We analyze the asymptotic behavior of certain twisted orbital integrals arising from the study of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties. The main tools include the Base Change Fundamental Lemma and q-analogues of the Kostant partition functions. As an application we prove a conjecture of Miaofen Chen and Xinwen Zhu, relating the set of irreducible components of an affine Deligne-Lusztig variety modulo the action of the σ-centralizer group to the Mirkovic-Vilonen basis of a certain weight space of a representation of the Langlands dual group.

Multizeta values in positive characteristic were first introduced and studied by Thakur. He and Lara Rodr\'{\i}guez \cite{LRT} discovered and conjectured certain zeta-like families. Kuan, Lin and Yu stated more conjectures about zeta-like multizeta values in \cite{LK}. In the present paper we study and give the transparent formula for certain Anderson-Thakur polynomials. This enables us to confirm the conjectured zeta-like families.

In two earlier papers with the same title, we studied connections between Voronoi’s formula in the divisor problem and Atkinson’s formula for the mean square of Riemann’s zeta-function. Now we consider this correspondence in terms of segments of sums appearing in these formulae and show that a certain arithmetic conjecture concerning the divisor function implies best possible bounds for the classical error terms Δ($x$) and$E$($T$).
