We shall pass to a detailed construction. Denote by VC an n-dimensional over the field of com- plex numbers, such that the reduction of VC modulo the prime ideal over p is isomorphic to the variety V := V (Fq). (In other words, we assume that V can be lifted to the characteristic zero and the reduction modulo p is functo- rial; the corresponding category is described in [Hartshorne 2010, Theorem 22.1] [5].) Let B(VC, , σ) be the twisted homogeneous coordinate ring of L projective variety VC, where is the invertible of linear forms on VC L and σ an automorphism of VC, see [Stafford & van den Bergh 2001, p. 180] [14] for the details. The norm-closure of a self-adjoint representation of the ring B(VC, , σ) by the bounded linear operators on a Hilbert L is a C∗-algebra, see e.g. [Murphy 1990] [7] for an introduction; we call H ∗ ∗ it a Serre C -algebra of VC and denote by . Let be the C -algebra of AV K all compact operators on . We shall write τ : R to denote H AV ⊗K → the canonical normalized trace on , i.e. a positive linear functional AV ⊗K of norm 1 such that τ(yx) = τ(xy) for all x, y V , see [Blackadar 1986, p. 31] [2]. Because is a crossed product∈ AC∗-algebra⊗K of the form AV V ∼= C(VC) ⋊ Z, one can use the Pimsner-Voiculescu six term exact se- quenceA for the crossed products, see e.g. [Blackadar 1986, p. 83] [2] for the details. Thus one gets the short exact sequence of the algebraic K-groups: i∗ 0 K0(C(VC)) K0( V ) K1(C(VC)) 0, where map i∗ is induced by → → A → → 0 the natural embedding of C(VC) into V . We have K0(C(VC)) = K (VC) and −1 0 A −1 ∼ K1(C(VC)) ∼= K (VC), where K and K are the topological K-groups of VC, see [Blackadar 1986, p. 80] [2]. By the Chern character formula, one gets 0 even −1 odd even K (VC) Q = H (VC; Q) and K (VC) Q = H (VC; Q), where H odd ⊗ ∼ ⊗ ∼ (H ) is the direct sum of even (odd, resp.) cohomology groups of VC.

i i i that ωHtr(V ) Htr(V ); thus the ring End (Htr(V )) of all endomorphisms of i ⊆ i Htr(V ) is commutative. The End (Htr(V )) is a commutative subring of the i i ring End (H (VC)) of all endomorphisms of the cohomology group H (VC). Moreover, each regular map f : V V corresponds to an algebraic map → i fC : VC VC and, therefore, to an endomorphism ω End (Htr(V )). On → i ∈ i the other hand, it is easy to see that End (Htr(V )) = Z or End (Htr(V )) Q i ∼ i ⊗ is an algebraic number field. In the latter case Htr(V ) End (Htr(V )) Q, see [Manin 2004, Lemma 1.1.1] [6] for the case of quadratic⊂ fields. We s⊗hall write tr (ω) to denote the trace of an algebraic number ω End (Hi (V )). ∈ tr Our main results are as follows.

Theorem 1 The cardinality of variety V (Fq) is given by the formula:

2n−1 V (F ) =1+ qn + ( 1)i tr (ω ), (1) | q | − i Xi=1 where ω End (Hi (V )) is generated by the Frobenius map of V (F ). i ∈ tr q |V (F r )| ∞ q r F Theorem 2 The zeta function ZV (t) := exp r=1 r t of V ( q) has the following properties: P  P1(t)...P2n−1(t) (i) ZV (t)= is a ; P0(t)...P2n(t) χ(VC) 1 n χ(VC) (ii) Z (t) satisfies the functional equation Z = q 2 t Z (t), V V qnt ± V where χ(VC) is the Euler-Poincar´echaracteristic of VC; i (iii) deg Pi(t) = dim H (VC). Remark 1 Roughly speaking, theorem 2 says that the standard properties of the trace cohomology imply all Weil’s conjectures, except for an analog of i the αij = q 2 for the roots αij of polynomials Pi(t), see [Weil 1949, p. 507] [15]; the| | latter property is proved in [10].

3 The article is organized as follows. Section 2 contains some useful definitions and notation. Theorems 1 and 2 are proved in Section 3. We calculate the trace cohomology for the algebraic (and elliptic, in particular) curves in Section 4.

2 Preliminaries

In this section we briefly review the twisted homogeneous coordinate rings and the Serre C∗-algebras associated to projective varieties, see [Artin & van den Bergh 1990] [1]) and [Stafford & van den Bergh 2001] [14] for a de- tailed account. The C∗-algebras and their K-theory are covered in [Murphy 1990] [7] and [Blackadar 1986] [2], respectively. The Serre C∗-algebras were introduced in [9].

2.1 Twisted homogeneous coordinate rings Let V be a projective over a field k, and let be the invertible sheaf (1) of linear forms on V . Recall, that the homogeneousL coordinate ring OV of V is a graded k-algebra, which is isomorphic to the algebra

B(V, )= H0(V, ⊗n). (2) L L nM≥0 Denote by Coh the category of quasi-coherent sheaves on a scheme V and by Mod the category of graded left modules over a graded ring B. If M = M ⊕ n and Mn = 0 for n >> 0, then the graded module M is called right bounded. The direct limit M = lim Mα is called a torsion, if each Mα is a right bounded graded module. Denote by Tors the full subcategory of Mod of the torsion modules. The following result is basic about the graded ring B = B(V, ). L Lemma 1 ([Serre 1955] [11]) Mod (B) / Tors ∼= Coh (V ). Let σ be an automorphism of V . The pullback of sheaf along σ will be denoted by σ, i.e. σ(U) := (σU) for every U V . TheL graded k-algebra L L L ⊂ n−1 B(V, , σ)= H0(V, σ ... σ ). (3) L L⊗L ⊗ ⊗L nM≥0 is called a twisted homogeneous coordinate ring of scheme V ; notice that such a ring is non-commutative, unless σ is the trivial automorphism. The

4 σm multiplication of sections is defined by the rule ab = a b , whenever a Bm and b B . Given a pair (V, σ) consisting of a Noetherian⊗ scheme V and∈ an ∈ n automorphism σ of V , an invertible sheaf on V is called σ-ample, if for every n− coherent sheaf on V , the cohomology groupL Hq(V, σ ... σ 1 ) vanishes for q >F 0 and n >> 0. Notice, that if σ is trivial,L⊗L ⊗ this⊗L definition⊗F is equivalent to the usual definition of ample invertible sheaf [Serre 1955] [11]. A non-commutative generalization of the Serre theorem is as follows. Lemma 2 ([Artin & van den Bergh 1990] [1]) Let σ : V V be an automorphism of a projective scheme V over k and let be a →σ-ample invertible sheaf on V . If B(V, , σ) is the ring (3), then L L Mod (B(V, , σ)) / Tors = Coh (V ). (4) L ∼

2.2 Serre C∗-algebras Let V be a projective scheme and B(V, , σ) its twisted homogeneous coor- dinate ring. Let R be a commutative gradedL ring, such that V = Spec (R). Denote by R[t, t−1; σ] the ring of skew Laurent polynomials defined by the commutation relation bσt = tb for all b R, where bσ is the image of b under automorphism σ : V V . ∈ → Lemma 3 ([Artin & van den Bergh 1990] [1]) R[t, t−1; σ] = B(V, , σ). ∼ L Let be a Hilbert space and ( ) the algebra of all bounded linear operators H B H on . For a ring of skew Laurent polynomials R[t, t−1; σ], we shall consider a homomorphismH ρ : R[t, t−1; σ] ( ). (5) −→ B H Recall that algebra ( ) is endowed with a -involution; the involution B H ∗ comes from the scalar product on the Hilbert space . We shall call rep- resentation (5) -coherent, if (i) ρ(t) and ρ(t−1) are unitaryH operators, such that ρ∗(t) = ρ(t∗−1) and (ii) for all b R it holds (ρ∗(b))σ(ρ) = ρ∗(bσ), where ∈ σ(ρ) is an automorphism of ρ(R) induced by σ. Whenever B = R[t, t−1; σ] admits a -coherent representation, ρ(B) is a -algebra; the norm-closure of ∗ ∗ ρ(B) yields a C∗-algebra, see e.g. [Murphy 1990, Section 2.1] [7]. We shall ∗ refer to such as the Serre C -algebra and denote it by V . Recall that if is a C∗-algebra and σ : G Aut ( A) is a continuous ho- A → A momorphism of the locally compact group G group, then the triple ( ,G,σ) A defines a C∗-algebra called a crossed product and denoted by ⋊ G; we refer A σ 5 the reader to [Williams 2007, pp. 47-54] [16] for the details. It is not hard to see, that is a crossed product C∗-algebra of the form = C(V ) ⋊ Z, AV AV ∼ σ where C(V ) is the C∗-algebra of all continuous complex-valued functions on V and σ is a -coherent automorphism of V . ∗ 3 Proofs

3.1 Proof of theorem 1 We shall prove a stronger result contained in the following lemma.

Lemma 4 The Lefschetz number of the Frobenius map fC : VC VC is given by the formula: → 2n−1 n i L(fC)=1 q + ( 1) tr (ω ). (6) − − i Xi=1 Proof. Recall that the Lefschetz number of a continuous map gC : VC VC → is defined as 2n i ∗ L(gC)= ( 1) tr (g ), (7) − i Xi=0 ∗ i i where gi : H (VC) H (VC) is an induced linear map of the cohomol- ∗ → ogy. Because fi is nothing but the matrix form of an endomorphism ωi i ∈ End (Htr(V )), one gets

2n i L(fC)= ( 1) tr (ω ). (8) − i Xi=0 We shall write equation (8) in the form

2n−1 i L(fC)= tr (ω )+ tr (ω )+ ( 1) tr (ω ). (9) 0 2n − i Xi=1 0 It is known, that H (VC) = Z and ω0 = 1 is the trivial endomorphism; thus 2n∼ tr (ω0) = 1. Likewise, H ∼= Z, but n ω2n = sgn [N(ω1)] q , (10)

6 where N( ) is the norm of an algebraic number. It is known, that the endo- morphism•ω End (H1 (V )) has the following matrix form 1 ∈ tr 1 A I q 2 , (11)  I 0  where A is a positive symmetric and I is the identity matrix, see ([9], Lemma 3). Thus

A I sgn [N(ω1)] = sgn det =  I 0  = sgn[ det (I2)] = sgn det (I)= 1. (12) − − − n Therefore, from (10) one obtains ω2n = q ; in other words, the Frobenius 2n − endomorphism acts on Htr (V ) = Z by multiplication on the negative integer n n ∼ q . Clearly, tr (ω2n)= q and the substitution of these data in (9) gives us− − 2n−1 n i L(fC)=1 q + ( 1) tr (ω ). (13) − − i Xi=1 Lemma 4 follows. 

Corollary 1 The total number of the index 1 fixed points of the Frobenius n − map fC is equal to q .

Proof. It is known, that

2n−1 V (F ) =1+ qn + ( 1)i tr (Fr∗), (14) | q | − i Xi=1 ∗ i i where Fri : Het(V ; Qℓ) Het(V ; Qℓ) is a linear map on the i-th ℓ-adic cohomology induced by the→ Frobenius endomorphism of V , see [Hartshorne 1977, pp. 453-457] [4]. But according to [9], it holds

tr (Fr∗)= tr (ω ), 1 i 2n 1. (15) i i ≤ ≤ −

Since F ix (fC) = V (F ) , one concludes from lemma 4 that the algebraic | | | q | count L(fC) of the fixed points of fC differs from its geometric count F ix (fC) by exactly qn points of the index 1. Corollary 1 is proved.  | | − Theorem 1 follows formally from the equations (14) and (15). 

7 3.2 Proof of theorem 2 For the sake of clarity, let us outline the main idea. Since the trace cohomol- ogy accounts for the fixed points of the Frobenius map fC algebraically (see corollary 1), we shall deal with the corresponding Lefschetz zeta function

∞ r L L(fC) r ZV (t) := exp t (16) r r ! X=1 L and prove items (i)-(iii) for the ZV (t). Because fC : VC VC is the Anosov- L → type map, one can use Smale’s formulas linking ZV (t) and ZV (t), see [Smale 1967, Proposition 4.14] [13]; it will follow that items (i)-(iii) are true for the function ZV (t) as well. We shall pass to a detailed argument; the following general lemma will be helpful.

Lemma 5 If f : V V is a regular map, then all eigenvalues λij of the → i corresponding endomorphisms ωi End (Htr(V )) of the trace cohomology are real algebraic numbers. ∈

i Proof. Since the endomorphisms of Htr(V ) commute with each other, there i exists a basis of Htr(V ), such that each endomorphism is given in this basis by a symmetric integer matrix [9]. But the spectrum of a real symmetric matrix is known to be totally real and the eigenvalues of an integer matrix are algebraic numbers. Lemma 5 follows. 

L (i) Let us prove rationality of the function ZV (t) given by formula (16). Using lemma 4, one gets

r log ZL(t) = ∞ 1+( qn)r + 2n−1( 1)itr (ωr) t = V r=1 − i=1 − i r ∞ r h i t P∞ (−qnt)r ∞ P 2n−1 i r tr = + r=1 r + r=1 i=1 ( 1) tr (ωi ) r . (17) r=1 r − X P P P  ∞ tr Taking into account the well-known summation formulas r=1 r = log(1 n r − − t) and ∞ (−q t) = log(1 + qnt), one can bring equation (17) to the form r=1 r − P P 2n−1 ∞ r L n i r t log ZV (t)= log(1 t)(1 + q t)+ ( 1) tr (ωi ) . (18) − − − r r Xi=1 X=1 On the other hand, it easy to see that

r r r tr (ωi )= λ1 + ... + λbi , (19)

8 where λ are the eigenvalues of the Frobenius endomorphism ω End (Hi (V )) j i ∈ tr and bi is the i-th of VC. Thus one can bring (18) to the form

L n log ZV (t) = log(1 t)(1 + q t)+ 2n−1 − − r r i ∞ (λ1t) (λbi t) + ( 1) r=1 r + ... + r . (20) i=1 − X P h i r Using the summation formula ∞ (λj t) = log(1 λ t), one gets from (20) r=1 r − − j L P n log ZV (t) = log(1 t)(1 + q t)+ 2n−1 − − ( 1)i+1 log [(1 λ t) ... (1 λ t)] . (21) − − 1 − bi Xi=1 Notice that the product (1 λ t) ... (1 λ t) is nothing but the characteristic − 1 − bi polynomial Pi(t) of the Frobenius endomorphism on the trace cohomology i Htr(V ); thus one can write (21) in the form P (t) ...P (t) log ZL(t) = log 1 2n−1 . (22) V (1 t)P (t) ...P (t)(1 + qnt) − 2 2n−2 Taking exponents in the last equation, one obtains

L P1(t) ...P2n−1(t) ZV (t)= , (23) P0(t) ...P2n(t) where P (t)=1 t and P (t)=1+ qnt. Thus ZL(t) is a rational function. 0 − 2n V To prove rationality of Z (t), recall that a map fC : VC VC is called V → Anosov-type, if there exist a (possibly singular) pair of orthogonal foliations and of VC preserved by fC. (Note that our definition is more gen- Fu Fs eral than the standard and includes all continuous maps fC.) Consider 1 the trace cohomology Htr(V ) endowed with the Frobenius endomorphism 1 ω End (H (V )). Let be a foliation of VC, whose holonomy (Plante) 1 ∈ tr Fs group is isomorphic to H1 (V ). Because ω H1 (V ) H1 (V ), one concludes tr 1 tr ⊂ tr that is an invariant stable foliation of the map fC. The unstable folia- Fs tion can be constructed likewise. Thus fC is the Anosov-type map of the Fu manifold VC. One can apply now (an extension of) [Smale 1967, Proposition

9 4.14] [13], which says that one of the following formulas must hold:

1 ZV (t) = L , ZV (t)   L  ZV (t) = ZV ( t), (24)  −  1 ZV (t) = L .  ZV (−t)   L  Since ZV (t) is known to be a rational function (23), it follows from Smale’s formulas (24) that ZV (t) is rational as well. Item (i) is proved.

∗ (ii) Recall that the cohomology H (VC) satisfies the Poincar´edulality; the duality can be given by a pairing

i 2n−i 2n H (VC) H (VC) H (VC) (25) × −→ ∗ obtained from the cup-product on H (VC). Let f : V V be the Frobenius endomorphism and fC : VC VC the → 2n→∗ corresponding algebraic map of VC and consider the action (fC ) on the 2n 2n ∗ pairing , given by (25). Since H (VC) = Z and the linear map (fC ) h• •i2n n ∼ multiplies H (VC) by the constant q , one gets

(f i )∗x, (f 2n−i)∗y = qn x, y , (26) h C C i h i i 2n−i for all x H (VC) and all y H (VC). Recall the linear algebra identities, ∈ ∈ given e.g. in [Hartshorne 1977, Lemma 4.3, p. 456] [4]; then (26) implies the following formulas

i ∗ (−1)bi (qn)bi tbi 1 2n−i ∗ det (I (fC) t) = 2n−i ∗ det I n (fC ) det (fC ) q t − n b − (27)  i ∗ (q ) i h i  det (fC) = 2n−i ∗ ,  det (fC )

 i i ∗ where b = dim H (VC) are the i-th Betti numbers. But det (I (f ) t) := i − C P (t) and det I 1 (f 2n−i)∗ := P 1 ; therefore, the first equation i − qnt C 2n−i qnt of (27) yields theh identity i  

( 1)bi (qn)bi 1 P (t)= tbi P . (28) i − 2n−i ∗ 2n−i n det (fC ) q t!

10 L 1 Let us calculate ZV qnt using (28); one gets the following expression   1 1 1 P1( n )...P2n−1( n ) ZL = q t q t = V n P 1 ...P 1 q t! 0( qnt ) 2n( qnt ) P (t) ...P (t) 0 ∗ 2n ∗ 1 2n−1 (b0−b1+...) (b0−b1+...) det (fC ) ... det (fC ) = t ( 1) ∗ 2n−1 ∗ . (29) det (f 1) ... det (f ) P0(t) ...P2n(t) − C C

Note that b0 b1+... = χ(VC) is the Euler-Poincar´echaracteristic of VC. From − i ∗ 2n−i ∗ the second equation of (27) one obtains the identity det (fC) det (fC ) = (qn)bi . Thus (29) can be written in the form

1 n (b0+...b2n) L 1 χ(VC) χ(VC) (q ) 2 L ZV = t ( 1) 1 b ... b ZV V (t)= qnt! − (qn) 2 ( 1+ + 2n−1) 1 χ(VC) χ(VC) n χ(VC) L = t ( 1) (q ) 2 Z (t). (30) − V Taking into account ( 1)−χ(VC) = 1, one gets a functional equation for L − ± ZV (t). We encourage the reader to verify using formulas (24), that the same equation holds for the function ZV (t). Item (ii) of theorem 2 is proved.

(iii) To prove the Betti numbers , notice that equality (19) im- i i i plies that deg Pi(t) = dim Htr(V ). But dim Htr(V ) = dim H (VC) by the i definition of trace cohomoogy; thus deg Pi(t) = dim H (VC) for the polyno- mials Pi(t) in formula (23). Again, the reader can verify using (24), that the same relationship holds for the polynomials representing the rational function ZV (t). Item (iii) is proved.

This argument completes the proof of theorem 2 

4 Examples

i The groups Htr(V ) are truly concrete and simple; in this section we calculate the trace cohomology for n = 1, i.e. when V is a smooth algebraic curve. In particular, we find the cardinality of the set (F ) obtained by the reduction E q modulo q of an with complex multiplication. The reader can verify, that the lifting condition for V is satisfied, see footnote 1.

11 Example 1 The trace cohomology of smooth algebraic curve (Fq) of genus g 1 is given by the formulas: C ≥ H0 ( ) = Z, tr C ∼   1  Htr( ) = Z + Zθ1 + ... + Zθ2g−1, (31)  C ∼  H2 ( ) = Z,  tr ∼  C  where θ R are algebraically independent integers of a number field of i ∈ degree 2g.

Proof. It is known that the Serre C∗-algebra of the (generic) complex alge- braic curve is isomorphic to a toric AF -algebra Aθ, see [8] for the notation and details.C Moreover, up to a scaling constant µ> 0, it holds

Z + Zθ if g =1 τ (K (A )) = 1 (32) ∗ 0 θ Z + Zθ + ... + Zθ if g > 1, ⊗K  1 6g−7 where constants θ R parametrize the moduli (Teichm¨uller) space of curve i ∈ , ibid. If is defined over a number field k, then each θi is algebraic and Ctheir totalC number is equal to 2g 1. (Indeed, since Gal (k¯ k) acts on the torsion points of (k), it is easy to− see that the endomorphism| ring of (k) C C is non-trivial. Because such a ring is isomorphic to the endomorphism ring of jacobian Jac and dimC Jac = g, one concludes that End (k) is a C C C Z-module of rank 2g and each θi is an algebraic number.) After scaling by a constant µ> 0, one gets

H1 ( ) := τ (K (A )) = Z + Zθ + ... + Zθ (33) tr C ∗ 0 θ ⊗K 1 2g−1 Because H0( ) = H2( ) = Z, one obtains the rest of formulas (31).  C ∼ C ∼ Remark 2 Using theorem 1, one gets the formula

2g (F ) =1+ q tr (ω)=1+ q λ , (34) |C q | − − i Xi=1 where λ are real eigenvalues of the Frobenius endomorphism ω End (H1 ( )). i ∈ tr C Note that λ1 + ... + λ2g = α1 + ... + α2g, (35)

12 1 where αi are the eigenvalues of the Frobenius endomorphism of Het( ; Qℓ). However, there is no trace cohomology analog of the classical formulaC

2g r r (F r ) =1+ q α , (36) |C q | − i Xi=1 unless r = 1; this difference is due to an algebraic count of the fixed points by the trace cohomology.

Example 2 The case g = 1 is particularly instructive; for the sake of clarity, we shall consider elliptic curves having complex multiplication. Let (Fq) be the reduction modulo q of an elliptic with complex multiplication byE the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field Q(√ d), see e.g. [Silverman 1994, − Chapter 2] [12]. It is known, that in this case the trace cohomology formulas (31) take the form

H0 ( (F )) = Z, tr E q ∼   1  Htr( (Fq)) = Z + Z√d, (37)  E ∼  H2 ( (F )) = Z.  tr q ∼  E  We shall denote by ψ(P) Q(√ d) the Gr¨ossencharacter of the prime ideal ∈ − P over p, see [Silverman 1994, p. 174] [12]. It is easy to see, that in this case the Frobenius endomorphism ω End (H1 ( (F ))) is given by the formula ∈ tr E q 1 1 2 ω = ψ(P)+ ψ(P) + ψ(P)+ ψ(P) +4q (38) 2 2r h i   and the corresponding eigenvalues

2 1 1 λ1 = ω = 2 ψ(P)+ ψ(P) + 2 ψ(P)+ ψ(P) +4q,  r (39) h i  2  1 P P 1 P P  λ2 =ω ¯ = 2 ψ( )+ ψ( ) 2 ψ( )+ ψ( ) +4q. − r  h i   Using formula (34), one gets the following equation

(F ) =1 (λ + λ )+ q =1 ψ(P) ψ(P)+ q, (40) |E q | − 1 2 − − which coincides with the well-known expression for (Fq) in terms of the Gr¨ossencharacter, see e.g. [Silverman 1994, p. 175] [12].|E |
