Abstract

Levin asked what can be said about the locus of points lying on a given curve in $\mathbb{G}_m^n$ that have a non-zero integer multiple on another given curve in $\mathbb{G}_m^n$ for $n \geq 3$. We give a definite answer to the abelian analogue of Levin's question, proving what is predicted by the Zilber--Pink conjecture in this case. An important ingredient in our proof is a strengthening of a height inequality by Vojta and Rémond.

The integer group determinants for GA(1,p) and related semidirect products

We consider the integer group determinants for groups that are semidirect products of $\mathbb Z_p$ and $\mathbb Z_n$ with $p$ prime and $n\mid p-1$. We give a complete description of the integer group determinants for the general affine groups of degree one GA(1,$p$) when $p=5,7,11$ and $23$, and for $\mathbb Z_7\rtimes \mathbb Z_3,$ $\mathbb Z_{11}\rtimes \mathbb Z_5$ and $\mathbb Z_{13}\rtimes \mathbb Z_6,$ showing that the obvious divisibility and congruence conditions arising from the form of the group determinant when $n=p-1$ or $\frac{1}{2}(p-1)$, can be sufficient as well as necessary for these types of groups (although in the latter case we must work with norms of integers in a quadratic field). For $p=13$ this also happens for the remaining groups of this type, $\mathbb Z_{13}\rtimes_5 \mathbb Z_4$ and $\mathbb Z_{13}\rtimes \mathbb Z_3$, (working in an appropriate cubic and quartic field).

A Shiu Theorem for Larger and Smoother Functions

In this paper, we broaden Shiu's Brun-Titchmarsh theorem to allow for functions that are larger and/or smooth-supported. In particular, let $f$ be a nonnegative multiplicative function. We prove that if there exists a $β<1$ such that $f(p^l)\ll (\log\log x)^{lβ}$ for every prime $p$ and every $l>1$, and if $f(n)\ll \max\{n^ε,(\log x)^ε\}$ for every $ε>0$, then $$\sum_{\substack{x\leq n\leq x+y \\ n\equiv a\pmod k}}f(n)\ll \frac{y}{ϕ(k)(\log x)^{1-ε_0}}\exp\left(\sum_{\substack{p\leq x \\ p\nmid k}}\frac{f(p)}{p}\right)$$ for every $ε_0>0$, where $x$, $y$, and $k$ are as they were in Shiu's original paper and $(a,k)=1$. Moreover, we prove that if $f$ is a $Q$-smooth-supported function then there exists a constant $C$ for which $$\sum_{\substack{x\leq n\leq x+y \\ n\equiv a\pmod k}}f(n)\ll \frac{y}{ϕ(k)(\log x)^{1-ε_0}}\exp\left(\sum_{\substack{p\leq x \\ p\nmid k}}\frac{f(p)}{p}\right)ρ(u)^C,$$ where $u=\frac{\log x}{\log Q}$, $ρ$ is the Dickman-de Bruijn function, and $C$ depends on whether we choose the bound of $f(p^l)\leq A_1^l$ or $f(p^l)\ll (\log\log x)^{lβ}$. We also give applications to both the divisor function to large powers and to smooth numbers in short intervals.

Regularized spectral expansion of a Rankin--Selberg period and moments

We establish a regularized spectral decomposition of the squared magnitude of a maximal degenerate Eisenstein series as a Schwartz distribution on $\mathrm{GL}_n$. Although the original problem is on $\mathrm{GL}_n$, its spectral components are described entirely by the automorphic spectrum of $\mathrm{GL}_2$. As an application, we prove a partial reciprocity formula relating the second moment of $\mathrm{GL}_n\times\mathrm{GL}_n$ Rankin--Selberg central $L$-values and a mixed moment of $L$-values of $\mathrm{GL}_2$. We also prove, assuming the generalized Ramanujan conjecture, an asymptotic formula for the second moment of the above Rankin--Selberg $L$-functions over a conductor-aspect family with an error term of square-root-cancellation strength.
