9780821819463: P-Adic L-Functions and P-Adic Representations (Smf/Ams Texts and Monographs, V. 3)

Synopsis

Presents a theory of p -adic L -functions coming directly from p -adic Galois representations (or, more generally, from motives). This theory encompasses a construction of the module of p -adic L -functions via the arithmetic theory and a conjectural definition of the p -adic L -function via its special values. Originally published in French by SociTtT MathTmatique de France in 1995. Since the original publication, the field has undergone significant progress, and these advances are noted in this English edition. Author's credentials are not available. Annotation c.
