Probability Laws Concerning Zeta Integrals

Number Theory 2024-11-14 v1 Probability

Abstract

We give a probabilistic interpretation of the Dedekind zeta functions of Q(1)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-1}) and Q(2)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-2}) using zeta integrals and use this to show that the first two Li coefficients of these zeta functions are positive. This extends a result of Biane, Pitman, and Yor (2001) which considered the case of the Riemann zeta function.
