies, in particular, that if f(x) ∈ 
$\mathbb{Z}$[x] is a fixed polynomial without multiple roots in 
$\mathbb{C}$, then the congruence xf(x) ≡ 1 (mod p), x ∈ 
$\mathbb{N}$, x ⩽ p, has at most $p^{\frac{1}{3}-c}$ solutions as p → ∞, improving some recent results of Kurlberg, Luca and Shparlinski and of Balog, Broughan and Shparlinski. We use our results to show that almost all the residue classes modulo p can be represented in the form xgy (mod p) with positive integers x < p5/8+ϵ and y < p3/8. Here g denotes a primitive root modulo p. We also prove that almost all the residue classes modulo p can be represented in the form xyzgt (mod p) with positive integers x, y, z, t < p1/4+ϵ.
We study the low-lying zeros of L-functions attached to quadratic twists of a given elliptic curve E defined over 
$\mathbb{Q}$. We are primarily interested in the family of all twists coprime to the conductor of E and compute a very precise expression for the corresponding 1-level density. In particular, for test functions whose Fourier transforms have sufficiently restricted support, we are able to compute the 1-level density up to an error term that is significantly sharper than the square-root error term predicted by the L-functions Ratios Conjecture.
