q-deformations of statistical mechanical systems and motives over finite fields

Abstract

We consider q-deformations of Witt rings, based on geometric operations on zeta functions of motives over finite fields, and we use these deformations to construct q-analogs of the Bost-Connes quantum statistical mechanical system. We show that the q-deformations obtained in this way can be related to Habiro ring constructions of analytic functions over F_1 and to categorifications of Bost-Connes systems.
