Abstract

Let $u$ be a nowhere vanishing holomorphic function on the Drinfeld space $Ω^{r}$ of dimension $r - 1$ , where $r \geq 2$ . The logarithm ${log}_{q} | u |$ of its absolute value may be regarded as an affine function on the attached Bruhat–Tits building ${ℬ 𝒯}^{r}$ . Generalizing a construction of van der Put in case $r = 2$ , we relate the group $𝒪 {(Ω^{r})}^{*}$ of such $u$ with the group $H ({ℬ 𝒯}^{r}, ℤ)$ of integer-valued harmonic 1-cochains on ${ℬ 𝒯}^{r}$ . This also gives rise to a natural $ℤ$ -structure on the first ( $ℓ$ -adic or de Rham) cohomology of $Ω^{r}$ .
