To these are added a number of works-in-progress or partial notes (some with results we did not need or use and so took out of earlier drafts of our papers, some with worked-out examples or remarks, etc). We have a relatively firm project of writing a monograph account of the whole theory and applications, which we view in part as a way of making accessible some of the deep consequences of the Riemann Hypothesis over finite fields of Deligne, but this is clearly a long-term project.  In the meantime, we have written a first short survey, the first draft of which <a href=\"http:\/\/www.math.ethz.ch\/~kowalski\/trace-functions-pisa.pdf\">can be found on my web page<\/a>.
