Truncated Product Representations for L-Functions in the Hyperelliptic Ensemble
This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from the publisher via the DOI in this recordWe investigate the approximation of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over function fields by truncations of their Euler products. We first establish representations for such L-functions as products over prime polynomials times products over their zeros. This is the hybrid formula in function fields. We then prove that partial Euler products are good approximations of an L-function away from its zeros, and that, when the length of the product tends to infinity, we recover the original L-function. We also obtain explicit expressions for the arguments of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over function fields and for the arguments of their partial Euler products. In the second part of the paper we construct, for each quadratic Dirichlet L-function over a function field, an auxiliary function based on the approximate functional equation that equals the L-function on the critical line. We also construct a parametrized family of approximations of these auxiliary functions, prove the Riemann hypothesis holds for them, and that their zeros are related to those of the associated L-function. Finally, we estimate the counting function for the zeros of this family of approximations, show that these zeros cluster near those of the associated L-function, and that, when the parameter is not too large, almost all the zeros of the approximations are simple.JCA was partially supported by a Research in Pairs - Scheme 4 London Mathematical Society grant.

Evidence for the classical integrability of the complete AdS(4) x CP(3) superstring
We construct a zero-curvature Lax connection in a sub-sector of the
superstring theory on AdS(4) x CP(3) which is not described by the
OSp(6|4)/U(3) x SO(1,3) supercoset sigma-model. In this sub-sector worldsheet
fermions associated to eight broken supersymmetries of the type IIA background
are physical fields. As such, the prescription for the construction of the Lax
connection based on the Z_4-automorphism of the isometry superalgebra OSp(6|4)
does not do the job. So, to construct the Lax connection we have used an
alternative method which nevertheless relies on the isometry of the target
superspace and kappa-symmetry of the Green-Schwarz superstring.Comment: 1+26 pages; v2: minor typos corrected, acknowledgements adde
Computing the zeros of the partial sums of the Riemann zeta function
In this paper, we introduce a formula for the exact number of zeros of every partial sum of the Riemann zeta function inside infinitely many rectangles of the critical strips where they are situated
