Order of Zeros of Dedekind Zeta Functions

Number Theory 2024-12-30 v2

Abstract

Answering a question of Browkin, we provide a new unconditional proof that the Dedekind zeta function of a number field LL has infinitely many nontrivial zeros of multiplicity at least 2 if LL has a subfield KK for which L/KL/K is a nonabelian Galois extension. We also extend this to zeros of order 3 when Gal(L/K)\operatorname{Gal}(L/K) has an irreducible representation of degree at least 3, as predicted by the Artin holomorphy conjecture.
