A note on the second supplementary law of rational power residue symbols

As a natural generalization of the Legendre symbol, the $q$-th power residue symbol $(a/p)_q$ is defined for primes $p$ and $q$ with $p\equiv 1 \bmod q$. In this paper, we generalize the second supplementary law by providing an explicit condition for $(q/p)_q = 1$, when $p$ has a special form $p = \sum_{i=0}^{q-1} m^i n^{q-1-i}$. This condition is expressed in terms of the polylogarithm $\mathrm{Li}_{1-q}(x)$ of negative index. Our proof relies on an argument similar to Lemmermeyer's proof of Euler's conjectures for cubic residue.

Note on Coleman's formula for the absolute Frobenius on Fermat curves

Coleman calculated the absolute Frobenius on Fermat curves explicitly. In this paper we show that a kind of $p$-adic continuity implies a large part of his formula. To do this, we study a relation between functional equations of the ($p$-adic) gamma function and monomial relations on ($p$-adic) CM-periods.

Minimal relative units of the cyclotomic $\mathbb Z_2$-extension

Let $\mathbb B_n:=\mathbb Q(\cos(π/2^{n+1}))$. For the relative norm map $\mathrm{N}_{n/n-1} \colon \mathcal O_{\mathbb B_n}^\times \rightarrow \mathcal O_{\mathbb B_{n-1}}^\times$ on the units group, we define $RE_n:=\mathrm{N}_{n/n-1}^{-1}(\{\pm 1\})$, $RE_n^+:=\mathrm{N}_{n/n-1}^{-1}(\{1\})$. Komatsu conjectured that $\mathrm{Tr} ε^2 \geq 2^n(2^{n+1}-1)$ for $ε\in RE_n -\{\pm 1\}$. Morisawa and Okazaki showed that it holds for $ε\in RE_n -RE_n^+$. In this paper we study the case $ε\in RE_n^+$. We conjecture that $\min \{\mathrm{Tr} ε^2 \mid ε\in RE_n^+-\{\pm 1\}\}= 2^n(1+8c_n)$, where $c_1:=2$ and $c_n:=2\cdot \mathrm{round}(2^n/5)$ ($n\geq 2$). We show that this holds for $n\leq 6$ and that a "half" of this: $\min \{\mathrm{Tr} ε^2 \mid ε\in RE_n^+-\{\pm 1\}\} \leq 2^n(1+8c_n)$ holds for even $n$. We also observe a relation to the class number problem.

The characterization of cyclic cubic fields with power integral bases

We provide an equivalent condition for the monogenity of the ring of integers of any cyclic cubic field. We show that if a cyclic cubic field is monogenic then it is a simplest cubic field $K_t$ which is the splitting field of a Shanks cubic polynomial $f_t(x):=x^3-tx^2-(t + 3)x-1$ with $t \in \mathbb Z$. Moreover we give an equivalent condition for when $K_t$ is monogenic, which is explicitly written in terms of $t$.

On a common refinement of Stark units and Gross-Stark units

The purpose of this paper is to formulate and study a common refinement of a version of Stark's conjecture and its $p$-adic analogue, in terms of Fontaine's $p$-adic period ring and $p$-adic Hodge theory. We construct period-ring-valued functions under a generalization of Yoshida's conjecture on the transcendental parts of CM-periods. Then we conjecture a reciprocity law on their special values concerning the absolute Frobenius action. We show that our conjecture implies a part of Stark's conjecture when the base field is an arbitrary real field and the splitting place is its real place. It also implies a refinement of the Gross-Stark conjecture under a certain assumption. When the base field is the rational number field, our conjecture follows from Coleman's formula on Fermat curves. We also prove some partial results in other cases.

On the ratios of Barnes' multiple gamma functions to the $p$-adic analogues

Let $F$ be a totally real field. For each ideal class $c$ of $F$ and each real embedding $ι$ of $F$, Hiroyuki Yoshida defined an invariant $X(c,ι)$ as a finite sum of log of Barnes' multiple gamma functions with some correction terms. Then the derivative value of the partial zeta function $ζ(s,c)$ has a canonical decomposition $ζ'(0,c)=\sum_ιX(c,ι)$, where $ι$ runs over all real embeddings of $F$. Yoshida studied the relation between $\exp(X(c,ι))$'s, Stark units, and Shimura's period symbol. Yoshida and the author also defined and studied the $p$-adic analogue $X_p(c,ι)$: In particular, we discussed the relation between the ratios $[\exp(X(c,ι)):\exp_p(X_p(c,ι))]$ and Gross-Stark units. In a previous paper, the author proved the algebraicity of some products of $\exp(X(c,ι))$'s. In this paper, we prove its $p$-adic analogue. Then, by using these algebraicity properties, we discuss the relation between the ratios $[\exp(X(c,ι)):\exp_p(X_p(c,ι))]$ and Stark units.

$p$-adic measures associated with zeta values and $p$-adic $\log$ multiple gamma functions

We study a relation between two refinements of the rank one abelian Gross-Stark conjecture: For a suitable abelian extension $H/F$ of number fields, a Gross-Stark unit is defined as a $p$-unit of $H$ satisfying some proporties. Let $τ\in \mathrm{Gal}(H/F)$. Yoshida and the author constructed the symbol $Y_p(τ)$ by using $p$-adic $\log$ multiple gamma functions, and conjectured that the $\log_p$ of a Gross-Stark unit can be expressed by $Y_p(τ)$. Dasgupta constructed the symbol $u_T(τ)$ by using the $p$-adic multiplicative integration, and conjectured that a Gross-Stark unit can be expressed by $u_T(τ)$. In this paper, we give an explicit relation between $Y_p(τ)$ and $u_T(τ)$.

On the algebraicity of some products of special values of Barnes' multiple gamma function

We consider partial zeta functions $ζ(s,c)$ associated with ray classes $c$'s of a totally real field. Stark's conjecture implies that an appropriate product of $\exp(ζ'(0,c))$'s is an algebraic number which is called a Stark unit. Shintani gave an explicit formula for $\exp(ζ'(0,c))$ in terms of Barnes' multiple gamma function. Yoshida ``decomposed'' Shintani's formula: he defined the symbol $X(c,ι)$ satisfying that $\exp(ζ'(0,c))=\prod_ι \exp(X(c,ι))$ where $ι$ runs over all real embeddings of $F$. Hence we can decompose a Stark unit into a product of $[F:\mathbb Q]$ terms. The main result is to show that $([F:\mathbb Q]-1)$ of them are algebraic numbers. We also study a relation between Yoshida's conjecture on CM-periods and Stark's conjecture.

Fermat curves and the reciprocity law on cyclotomic units

We define a "period ring-valued beta function" and give a reciprocity law on its special values. The proof is based on some results of Rohrlich and Coleman concerning Fermat curves. We also have the following application. Stark's conjecture implies that the exponential of the derivatives at $s=0$ of partial zeta functions are algebraic numbers which satisfy a reciprocity law under certain conditions. It follows from Euler's formulas and properties of cyclotomic units when the base field is the rational number field. In this paper, we provide an alternative (and partial) proof by using the reciprocity law on the period ring-valued beta function. In other words, the reciprocity law given in this paper is a refinement of the reciprocity law on cyclotomic units.
