We discuss Waldspurger’s local period integral for newforms in new cases. The main tool is the work of Hu and Nelson (2018) on Waldspurger’s period integral using minimal vectors, and the explicit relation between newforms and minimal vectors. We use a representation-theoretical trick to simplify computations for newforms. As an example, we compute the local integral coming from a special arithmetic setting which was used to study the 3-part full BSD conjecture by Hu et al. (2019).

Let E be a quadratic algebra over a number field F. Let E(g, s) be an Eisenstein series on GL2(E), and let F be a cuspidal automorphic form on GL2(F). We will consider in this paper the following automorphic integral: ∫ZAGL2(F)∖GL2(AF)F(g)E(g,s)dg. This is in some sense the complementary case to the well-known Rankin–Selberg integral and the triple product formula. We will approach this integral by Waldspurger’s formula, giving a criterion about when the integral is automatically zero, and otherwise the L-functions it represents. We will also calculate the local integrals at some ramified places, where the level of the ramification can be arbitrarily large.

Let N be a fixed integer and f be a holomorphic newform of level q⁠, weight k and trivial nebentypus, where q is a multiple of N⁠. In this article, we prove that the pushforward to the modular curve of level N of the mass measure of f tends weakly to the Haar measure as qk→∞⁠. This generalizes the previous results for modular curve of level 1. The main innovation of this article is to obtain an upper bound for the local integral which cancels the convexity bound of the corresponding L-function in level aspect.

We study elliptic curves of the form x^3+y^3=2^p and x^3+y^3=2p^2 where p is any odd prime satisfying p ≡ 2 mod 9 or p ≡ 5 mod 9. We first show that the 3-part of the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture holds for these curves. Then we relate their 2-Selmer group to the 2-rank of the ideal class group of Q(\sqrt[3]{p}) to obtain some examples of elliptic curves with rank one and non-trivial 2-part of the Tate-Shafarevich group.

The paper uses Iwasawa theory at the prime 𝑝=2 to prove non-vanishing theorems for the value at 𝑠=1 of the complex 𝐿-series of certain quadratic twists of the Gross family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication by the field 𝐾 = ℚ(√(-q)), where 𝑞 is any prime ≡ 7 mod 8. Our results establish some broad generalizations of the non-vanishing theorem first proven by Rohrlich using complex analytic methods. Such non-vanishing theorems are important because it is known that they imply the finiteness of the Mordell–Weil group and the Tate–Shafarevich group of the corresponding elliptic curves over the Hilbert class field of 𝐾. It is essential for the proofs to study the Iwasawa theory of the higher dimensional abelian variety with complex multiplication which is obtained by taking the restriction of scalars to 𝐾 of the particular elliptic curve with complex multiplication introduced by Gross.

For primes q≡7 mod 16, the present manuscript shows that elementary methods enable one to prove surprisingly strong results about the Iwasawa theory of the Gross family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of the field K=Q(√(-q)), which are in perfect accord with the predictions of the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer. We also prove some interesting phenomena related to a classical conjecture of Greenberg, and give a new proof of an old theorem of Hasse.

We develop a general procedure to study the combinatorial structure of Arthur packets for p-adic quasisplit Sp(N) and O(N) following the works of Mœglin. This allows us to answer many delicate questions concerning the Arthur packets of these groups, for example the size of the packets.

This paper is devoted to finding the highest possible focus order of planar polynomial differential equations. The results consist of two parts: (i) we explicitly construct a class of concrete systems of degree n, where n+1 is a prime p or a power of a prime p^k, and show that these systems can have a focus order n^2-n; (ii) we theoretically prove the existence of polynomial systems of degree n having a focus order n^2-1 for any even number n. Corresponding results for odd n and more concrete examples having higher focus orders are given too.

In this paper we prove the equidistribution of the restriction of the mass of automorphic newforms to a nonsplit torus in the depth aspect. This result is better than the current known results on the similar problem in the eigenvalue aspect. The method is relatively elementary and makes use of the known effective QUE result in the depth aspect.

In this short paper we give the sub-local upper bound for the sup norm of an automorphic form on PGL_n, whose associated automorphic representation has finite conductor C(π)=p^c with c→∞, and its local component at the place of ramification is a minimal vector belonging to an irreducible representation with generic induction datum.
