On smooth elements in arithmetic semigroups

Abstract

In this paper we explore the concept of smoothness in arithmetic semigroups. In particular, we give explicit asymptotics for the counting function $Ψ_G(x,y)$ when the arithmetic semigroup $G$ satisfies Axiom A (in the spirit of Knopfmacher). The asymptotics generalise the standard results in the literature for the integer case, and are expressed in terms of the Dickman $ρ$ function. Finally, we give applications of our results to counting smooth families of finite abelian groups and finite semisimple rings.

Co-rank $1$ Arithmetic Siegel--Weil III: Geometric local-to-global

This is the third in a sequence of four papers, where we prove the arithmetic Siegel--Weil formula in co-rank $1$ for Kudla--Rapoport special cycles on exotic smooth integral models of unitary Shimura varieties of arbitrarily large even arithmetic dimension. Our arithmetic Siegel--Weil formula implies that degrees of Kudla--Rapoport arithmetic special $1$-cycles are encoded in the first derivatives of unitary Eisenstein series Fourier coefficients. In this paper, we make the reduction from global arithmetic intersection numbers for special cycles to the local geometric quantities in our companion papers. Building on our previous companion papers, we also propose a construction for arithmetic special cycle classes associated to possibly singular matrices of arbitrary co-rank.

Co-rank $1$ Arithmetic Siegel--Weil IV: Analytic local-to-global

This is the fourth in a sequence of four papers, where we prove the arithmetic Siegel--Weil formula in co-rank $1$ for Kudla--Rapoport special cycles on exotic smooth integral models of unitary Shimura varieties of arbitrarily large even arithmetic dimension. Our arithmetic Siegel--Weil formula implies that degrees of Kudla--Rapoport arithmetic special $1$-cycles are encoded in the first derivatives of unitary Eisenstein series Fourier coefficients. In this paper, we pin down precise normalizations for some $U(m,m)$ Siegel Eisenstein series, give local Siegel--Weil special value formulas with explicit constants, and record a geometric Siegel--Weil result for degrees of complex $0$-cycles. Using this, we complete the proof of our arithmetic Siegel--Weil results by patching together the local main theorems from our companion papers.

Sub-Weyl bound for $GL(2)$ via trivial delta

For a $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ form $f$, we obtain the sub-Weyl bound \begin{equation*} L(1/2+it,f)\ll_{f,\varepsilon} t^{1/3-δ+\varepsilon}, \end{equation*} where $δ=1/174$, thereby crossing the Weyl barrier for the first time beyond $GL(1)$. The proof uses a refinement of the `trivial' delta method.
