Background & Purpose

This course is a continuation of the course of last semester. We will introduce some recent advances in function field arithmetic. In particular, we will focus on the following as primary tools to study various problems related to Drinfeld modules and t-modules:

(I) t-motives

(II) Shtukas

(III) Bruhat-Tits trees and harmonic cochains

Outline

1. Special values as periods and logarithms of t-modules and applications

2. Cohomology theory of Shtukas and applications to special L-values

3. Eisenstein series, automorphic forms and Kronecker limit formulas
