Most notably, all examples are Coleman units. We obtain our results by studying rank one shtukas in which both zero and pole are generic, i.~e., shtukas not associated to any Drinfeld module.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-06-26T16:50:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11R37", "11T99" ], "keywords": [ "global field", "positive characteristic", "hypergeometric ratios", "algebraic functions possessing properties consistent", "interpolation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......6653A" } } }
