چکیده
We give two applications of our earlier work[4]. We compute the p-adic cohomology of certain exponential sums on An involving a polynomial whose homogeneous component of highest degree defines a projective hypersurface with at worst weighted homogeneous isolated singularities. This study was motivated by recent work of Garćıa[9]. We also compute the p-adic cohomology of certain exponential sums on An whose degree is divisible by the characteristic.

We prove a vanishing theorem for the p-adic cohomology of exponential sums on An. In particular, we obtain new classes of exponential sums on An that have a single nonvanishing p-adic cohomology group. The dimension of this cohomology group equals a sum of Milnor numbers.
متن کاملExponential Sums on A
Let d = degree of f and write f = f (d) + f (d−1) + · · ·+ f , where f (j) is homogeneous of degree j. A by now classical theorem of Deligne[2, Théorème 8.4] says that if (p, d) = 1 and f (d) = 0 defines a smooth hypersurface in P, then L(A, f ; t) n+1 is a polynomial of degree (d − 1), all of whose reciprocal roots have absolute value equal to q. This implies the estimate |S(A(Fqi), f)| ≤ (d− ...
متن کاملDivisibility of Exponential Sums via Elementary Methods
We present a totally elementary method for evaluating the order of p-divisibility of exponential sums over a prime field. This method unifies and sometimes improves many previously known results, such as those of Ax-Katz, Moreno-Moreno, Adolphson-Sperber, and CaoSun.

where f (j) is homogeneous of degree j. Theorem 1.4. Suppose (p, δ) = 1 and f (δ) = 0 defines a smooth hypersurface in P. Then L(A, f ; t) n+1 is a polynomial of degree (δ − 1), all of whose reciprocal roots have absolute value q. For exponential sums on A, several generalizations of Deligne’s result have been proved ([1, 2, 5, 7]). In all these theorems, the hypothesis implies that f , regarde...
متن کاملVARIATION OF p -ADIC NEWTON POLYGONS FOR L-FUNCTIONS OF EXPONENTIAL SUMS
Abstract. In this paper, we continue to develop the systematic decomposition theory [18] for the generic Newton polygon attached to a family of zeta functions over finite fields and more generally a family of L-functions of n-dimensional exponential sums over finite fields. Our aim is to establish a new collapsing decomposition theorem (Theorem 3.7) for the generic Newton polygon. A number of a...
