Simultaneous Kummer congruences and $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-orientations of KO and tmf

Building on results of M. Ando, M.J. Hopkins and C. Rezk, we show the existence of uncountably many $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-String orientations of real K-theory KO and of topological modular forms tmf, generalizing the $\hat{A}$- (resp. the Witten) genus. Furthermore, the obstruction to lifting an $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-String orientations from KO to tmf is identified with a classical Iwasawa-theoretic condition. The common key to all these results is a precise understanding of the classical Kummer congruences, imposed for all primes simultaneously. This result is of independent arithmetic interest.

Brown representability in $\A^1$-homotopy theory

We prove the following result of V. Voevodsky. If $S$ is a finite dimensional noetherian scheme such that $S=\cup_α\Spec(R_α)$ for {\em countable} rings $R_α$, then the stable motivic homotopy category over $S$ satisfies Brown representability.

A motivic version of Pellikaan's two variable zeta function

Combining the idea of motivic zeta function, due to Kapranov, and Pellikaan's definition of a two- variable zeta function for curves over finite fields in the present note we introduce a motivic two- variable zeta function for curves over arbitrary fields and prove the generalizations of Pellikaan's results in this context.
