Abstract

In this article, we ask whether the Igusa zeta function of a restricted power series over Qp\mathbb{Q}_p can be determined solely from the terms of degree at most DD. That is, we ask whether the truncated polynomial fDf_D, consisting of all terms of f of degree D\leq D, yields the same Igusa zeta function as ff for sufficiently large DD. Our main results include a counterexample already in the one-variable case, but also a positive result under the condition that ff is sufficiently non-degenerate with respect to its Newton polyhedron Γ(f)\Gamma(f).
