Simultaneous approximation problems of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic numbers and <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic knapsack cryptosystems - Alice in <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic numberland

In this paper we construct the multi-dimensional p-adic approximation lattices by using simultaneous approximation problems (SAP) of p-adic numbers and we estimate the l _∞ norm of the p-adic SAP solutions theoretically by applying Dirichlet’s principle and numerically by using the LLL algorithm. By using the SAP solutions as private keys, the security of which depends on NP-hardness of SAP or the shortest vector problems (SVP) of p-adic lattices, we propose a p-adic knapsack cryptosystem with commitment schemes, in which the sender Alice prepares ciphertexts and the verification keys in her p-adic numberland.     

Pseudodifferential <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic vector fields and pseudodifferentiation of a composite <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic function

We discuss transformation of p-adic pseudodifferential operators (in the one-dimensional and multidimensional cases) with respect to p-adic maps which correspond to automorphisms of the tree of balls in the corresponding p-adic spaces. In the dimension one we find a rule of transformation for pseudodifferential operators. In particular we find the formula of pseudodifferentiation of a composite function with respect to the Vladimirov p-adic fractional operator. We describe the frame of wavelets for the group of parabolic automorphisms of the tree T (O _p ) of balls in O _p . In many dimensions we introduce the group of mod p-affine transformations, the family of pseudodifferential operators corresponding to pseudodifferentiation along vector fields on the tree T (O _p ) and obtain a rule of transformation of the introduced pseudodifferential operators with respect to mod p-affine transformations.     

Conductors in <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic families

Let the function \(s_g\) map a positive integer to the sum of its digits in the base g. A number k is called n-flimsy in the base g if \(s_g(nk)<s_g(k)\). Clearly, given a base g, \(g\geqslant 2\), if n is a power of g, then there does not exist an n-flimsy number in the base g. We give a constructive proof of the existence of an n-flimsy number in the base g for all the other values of n (such an existence follows from the results of Schmidt and Steiner, but the explicit construction is a novelty). Our algorithm for construction of such a number, say k, is very flexible in the sense that, by easy modifications, we can impose further requirements on k—k ends with a given sequence of digits, k begins with a given sequence of digits, k is divisible by a given number (or belongs to a certain congruence class modulo a given number), etc.     

On the rank of compact <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic Lie groups

The rank of a profinite group G is the basic invariant \({{\rm rk}(G):={\rm sup}\{d(H) \mid H \leq G\}}\), where H ranges over all closed subgroups of G and d(H) denotes the minimal cardinality of a topological generating set for H. A compact topological group G admits the structure of a p-adic Lie group if and only if it contains an open pro-p subgroup of finite rank. For every compact p-adic Lie group G one has rk(G) ≥ dim(G), where dim(G) denotes the dimension of G as a p-adic manifold. In this paper we consider the converse problem, bounding rk(G) in terms of dim(G). Every profinite group G of finite rank admits a maximal finite normal subgroup, its periodic radical π(G). One of our main results is the following. Let G be a compact p-adic Lie group such that π(G) = 1, and suppose that p is odd. If \(\{g \in G \mid g^{p-1}=1 \}\) is equal to {1}, then rk(G) = dim(G).     

On the Lie theory of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic analytic groups

The aim of this paper is to fill a small, but fundamental, gap in the theory of p-adic analytic groups. We illustrate by example that the now standard notion of a uniformly powerful pro-p group is more restrictive than Lazards concept of a saturable pro-p group. For instance, the Sylow-pro-p subgroups of many classical groups are saturable, but need not be uniformly powerful. Extending work of Ilani, we obtain a correspondence between subgroups and Lie sublattices of saturable pro-p groups. This leads to applications, for instance, in the subject of subgroup growth.Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 22E20     

Upper triangular operators and <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis>-functions

For a newform f for Γ₀(N) of even weight k supersingular at a prime p ≥ 5, by using infinite dimensional p-adic analysis, we prove that the p-adic L-function L _p (f,α; χ) has finite order of vanishing at any character of the form [(c)\tilde] _s ( x ) = x^s\tilde \chi _s \left( x \right) = x^s. In particular, under the natural embedding of ℤ _p in the group of ℂ* _p -valued continuous characters of ℤ* _p , the order of vanishing at any point is finite.     

On Shalika models and <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis>-functions

We use modular symbols to construct p-adic L-functions for cohomological cuspidal automorphic representations on GL(2n), which admit a Shalika model. Our construction differs from former ones in that it systematically makes use of the representation theory of p-adic groups.     

Nonlocal dynamics of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic strings

We consider the construction of Lagrangians that might be suitable for describing the entire p-adic sector of an adelic open scalar string. These Lagrangians are constructed using the Lagrangian for p-adic strings with an arbitrary prime number p. They contain space-time nonlocality because of the d’Alembertian in the argument of the Riemann zeta function. We present a brief review and some new results.     

Finite groups with <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-supplemented <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-subgroups

Consider a finite group G. A subgroup is called S-quasinormal whenever it permutes with all Sylow subgroups of G. Denote by B _sG the largest S-quasinormal subgroup of G lying in B. A subgroup B is called S-supplemented in G whenever there is a subgroup T with G = BT and B∩T ≤ B _sG . A subgroup L of G is called a quaternionic subgroup whenever G has a section A/B isomorphic to the order 8 quaternion group such that L ≤ A and L ∩ B = 1. This article is devoted to proving the following theorem.     

Finite <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-central groups of height <Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>

A finite group G is called p ⁱ -central of height k if every element of order p ⁱ of G is contained in the k ^th -term ζ _k (G) of the ascending central series of G. If p is odd, such a group has to be p-nilpotent (Thm. A). Finite p-central p-groups of height p − 2 can be seen as the dual analogue of finite potent p-groups, i.e., for such a finite p-group P the group P/Ω₁(P) is also p-central of height p − 2 (Thm. B). In such a group P, the index of P ^p is less than or equal to the order of the subgroup Ω₁(P) (Thm. C). If the Sylow p-subgroup P of a finite group G is p-central of height p − 1, p odd, and N _G (P) is p-nilpotent, then G is also p-nilpotent (Thm. D). Moreover, if G is a p-soluble finite group, p odd, and P ∈ Syl _p (G) is p-central of height p − 2, then N _G (P) controls p-fusion in G (Thm. E). It is well-known that the last two properties hold for Swan groups (see [11]).     

The classification of irreducible admissible mod <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> representations of a <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic GL<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Subscript>

Let F be a finite extension of ℚ _p . Using the mod p Satake transform, we define what it means for an irreducible admissible smooth representation of an F-split p-adic reductive group over  [`( \mathbbF)]<sub>p</sub>\overline{ \mathbb{F}}_{p} to be supersingular. We then give the classification of irreducible admissible smooth GL <sub>n</sub> (F)-representations over  [`( \mathbbF)]_p\overline{ \mathbb{F}}_{p} in terms of supersingular representations. As a consequence we deduce that supersingular is the same as supercuspidal. These results generalise the work of Barthel–Livné for n=2. For general split reductive groups we obtain similar results under stronger hypotheses.     

Multidimensional Hausdorff operator on <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic field

p-Adic analogs of Hausdorff operator are introduced. Sufficient conditions of its boundedness in p-adic Hardy and BMO spaces are given. The Titchmarsh-type theorem about commuting relations between Hausdorff operator, its conjugate and p-adic Fourier transform is established.     

The <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic order of some fibonomial coefficients whose entries are powers of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>

Let (F _n ) _n≥0 be the Fibonacci sequence. For 1 ≤ k ≤ m, the Fibonomial coefficient is defined as

$${\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} m \\ k \end{array}} \right]_F} = \frac{{{F_{m - k + 1}} \cdots {F_{m - 1}}{F_m}}}{{{F_1} \cdots {F_k}}}$$

. In 2013, Marques, Sellers and Trojovský proved that if p is a prime number such that p ≡ ±2 (mod 5), then \(p{\left| {\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]} \right._F}\) for all integers a ≥ 1. In 2015, Marques and Trojovský worked on the p-adic order of \({\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]_F}\) for all a ≥ 1 when p ≠ 5. In this paper, we shall provide the exact p-adic order of \({\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]_F}\) for all integers a, b ≥ 1 and for all prime number p.

     

The <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic sector of the adelic string

We study the construction of Lagrangians that can be considered the Lagrangians of the p-adic sector of an adelic open scalar string. Such Lagrangians are closely related to the Lagrangian for a single p-adic string and contain the Riemann zeta function with the d’Alembertian in its argument. In particular, we present a new Lagrangian obtained by an additive approach that combines all p-adic Lagrangians. This new Lagrangian is attractive because it is an analytic function of the d’Alembertian. Investigating the field theory with the Riemann zeta function is also interesting in itself.     

Multidimensional <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic wavelets for the deformed metric

The approach to p-adic wavelet theory from the point of view of representation theory is discussed. p-Adic wavelet frames can be constructed as orbits of some p-adic groups of transformations. These groups are automorphisms of the tree of balls in the p-adic space. In the present paper we consider deformations of the standard p-adic metric in many dimensions and construct some corresponding groups of transformations. We build several examples of p-adic wavelet bases. We show that the constructed wavelets are eigenvectors of some pseudodifferential operators.     

Cyclotomic Hecke Algebras of <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">r</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>)

In this note, we find a monomial basis of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra \({\mathcal{H}_{r,p,n}}\) of G(r,p,n) and show that the Ariki-Koike algebra \({\mathcal{H}_{r,n}}\) is a free module over \({\mathcal{H}_{r,p,n}}\), using the Gröbner-Shirshov basis theory. For each irreducible representation of \({\mathcal{H}_{r,p,n}}\), we give a polynomial basis consisting of linear combinations of the monomials corresponding to cozy tableaux of a given shape.     

Tempered representations of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic groups: special idempotents and topology

Let \(G=G(k)\) be a connected reductive group over a p-adic field k. The smooth (and tempered) complex representations of G can be considered as the nondegenerate modules over the Hecke algebra \({\mathcal {H}}={\mathcal {H}}(G)\) and the Schwartz algebra \({\mathcal {S}}={\mathcal {S}}(G)\) forming abelian categories \({\mathcal {M}}(G)\) and \({\mathcal {M}}^t(G)\), respectively. Idempotents \(e\in {\mathcal {H}}\) or \({\mathcal {S}}\) define full subcategories \({\mathcal {M}}_e(G)= \{V : {\mathcal {H}}eV=V\}\) and \({\mathcal {M}}_e^t(G)= \{V : {\mathcal {S}}eV=V\}\). Such an e is said to be special (in \({\mathcal {H}}\) or \({\mathcal {S}}\)) if the corresponding subcategory is abelian. Parallel to Bernstein’s result for \(e\in {\mathcal {H}}\) we will prove that, for special \(e \in {\mathcal {S}}\), \({\mathcal {M}}_e^t(G) = \prod _{\Theta \in \theta _e} {\mathcal {M}}^t(\Theta )\) is a finite direct product of component categories \({\mathcal {M}}^t(\Theta )\), now referring to connected components of the center of \({\mathcal {S}}\). A special \(e\in {\mathcal {H}}\) will be also special in \({\mathcal {S}}\), but idempotents \(e\in {\mathcal {H}}\) not being special can become special in \({\mathcal {S}}\). To obtain conditions we consider the sets \(\mathrm{Irr}^t(G) \subset \mathrm{Irr}(G)\) of (tempered) smooth irreducible representations of G, and we view \(\mathrm{Irr}(G)\) as a topological space for the Jacobson topology defined by the algebra \({\mathcal {H}}\). We use this topology to introduce a preorder on the connected components of \(\mathrm{Irr}^t(G)\). Then we prove that, for an idempotent \(e \in {\mathcal {H}}\) which becomes special in \({\mathcal {S}}\), its support \(\theta _e\) must be saturated with respect to that preorder. We further analyze the above decomposition of \({\mathcal {M}}_e^t(G)\) in the case where G is k-split with connected center and where \(e = e_J \in {\mathcal {H}}\) is the Iwahori idempotent. Here we can use work of Kazhdan and Lusztig to relate our preorder on the support \(\theta _{e_J}\) to the reverse of the natural partial order on the unipotent classes in G. We finish by explicitly computing the case \(G=GL_n\), where \(\theta _{e_J}\) identifies with the set of partitions of n. Surprisingly our preorder (which is a partial order now) is strictly coarser than the reverse of the dominance order on partitions.     

The classification of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-local finite groups over the extraspecial group of order <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis><Superscript>3</Superscript> and exponent <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>

In this paper we classify the p-local finite groups over p¹⁺²₊, the extraspecial group of order p³ and exponent p for odd p. This study reduces to the classification of the saturated fusion systems over p¹⁺²₊, which will be characterized by the outer automorphism group, the number of -radical subgroups and the automorphism group of each nontrivial -radical subgroup. As part of this classification, we obtain three new exotic 7-local finite groups.Partially supported by MCYT grant BFM2001-2035.Partially supported by MCYT grant BFM2001-1825.Both authors have been supported by the EU grant nr HPRN-CT-1999-00119.in final form: 1 October 2003     

Simultaneous diophantine approximation in non-degenerate <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic manifolds

An S-arithmetic Khintchine-type theorem for products of non-degenerate analytic p-adic manifolds is proved for the convergence case. In the p-adic case the divergence part is also obtained.
