Let $K$ be an extension field of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, let $O$ be the ring of integers of $K$, and let $P$ be the maximal ideal of $O$. If $K$ is a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, there is the well-...

I am reading about $p$-adic $L$-functions and I have one question in mind. To start with, I will write a proof I've learned of a congruence of $L$-values: Theorem: Let $p\geq5$ be a prime, $\alpha\...

In page 16 of these notes on $p$-adic $L$-functions, it makes the following claim: Let $\alpha$ be a $p$-adic measure on $\mathbf{Z}_p$ which corresponds to a power series $F_{\alpha}(T) \in \mathbf{...

The Gamma transform of a measure is defined as follows. If $\alpha$ is a $\mathbf{Z}_p$-valued measure on $\mathbf{Z}_p$, then the Gamma transform of $\alpha$ is: $$\Gamma_{\alpha}(s) = \int_{\mathbf{...

Let $\Gamma_p : \mathbb{Z}_p \to \mathbb{Z}_p^{\times}$ be the $p$-adic gamma function. I thought that I had successfully calculated $\Gamma_p(1 - 1/4)$, but sage is telling me I'm wrong (this is ...

Let $A \in M_n(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ be a nonsingular matrix which is nilpotent mod $p$, so $A^r \in pM_n(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ for some $r$. Then $\mathbb{Z}_p[[T]]$ acts on $\mathbb{Z}_p^n$ with $T$ acting by $A$....
