Scaling group flow and Lefschetz trace formula for laminated spaces with $p-$adic transversal
Abstract
In his approach to analytic number theory C. Deninger has suggested that to the Riemann zeta function (resp. the zeta function of a smooth projective curve over a finite field , )) one could possibly associate a foliated Riemannian laminated space (resp. ) endowed with an action of a flow whose primitive compact orbits should correspond to the primes of (resp. ). The existence of such a foliated space and flow is still unknown except when is an elliptic curve (see Deninger). Being motivated by this latter case, we introduce a class of foliated laminated spaces where is locally , being an open disk of Assuming that the leafwise harmonic forms on are locally constant transversally, we prove a Lefschetz trace formula for the flow acting on the leafwise Hodge cohomology () of that is very similar to the explicit formula for the zeta function of a (general) smooth curve over . We also prove that the eigenvalues of the infinitesimal generator of the action of on have real part equal to Moreover, we suggest in a precise way that the flow should be induced by a renormalization group flow "\`a la K. Wilson". We show that when is an elliptic curve over this is indeed the case.
