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.     

Commutator of Riesz potential in <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic generalized Morrey spaces

Suppose that I _p ^α is the p-adic Riesz potential. In this paper, we established the boundedness of I _p ^α on the p-adic generalized Morrey spaces, as well as the boundedness of the commutators generated by the p-adic Riesz potential I _p ^α and p-adic generalized Campanato functions.     

On the Classification of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic UHF Banach Algebras

For any prime number p let Ω_p be the p-adic counterpart of the complex numbers C. In this paper we investigate the class of p-adic UHF Banach algebras. A p-adic UHF Banach algebra is any unital p-adic Banach algebra A of the form \(A = \overline {U{M_n}} \), where (M_n) is an increasing sequence of p-adic Banach subalgebras of M such that each M_n is generated over Ω_p by an algebraic system of matrix units {e _ij ^{( n)} | 1 ≤ i, j ≤ p_n }. The main result is that the supernatural number associated to a p-adic TUHF Banach algebra is an invariant of the algebra.     

Model of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic Random Walk in a Potential

We consider the p-adic random walk model in a potential which can be viewed as a generalization of p-adic random walk models used for describing protein conformational dynamics. This model is based on the Kolmogorov-Feller equations for the distribution function defined on the field of p-adic numbers in which the transition rate depends on ultrametric distance between the transition points as well as on function of potential violating the spatial homogeneity of a random process. This equation which will be called the equation of p-adic random walk in a potential, is equivalent to the equation of p-adic random walk with modified measure and reaction source. With a special choice of a power-law potential the last equation is shown to have an exact analytic solution. We find the analytic solution of the Cauchy problem for such equation with an initial condition, whose support lies in the ring of integer p-adic numbers.We also examine the asymptotic behaviour of the distribution function for large times. It is shown that in the limit t→∞ the distribution function tends to the equilibrium solution according to the law, which is bounded from above and below by power laws with the same exponent. Our principal conclusion is that the introduction of a potential in the model of p-adic random walk conserves the power-law behaviour of relaxation curves for large times.     

A <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic hard-core model with three states on a Cayley tree

We examine the p-adic hard-core model with three states on a Cayley tree. Translationinvariant and periodic p-adic Gibbs measures are studied for the hard-core model for k = 2. We prove that every p-adic Gibbs measure is bounded for p ≠ 2. We show in particular that there is no strong phased transition for a hard-core model on a Cayley tree of order k.     

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).     

Solvability of a Class of Nonlinear Pseudo-Differential Equations in ℝ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

In the present work the existence of continuous and bounded solutions for a class of nonlinear pseudo-differential equations on ? ⁿ is proved. The monotonicity, asymptotic behavior and other properties for obtained solutions are also presented. Mentioned class of equations arises in p-adic string theory.     

A Note on Complex <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic Exponential Fields

In this paper we apply Ax-Schanuel’s Theorem to the ultraproduct of p-adic fields in order to get some results towards algebraic independence of p-adic exponentials for almost all primes p.     

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.     

Congruences of two-variable <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis>-functions of congruent modular forms of different weights

Vatsal (Duke Math J 98(2):397–419, 1999) proved that there are congruences between the p-adic L-functions (constructed by Mazur and Swinnerton-Dyer in Invent Math 25:1–61, 1974) of congruent modular forms of the same weight under some conditions. On the other hand, Kim (J Number Theory 144: 188–218, 2014), the second author, constructed two-variable p-adic L-functions of modular forms attached to imaginary quadratic fields generalizing Hida’s work (Invent Math 79:159–195, 1985), and the novelty of his construction was that it works whether p is an ordinary prime or not. In this paper, we prove congruences between the two-variable p-adic L-functions (of the second author) of congruent modular forms of different but congruent weights under some conditions when p is a nonordinary prime for the modular forms. This result generalizes the work of Emerton et al. (Invent Math 163(3): 523–580, 2006), who proved similar congruences between the p-adic L-functions of congruent modular forms of congruent weights when p is an ordinary prime.     

Derivative at s = 1 of the p-adic L-function of the symmetric square of a Hilbert modular form

Let p ≥ 3 be a 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 with 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.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic Analogue of the Porous Medium Equation

We consider a nonlinear evolution equation for complex-valued functions of a real positive time variable and a p-adic spatial variable. This equation is a non-Archimedean counterpart of the fractional porous medium equation. Developing, as a tool, an \(L^1\)-theory of Vladimirov’s p-adic fractional differentiation operator, we prove m-accretivity of the appropriate nonlinear operator, thus obtaining the existence and uniqueness of a mild solution. We give also an example of an explicit solution of the p-adic porous medium equation.     

On periodic Gibbs measures of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic Potts model on a Cayley tree

In the present paper, we study the existence of periodic p-adic quasi Gibbs measures of p-adic Potts model over the Cayley tree of order two. We first prove that the renormalized dynamical system associated with the model is conjugate to the symbolic shift. As a consequence of this result we obtain the existence of countably many periodic p-adic Gibbs measures for the model.     

Hausdorff operators defined by measures on <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic linear spaces and their norms

For Hausdorff operator defined by a measure on p-adic linear space Q _p ⁿ we give the exact values for its norms in power type Morrey space,BMO(Q _p ⁿ ) and BLO(Q _p ⁿ ). Also we prove the sharp two-sided estimate for its norm in Herz space. These results generalize some previous results of the author.     

Phase Transition of Mixed Type <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic λ-Ising Model on Cayley Tree

In the present paper, we consider an interaction of the nearest-neighbors and next nearest-neighbors for the mixed type p-adic λ-Ising model with spin values {?1, +1} on the Cayley tree of order two.We obtained the uniqueness and existence of the p-adic quasi Gibbs measures for the model. Thereafter, as a main result, we proved the occurrence of phase transition for the p-adic λ-Ising model on the Cayley tree of order two. To establish the results, we employed some properties of p-adic numbers. Therefore, our results are not valid in the real case.     

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.

     

Weak and strong estimates for rough Hausdorff type operator defined on <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic linear space

For rough Hausdorff type operator defined on p-adic linear space Q _p ⁿ and its commutator with symbol from Lipschitz space, we give sufficient conditions of their boundedness from one Lorentz space into another.     

An interpretation of the tame local Langlands correspondence for <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic <Emphasis Type="Italic">PGSp</Emphasis>(4) from the perspective of real groups

Let F be a p-adic field. In this paper, we continue the work of the first author and give a new realization of the tame local Langlands correspondence for PGSp(4, F) that is analogous to the construction of the local Langlands correspondence for real groups.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic mathematical physics: the first 30 years

p-Adic mathematical physics is a branch of modern mathematical physics based on the application of p-adic mathematical methods in modeling physical and related phenomena. It emerged in 1987 as a result of efforts to find a non-Archimedean approach to the spacetime and string dynamics at the Planck scale, but then was extended to many other areas including biology. This paper contains a brief review of main achievements in some selected topics of p-adic mathematical physics and its applications, especially in the last decade. Attention is mainly paid to developments with promising future prospects.     

Generalized <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Adic Fourier Transform and Estimates of Integral Modulus of Continuity in Terms of This Transform

We consider a new class of functions on the p-adic linear space ? _p ⁿ for which a Fourier transform can be defined.We prove equalities of Parseval type, an inversion formula and a sufficient condition for a function to be represented as this Fourier transform. Also we give a sharp estimate of the L²(? _p ⁿ ) modulus of continuity in terms of Fourier transform generalizing the result of S. S. Platonov in the case n = 1. Finally we prove a generalization of this result and its converse for L^q(? _p ⁿ ) with appropriate q.
