ENGLISH ABSTRACT: It is well known that the ring of integers Z and the ring of polynomials A = Fr[T] over a finite field Fr have many properties in common. It is due to these properties that almost all the famous ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Major works done in Function Field Arithmetic show a strong analogy between the ring of integers Z and the ring of polynomials over a nite eld Fq[T]. While an algorithm has been discovered to factor ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Rank 2 Drinfeld modular forms have been studied for more than 30 years, and while it is known that a higher rank theory could be possible, higher rank Drinfeld modular forms have only recently been de ...

Class field theory describes the abelian extensions of a given field K in terms of various class groups of K, and can be viewed as one of the great successes of 20th century number theory. However, the main results in ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis deals with a function eld analog of the André-Oort conjecture. The (classical) André-Oort conjecture concerns the distribution of special points on Shimura varieties. In our case we consider ...
