Documenta Mathematica Extra Volume Coates: 729-779.1431-0643http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:3637095We prove that the L-function of any regular (distinct Hodge numbers), irreducible, rank two motive over the rational numbers has meromorphic continuation to the whole complex plane and satisfies the expected functional equation.en-USGalois representationmodularityL-functionmeromorphic continuationJournal Article
