Quasiperiodic patterns of the complex dimensions of nonlattice self-similar strings, via the LLL algorithm

Abstract

The Lattice String Approximation algorithm (or LSA algorithm) of M. L. Lapidus and M. van Frankenhuijsen is a procedure that approximates the complex dimensions of a nonlattice self-similar fractal string by the complex dimensions of a lattice self-similar fractal string. The implication of this procedure is that the set of complex dimensions of a nonlattice string has a quasiperiodic pattern. Using the LSA algorithm, together with the multiprecision polynomial solver MPSolve which is due to D. A. Bini, G. Fiorentino and L. Robol, we give a new and significantly more powerful presentation of the quasiperiodic patterns of the sets of complex dimensions of nonlattice self-similar fractal strings. The implementation of this algorithm requires a practical method for generating simultaneous Diophantine approximations, which in some cases we can accomplish by the continued fraction process. Otherwise, as was suggested by Lapidus and van Frankenhuijsen, we use the LLL algorithm of A. K. Lenstra, H. W. Lenstra, and L. Lovász.

On the factorisation of the $p$-adic Rankin-Selberg $L$-function in the supersingular case

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of $F$. We prove that this new $p$-adic $L$-function interpolates values of complex imprimitive symmetric square $L$-functions, for the various specialisations of the family $F$. We use this $p$-adic $L$-function to prove a $p$-adic factorisation formula, expressing the geometric $p$-adic $L$-function attached to the Rankin--Selberg convolution of $f$ with itself as a the product of the $p$-adic symmetric square $L$-function of $f$ and a Kubota-Leopoldt $L$-function. This extends a result of Dasgupta in the ordinary case.

Exceptional poles of archimedean Rankin-Selberg L-functions for irreducible generic representations of GL(n,R)

For irreducible generic representations $π_1$ and $π_2$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb R)$, we prove that the notions of exceptional pole of type $1$ and type $2$ coincide at every level. When both representations are in general position, we use this identification to express the Rankin--Selberg $L$-function $L(s,π_1\timesπ_2)$ in terms of the exceptional $L$-factors attached to the irreducible constituents of their derivatives.
