We generalise Dworks theory of $p$-adic formal congruences from the univariate to a multi-variate setting. We apply our results to prove integrality assertions on the Taylor coefficients of (multi-variable) mirror maps. More precisely, with $mathbf z=(z_1,z_2,...,z_d)$, we show that the Taylor coefficients of the multi-variable series $q(mathbf z)=z_iexp(G(mathbf z)/F(mathbf z))$ are integers, where $F(mathbf z)$ and $G(mathbf z)+log(z_i) F(mathbf z)$, $i=1,2,...,d$, are specific solutions of certain GKZ systems. This result implies the integrality of the Taylor coefficients of numerous families of multi-variable mirror maps of Calabi-Yau complete intersections in weighted projective spaces, as well as of many one-variable mirror maps in the Tables of Calabi-Yau equations [arXiv:math/0507430] of Almkvist, van Enckevort, van Straten and Zudilin. In particular, our results prove a conjecture of Batyrev and van Straten in [Comm. Math. Phys. 168 (1995), 493-533] on the integrality of the Taylor coefficients of canonical coordinates for a large family of such coordinates in several variables.

We show that the Taylor coefficients of the series ${bf q}(z)=zexp({bf G}(z)/{bf F}(z))$ are integers, where ${bf F}(z)$ and ${bf G}(z)+log(z) {bf F}(z)$ are specific solutions of certain hypergeometric differential equations with maximal unipotent monodromy at $z=0$. We also address the question of finding the largest integer $u$ such that the Taylor coefficients of $(z ^{-1}{bf q}(z))^{1/u}$ are still integers. As consequences, we are able to prove numerous integrality results for the Taylor coefficients of mirror maps of Calabi-Yau complete intersections in weighted projective spaces, which improve and refine previous results by Lian and Yau, and by Zudilin. In particular, we prove the general ``integrality conjecture of Zudilin about these mirror maps. A further outcome of the present study is the determination of the Dwork-Kontsevich sequence $(u_N)_{Nge1}$, where $u_N$ is the largest integer such that $q(z)^{1/u_N}$ is a series with integer coefficients, where $q(z)=exp(F(z)/G(z))$, $F(z)=sum_{m=0} ^{infty} (Nm)! z^m/m!^N$ and $G(z)=sum_{m=1} ^{infty} (H_{Nm}-H_m)(Nm)! z^m/m!^N$, with $H_n$ denoting the $n$-th harmonic number, conditional on the conjecture that there are no prime number $p$ and integer $N$ such that the $p$-adic valuation of $H_N-1$ is strictly greater than 3.
We prove general Dwork-type congruences for Hasse--Witt matrices attached to tuples of Laurent polynomials. We apply this result to establishing arithmetic and $p$-adic analytic properties of functions originating from polynomial solutions modulo $p^s$ of Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov (KZ) equations, solutions which come as coefficients of master polynomials and whose coefficients are integers. As an application we show that the $p$-adic KZ connection associated with the family of hyperelliptic curves $y^2=(t-z_1)dots (t-z_{2g+1})$ has an invariant subbundle of rank $g$. Notice that the corresponding complex KZ connection has no nontrivial subbundles due to the irreducibility of its monodromy representation.
We prove general Dwork-type congruences for constant terms attached to tuples of Laurent polynomials. We apply this result to establishing arithmetic and $p$-adic analytic properties of functions originating from polynomial solutions modulo $p^s$ of hypergeometric and KZ equations, solutions which come as coefficients of master polynomials and whose coefficients are integers. As an application we show that the simplest example of a $p$-adic KZ connection has an invariant line subbundle while its complex analog has no nontrivial subbundles due to the irreducibility of the monodromy group.
We propose higher-order generalizations of Jacobsthals $p$-adic approximation for binomial coefficients. Our results imply explicit formulae for linear combinations of binomial coefficients $binom{ip}{p}$ ($i=1,2,dots$) that are divisible by arbitrarily large powers of prime $p$.
The explicit formulas of operations, in particular addition and multiplication, of $p $-adic integers are presented. As applications of the results, at first the explicit formulas of operations of Witt vectors with coefficients in $mathbb{F}_{2}$ are given; then, through solving a problem of Browkin about the transformation between the coefficients of a $p$-adic integer expressed in the ordinary least residue system and the numerically least residue system, similar formulas for Witt vectors with coefficients in $mathbb{F}_{3}$ are obtained.
