On rational quadratic cocycles

Let $(V,q)$ be a non-degenerate $n$-dimensional quadratic space over the rationals of real signature $(r,s)$. For every integer $1\leq k \leq \min\{r,n-2\}$ we construct classes in the cohomology of arithmetic subgroups of $\mathrm{O}(V)$ with values in the group of codimension $k$ cycles on the quadric of isotropic lines in $V$. Generating series of images of these classes in an equivariant version of the $k$-th Chow group are shown to be Siegel modular forms of genus $k$ in the extremal cases $k=1$ and $k=r$. Soit $(V,q)$ un espace quadratique non d\'eg\'en\'er\'e de dimension $n$ sur les rationnels, de signature r\'eelle $(r,s)$. Pour tout entier $1 \leq k \leq \min\{r,n-2\}$, nous construisons des classes dans la cohomologie des sous-groupes arithm\'etiques de $\mathrm{O}(V)$ \`a valeurs dans le groupe des cycles de codimension $k$ sur la quadrique des droites isotropes dans $V$. Les s\'eries g\'en\'eratrices des images de ces classes dans une version \'equivariante du $k$-i\`eme groupe de Chow sont des formes modulaires de Siegel de genre $k$ dans les cas extr\'emaux $k=1$ et $k=r$.

Evaluation of Bianchi Rigid Meromorphic Cocycles at Big ATR Points

We develop the tools required to effectively evaluate the Bianchi rigid meromorphic cocycles introduced by Darmon-Gehrmann-Lipnowski at big ATR points, and use them to obtain the first numerical verification of the conjectured algebraicity of these special values. Moreover, our computations suggest that these special values exhibit behaviour analogous to that of the special values of Borcherds products on Hilbert modular surfaces at big CM points.

The Gross--Kohnen--Zagier theorem via $p$-adic uniformization

This article gives a new proof of the Gross--Kohnen--Zagier theorem for Shimura curves which exploits the $p$-adic uniformization of Cerednik--Drinfeld. The explicit description of CM points via this uniformization leads to an expression relating the Gross--Kohnen--Zagier generating series to the ordinary projection of the first derivative, with respect to a weight variable, of a $p$-adic family of positive definite ternary theta series.

Non-Archimedean plectic Jacobians

Plectic Stark-Heegner points were recently introduced to explore the arithmetic of higher rank elliptic curves: the concept was inspired by Nekov\'a\v{r} and Scholl's plectic philosophy, while the construction is based on Bertolini and Darmon's groundbreaking use of the $p$-adic uniformization of Shimura curves to study the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. In this note we give a geometric interpretation of plectic Heegner points using the non-Archimedean uniformization of higher-dimensional quaternionic Shimura varieties. To this end, we define and study a plectic Jacobian functor from a category of Mumford varieties to topological groups extending the classical Jacobian functor on Mumford curves.

Iwasawa theory and mock plectic points

We use Iwasawa theory, at a prime $p$ inert in a quadratic imaginary field $K$, to study the arithmetic properties of mock plectic invariants for elliptic curves of rank two. More precisely, under some minor technical assumptions, we prove that the non-vanishing of the mock plectic invariant $\mathcal{Q}_K$ attached to an elliptic curve $E_{/\mathbb{Q}}$ of even analytic rank $r_\mathrm{an}(E/K)\ge2$, and with multiplicative reduction at $p$, implies that the $p$-Selmer rank $r_p(E/K)$ equals $2$. The proof rests on one inclusion of Perrin-Riou's Heegner point main conjecture for elliptic curves with multiplicative reduction at $p$ which we obtain using bipartite Euler systems.

Rigid meromorphic cocycles for orthogonal groups

Rigid meromorphic cocycles are defined in the setting of orthogonal groups of arbitrary real signature and constructed in some instances via a $p$-adic analogue of Borcherds' singular theta lift. The values of rigid meromorphic cocycles at special points of an associated $p$-adic symmetric space are then conjectured to belong to class fields of suitable global reflex fields, suggesting an eventual framework for explicit class field theory beyond the setting of CM fields explored in the treatise of Shimura and Taniyama.

On the algebraicity of polyquadratic plectic points

We establish direct evidence of the arithmetic significance of plectic Stark-Heegner points for elliptic curves of arbitrarily large rank. The main contribution is a proof of the algebraicity of plectic points associated to polyquadratic CM extensions of totally real number fields. Moreover, we relate the non-vanishing of plectic points to analytic and algebraic ranks of elliptic curves.

Big principal series, p-adic families and L-invariants

In earlier work, the first named author generalized the construction of Darmon-style $\mathcal{L}$-invariants to cuspidal automorphic representations of semisimple groups of higher rank, which are cohomological with respect to the trivial coefficient system and Steinberg at a fixed prime. In this paper, assuming that the Archimedean component of the group has discrete series we show that these automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants can be computed in terms of derivatives of Hecke-eigenvalues in $p$-adic families. Our proof is novel even in the case of modular forms, which was established by Bertolini, Darmon, and Iovita. The main new technical ingredient is the Koszul resolution of locally analytic principal series representations by Kohlhaase and Schraen. As an application of our results we settle a conjecture of Spieß: we show that automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants of Hilbert modular forms of parallel weight $2$ are independent of the sign character used to define them. Moreover, we show that they are invariant under Jacquet-Langlands transfer and, in fact, equal to the Fontaine-Mazur $\mathcal{L}$-invariant of the associated Galois representation. Under mild assumptions, we also prove the equality of automorphic and Fontaine-Mazur $\mathcal{L}$-invariants for representations of definite unitary groups of arbitrary rank. Finally, we study the case of Bianchi modular forms to show how our methods, given precise results on eigenvarieties, can also work in the absence of discrete series representations.

Invertible analytic functions on Drinfeld symmetric spaces and universal extensions of Steinberg representations

Recently, Gekeler proved that the group of invertible analytic functions modulo constant functions on Drinfeld's upper half space is isomorphic to the dual of an integral generalized Steinberg representation. In this note we show that the group of invertible functions is the dual of a universal extension of that Steinberg representation. As an application, we show that lifting obstructions of rigid analytic theta cocycles of Hilbert modular forms in the sense of Darmon--Vonk can be computed in terms of $\mathcal{L}$-invariants of the associated Galois representation. The same argument applies to theta cocycles for definite unitary groups.

L-invariants for cohomological representations of PGL(2) over arbitrary number fields

Let $π$ be a cuspidal, cohomological automorphic representation of an inner form $G$ of $\mathrm{PGL}_2$ over a number field $F$ of arbitrary signature. Further, let $\mathfrak{p}$ be a prime of $F$ such that $G$ is split at $\mathfrak{p}$ and the local component $π_\mathfrak{p}$ of $π$ at $\mathfrak{p}$ is the Steinberg representation. Assuming that the representation is non-critical at $\mathfrak{p}$ we construct automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants for the representation $π$. If the number field $F$ is totally real, we show that these automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants agree with the Fontaine-Mazur $\mathcal{L}$-invariant of the associated $p$-adic Galois representation. This generalizes a recent result of Spiess respectively Rosso and the first named author from the case of parallel weight $2$ to arbitrary cohomological weights.

On quaternionic rigid meromorphic cocyles

Recently, Darmon and Vonk initiated the theory of rigid meromorphic cocycles for the group $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}[1/p])$. One of their major results is the algebraicity of the divisor associated to such a cocycle. We generalize the result to the setting of $\mathfrak{p}$-arithmetic subgroups of inner forms of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over arbitrary number fields. The method of proof differs from the one of Darmon and Vonk. Their proof relies on an explicit description of the cohomology via modular symbols and continued fractions, whereas our main tool is Bieri-Eckmann duality for arithmetic groups.

Automorphic L-invariants for reductive groups

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a number field $F$, which is split at a finite place $\mathfrak{p}$ of $F$, and let $π$ be a cuspidal automorphic representation of $G$, which is cohomological with respect to the trivial coefficient system and Steinberg at $\mathfrak{p}$. We use the cohomology of $\mathfrak{p}$-arithmetic subgroups of $G$ to attach automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants to $π$. This generalizes a construction of Darmon (respectively Spieß), who considered the case $G=GL_2$ over the rationals (respectively over a totally real number field). These $\mathcal{L}$-invariants depend a priori on a choice of degree of cohomology, in which the representation $π$ occurs. We show that they are independent of this choice provided that the $π$-isotypical part of cohomology is cyclic over Venkatesh's derived Hecke algebra. Further, we show that automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants can be detected by completed cohomology. Combined with a local-global compatibility result of Ding it follows that for certain representations of definite unitary groups the automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants are equal to the Fontaine-Mazur $\mathcal{L}$-invariants of the associated Galois representation.

Gelfand's trick for the spherical derived Hecke algebra

Gelfand's trick shows that the spherical Hecke algebra of a $p$-adic split reductive group is commutative. We adapt this strategy in order to show that the spherical derived Hecke algebra is graded-commutative under mild assumptions on the coefficient ring.

Plectic Stark-Heegner points

We propose a conjectural construction of global points on modular elliptic curves over arbitrary number fields, generalizing both the p-adic construction of Heegner points via Cerednik-Drinfeld uniformization and the definition of classical Stark-Heegner points. In alignment with Nekovar and Scholl's plectic conjectures, we expect the non-triviality of these plectic Stark-Heegner points to control the Mordell-Weil group of higher rank elliptic curves. We provide some indirect evidence for our conjectures by showing that higher order derivatives of anticyclotomic p-adic L-functions compute plectic invariants.

On Shalika models and p-adic L-Functions

We use modular symbols to construct p-adic L-functions for cohomological cuspidal automorphic representations on GL(2n), which admit a Shalika model. Our construction differs from former ones in that it systematically makes use of the representation theory of p-adic groups.

Leading terms of anticyclotomic Stickelberger elements and p-adic periods

Let E be a quadratic extension of a totally real number field. We construct Stickelberger elements for Hilbert modular forms of parallel weight 2 in anticyclotomic extensions of E. Extending methods developed by Dasgupta and Spieß from the multiplicative group to an arbitrary one-dimensional torus we bound the order of vanishing of these Stickelberger elements from below and, in the analytic rank zero situation, we give a description of their leading terms via automorphic L-invariants. If the field E is totally imaginary, we use the p-adic uniformization of Shimura curves to show the equality between automorphic and arithmetic L-invariants. This generalizes a result of Bertolini and Darmon from the case that the ground field is the field of rationals to arbitrary totally real number fields.

Derived Hecke algebra and automorphic L-invariants

Let $π$ be a cohomological automorphic representation of $PGL(2)$ over a number field of arbitrary signature and assume that the local component of $π$ at a prime $\mathfrak{p}$ is the Steinberg representation. In this situation one can define an automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariant for each cohomological degree in which the system of Hecke eigenvalues associated to $π$ occurs. We show that these $\mathcal{L}$-invariants are (essentially) the same if the $π$-isotypic component of the cohomology is generated by the minimal degree cohomology as a module over Venkatesh's derived Hecke algebra.

Functoriality of automorphic L-invariants and applications

We study the behaviour of automorphic L-Invariants associated to cuspidal representations of GL(2) of cohomological weight 0 under abelian base change and Jacquet-Langlands lifts to totally definite quaternion algebras. Under a standard non-vanishing hypothesis on automorphic L-functions and some technical restrictions on the automorphic representation and the base field we get a simple proof of the equality of automorphic and arithmetic L-invariants. This together with Spiess' results on p-adic L-functions yields a new proof of the exceptional zero conjecture for modular elliptic curves - at least, up to sign.
