Is there a rigid analytic geometry proof of the functional equation for the Riemann zeta function?

The adèles $\mathbb A$ arise naturally when considering the Berkovich space $\mathcal M(\mathbb Z)$ of the integers. Namely, they are the stalk $\mathbb A = (j_\ast j^{-1} \mathcal O_\mathbb Z)_p$ ...

Infinite extensions such that every elliptic curve has finite rank

The comments to this answer seem to make the following claim. Claim. Let $K$ be the maximal abelian extension of $\mathbf Q$ that is unramified away from $p$ (more generally, away from a finite set $S$...

Projections of closed geodesics under the modular function

In the answers to this question it was shown that for closed geodesics on $\mathbb{H}^2/\Gamma(2)$, the projection under the modular function $\lambda$ is an immersed topological component of a real ...

Deeper meaning behind the occurrence of the factor $\frac{\log q}{i}$ in Deninger's results

In two papers Deninger proved the following: If $q=p^{n}$ and $p$ is a finite prime of $\mathbb{Z}$, $B=\mathbb{C}[\mathbb{C}]$ is generated by symbols of the form $e^{\alpha}$, $\alpha\in\mathbb{C}$,...

On the elementary proof of Dirichlet theorem on arithmetic progressions

In [Cassels, JWS, Rational quadratic forms, p. 333], the autor says: "In fact the elementary proof of Dirichlet's theorem [Selberg (1949)] makes essential use of the existence of genera". In ...

Proving that a certain function (related to a volume of a region) has a bounded derivative

Let $F$ be a homogeneous form in $n$ variables with integer coefficients. Let $D$ be a closed box in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (product of closed and bounded intervals). Assume that the partial $\partial F/\...

Rational solutions to Catalan's equation

Famous Catalan's conjecture, now a theorem proved by Mihăilescu, states that the only solution in the natural numbers of the equation $$ x^{a}-y^{b}=1. $$ for $a, b > 1$ and $x, y > 0$ is $x = 3,...

An exponential sum like the Kloosterman sums

I encounter a tricky sum like the Kloosterman sum $${\sum_{x \mod P}}^\ast e\left(\frac{ax+\overline{x}}{P}+\frac{lx^2}{P^2}\right),$$ where $l$ is a positive integer co-prime with $P$ and here $P$ ...

Odds of projections of a point not on the hyperplane

Let $\mathcal{L}=\{\Bbb x\in\Bbb R^n:x_1+x_2+\dots+x_n=0\}$ be a specific hyperplane. Let a projection of $c\in\Bbb R^n$ be $p(c)=[p_1,p_2,\dots,p_n]$ where $p_i\neq c_i\implies p_i=0$. Let $\...

Does Lemma 5.4 in Deligne's Ramanujan paper generalize to Shimura varieties of PEL type?

It is generally not known if a smooth variety over a perfect field embeds into a smooth proper variety. Lemma 5.4 in Formes modulaires et représentations $\ell$-adiques provides such an embedding for ...
