We prove algebraicity of critical values of certain Spin $L$-functions. More precisely, our results concern $L(s, \pi \otimes \chi, \mathrm{Spin})$ for cuspidal automorphic representations $\pi$ associated to a holomorphic Siegel eigenform on $\mathrm{GSp}_6$, Dirichlet characters $\chi$, and critical points $s$ to the right of the center of symmetry. We use the strategy of relating the $L$-values to properties of Eisenstein series, and a significant portion of the paper concerns the Fourier coefficients of these Eisenstein series. Unlike in prior algebraicity results following this strategy, our Eisenstein series are on a group $G$ that has no known moduli problem, and the $L$-functions are related to the Eisenstein series through a non-unique model., Comment: 60 pages.

The aim of this paper is twofold. We first present a construction of overconvergent automorphic sheaves for Siegel modular forms by generalising the perfectoid method, originally introduced by Chojecki-Hansen-Johansson for automorphic forms on compact Shimura curves over $\mathbf{Q}$. These sheaves are then verified to be isomorphic to the ones introduced by Andreatta-Iovita-Pilloni. Secondly, we establish an overconvergent Eichler-Shimura morphism for Siegel modular forms, generalising the result of Andreatta-Iovita-Stevens for elliptic modular forms.

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed, complete, non-Archimedean valued field of characteristic zero, and let $\mathscr{X}$ be a $K$-analytic space (in the sense of Huber). In this work, we pursue a non-Archimedean characterization of Campana's notion of specialness. We say $\mathscr{X}$ is $K$-analytically special if there exists a connected, finite type algebraic group $G/K$, a dense open subset $\mathscr{U}\subset G^{\text{an}}$ with $\text{codim}(G^{\text{an}}\setminus \mathscr{U}) \geq 2$, and an analytic morphism $\mathscr{U} \to \mathscr{X}$ which is Zariski dense. With this definition, we prove several results which illustrate that this definition correctly captures Campana's notion of specialness in the non-Archimedean setting. These results inspire us to make non-Archimedean counterparts to conjectures of Campana. As preparation for our proofs, we prove auxiliary results concerning the indeterminacy locus of a meromorphic mapping between $K$-analytic spaces, the notion of pseudo-$K$-analytically Brody hyperbolic, and extensions of meromorphic maps from smooth, irreducible $K$-analytic spaces to the analytification of a semi-abelian variety., Comment: 31 pages; comments welcome!

Given a graph and an integer $k$, it is an NP-complete problem to decide whether there is a dominating set of size at most $k$. In this paper we study this problem for the Kn\"odel Graph on $n$ vertices using elementary number theory techniques. In particular, we show an explicit upper bound for the domination number of the Kn\"odel Graph on $n$ vertices any time that we can find a prime number $p$ dividing $n$ for which $2$ is a primitive root., Comment: Comments welcome!

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 Spie{\ss}: 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., Comment: 27 pages, expanded exposition, final version, to appear in Compositio Mathematica

In the first part, we revisit the theory of Drinfeld modular curves and $\pi$-adic Drinfeld modular forms for GL(2) from the perfectoid point of view. In the second part, we review open problems for families of Drinfeld modular forms for GL(n)., Comment: 4 figures

Let $F$ be a function field over $\mathbb{F}_q$, $A$ its ring of regular functions outside a place $\infty$ and $\mathfrak{p}$ a prime ideal of $A$. First, we develop Hida theory for Drinfeld modular forms of rank $r$ which are of slope zero for a suitably defined Hecke operator $\mathrm{U}_{\mathfrak{p}}$. Second, we show the existence in the finite slope case of families of Drinfeld modular forms varying continuously with respect to the weight. Finally, we show a classicity result: an overconvergent Drinfeld modular form of sufficiently small slope with respect to the weight is a classical Drinfeld modular form., Comment: In French. 35 pages.

We study the derivative of the standard $p$-adic $L$-function associated with a $P$-ordinary Siegel modular form (for $P$ a parabolic subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}(n)$) when it presents a semi-stable trivial zero. This implies part of Greenberg's conjecture on the order and leading coefficient of $p$-adic $L$-functions at such trivial zero. We use the method of Greenberg-Stevens. For the construction of the improved $p$-adic $L$-function we develop Hida theory for non-cuspidal Siegel modular forms.

We develop Hida theory for Shimura varieties of type A without ordinary locus. In particular we show that the dimension of the space of ordinary forms is bounded independently of the weight and that there is a module of $\Lambda$-adic cuspidal ordinary forms which is of finite type over $\Lambda$, where $\Lambda$ is a twisted Iwasawa algebra.

Generalising the recent method of Andreatta, Iovita, and Pilloni for cuspidal forms, we construct an eigenvariety for symplectic and unitary groups that parametrises systems of eigenvalues of overconvergent and locally analytic $p$-adic automorphic forms. This is achieved by gluing some intermediates eigenvarieties of a fixed 'degree of cuspidality'. The dimension of these eigenvarieties is explicit and depends on the degree of cuspidality, it is maximal for cuspidal forms and it is $1$ for forms that are 'not cuspidal at all'. Under mild assumption, we are able to prove a conjecture of Urban about the dimension of the irreducible components of Hansen's eigenvariety in the case of the group $\mathrm{GSp}_4$ over $\mathbb{Q}$., Comment: 33 pages.

In this paper we construct a two variables $p$-adic $L$-function for the standard representation associated with a Hida family of parallel weight genus $g$ Siegel forms, using a method previously developed by B\"ocherer--Schmidt in one variable. When a form of weight $g+1$ is Steinberg at $p$, a trivial zero appears and, using the method of Greenberg--Stevens, we calculate the first derivative of this $p$-adic $L$-function and show that it has the form predicted by a conjecture of Greenberg on trivial zeros., Comment: Comments welcome

We prove in some cases a formula for the Greenberg-Benois $\mathcal{L}$-invariant of the spin, standard and adjoint Galois representations associated with Siegel-Hilbert modular forms. In order to simplify the calculation, we give a new definition of the $\mathcal{L}$-invariant for a Galois representation $V$ of a number field $F\neq \mathbb{Q}$; we also check that it is compatible with Benois' definition for $\mathrm{Ind}_F^{\mathbb{Q}}(V)$., Comment: Comments welcome

In this paper we recall the method of Greenberg and Stevens to calculate derivatives of p-adic L-functions using deformations of Galois representation and we apply it to the symmetric square of a modular form Steinberg at p. Under certain hypotheses on the conductor and the Nebentypus, this prove a conjecture of Greenberg and Benois on trivial zeros., Comment: 23 pages, comments welcome

Let f be a modular form of weight k and Nebentypus $\psi$. By generalizing a construction of Dabrowski and Delbourgo, we construct a p-adic L-function interpolating the special values of the L-function $L(s,\mathrm{Sym}^2(f)\otimes \xi)$, where $\xi$ is a Dirichlet character. When s=k-1 and $\xi=\psi^{-1}$, this p-adic L-function vanishes due to the presence of a so-called trivial zero. We give a formula for the derivative at s=k-1 of this p-adic L-function when the form f is Steinberg at p. If the weight of f is even, the conductor is even and squarefree, and the Nebentypus is trivial this formula implies a conjecture of Benois.

Let p be an odd prime and F a totally real number field. Let f be a Hilbert cuspidal eigenform of parallel weight 2, trivial Nebentypus and ordinary at p. It is possible to construct a p-adic L-function which interpolates the complex L-function associated to the symmetric square representation of f. This p-adic L-function vanishes at s=1 even if the complex L-function does not. Assuming p inert and f Steinberg at p, we give a formula for the p-adic derivative at s=1 of this p-adic L-function, generalizing unpublished work of Greenberg and Tilouine. Under some hypotheses on the conductor of f we prove a particular case of a conjecture of Greenberg on trivial zeros., Comment: New introduction, submitted, comments welcome
