Is the weight-monodromy conjecture known for unramified representations?
Let $X$ be a smooth proper variety over a number field $K$, $v$ a place of $K$ lying over a prime number $p \neq \ell$, and $V := H^n(X_{\overline{K}};\mathbb{Q}_{\ell})$. Suppose $V$ is unramified at ...

Could the Weil zeroes of curves be evenly distributed?
If $X$ is a smooth, geometrically connected, projective curve of genus $g$
over $\mathbb{F}_q$, then the zeta function of $X$ is of the form $P(s)/(1 - s)(1 - qs)$, where $P(s)$ is a polynomial of ...

Why geometric generic point (in abstract algebraic geometry) replace general points in the unit disk?
In section 4.1, chapter 4 of Pierre Deligne's paper La conjecture de Weil : I (french version, translation to English) he states:
On $\mathbb{C}$ Lefshietz local results are as follows. Let $X$ be a ...

Which $p$-adic valuations of Weil numbers (that is, eigenvalues of Frobenius) are possible?
Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$, $q$ is a power of the characteristic $p$. It is well-known that if $\alpha$ is an eigenvalue of Frobenius acting on $H^1_{et}(C,\...

What is the automorphic interpretation of the Weil conjectures over finite fields
I am very much a beginner in the theory of automorphic forms and I might (will?) make mistakes in what follows. Please correct me.
A loose interpretation of the Langland's philosophy is that to any ...

Is there any generalization of Weil conjecture for non-smooth variety?
Is there any generalization of Weil conjecture for any non-smooth geometric-connected variety? For example, for more general curve, or at least some numerical evindence (example)?

Relatively concise English expositions of the proofs of the various Weil conjectures
Where can I find relatively concise (i.e. not excessively wordy and waxing poetic about history and intuitions and such, doesn't spend an eternity carefully developing various parts of the theory of ...

When is "independence of l" known?
My question is for which varieties over local fields is "independence of l" known for
etale cohomology. Say $X/{\mathbb Q}_p$ is a complete non-singular variety and $W_l$ is the (complex) Weil-...

Hi,
Is there a simple proof of the weight monodromy conjecture in the case of a curve over a mixed characteristic local field?
Thanks!

On the Hasse-Weil L-function of $P^n$
So let us start with the "simplest" scheme over $Spec(\mathbf{Z})$ namely $X_0=Spec(\mathbf{Z})$. Then the (reciprocal) Weil zeta function of $X_0$ at a prime $p$ is given by $Z_p(T)=1-T$ (a ...

Direct proof of special case of Hasse's theorem for elliptic curves
Consider the elliptic curve $y^2 = x^3 + x$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$, where $p \equiv 1 \pmod 4$.
If memory serves correctly, the number of points (excluding the point at infinity) is $p - a$ where $a$ is ...
