Abstract: We compute the variances of sums in arithmetic progressions of generalised k-divisor functions related to certain L-functions in $mathbb{F}_q(t)$, in the limit as $qoinfty$. This is achieved by making use of recently established equidistribution results for the associated Frobenius conjugacy classes. The variances are thus expressed, when $qoinfty$, in terms of matrix integrals, which may be evaluated. Our results extend those obtained previously in the special case corresponding to the usual $k$-divisor function, when the L-function in question has degree one. They illustrate the role played by the degree of the L-functions; in particular, we find qualitatively new behaviour when the degree exceeds one. Our calculations apply, for example, to elliptic curves defined over $mathbb{F}_q(t)$, and we illustrate them by examining in some detail the generalised $k$-divisor functions associated with the Legendre curve.
