On the orders of zero of certain functions
The aim of this paper is to clarify the ordinarity of cyclotomic function fields. In the previous work [J. Number Theory 133 (2013)], the author determined all monic irreducible polynomials m such that the maximal real subfield of the mth cyclotomic function field is ordinary. In this paper, we extend this result to the general case.
The family of symmetric powers of an L-function associated with an elliptic curve with complex multiplication has received much attention from algebraic, automorphic and p-adic points of view. Here we examine one explicit such family from the perspectives of classical analytic number theory and random matrix theory, especially focusing on evidence for the symmetry type of the family. In particular, we investigate the values at the central point and give evidence that this family can be modeled by...
Improving on some results of J.-L. Nicolas [15], the elements of the set , for which the partition function (i.e. the number of partitions of with parts in ) is even for all are determined. An asymptotic estimate to the counting function of this set is also given.
