Abstract

We define a Weil-\'etale complex with compact support for duals (in the sense of the Bloch dualizing cycles complex Zc\mathbb{Z}^c) of a large class of Z\mathbb{Z}-constructible sheaves on an integral 11-dimensional proper arithmetic scheme flat over Spec(Z)\mathrm{Spec}(\mathbb{Z}). This complex can be thought of as computing Weil-\'etale homology. For those Z\mathbb{Z}-constructible sheaves that are moreover tamely ramified, we define an "additive" complex which we think of as the Lie algebra of the dual of the Z\mathbb{Z}-constructible sheaf. The product of the determinants of the additive and Weil-\'etale complex is called the fundamental line. We prove a duality theorem which implies that the fundamental line has a natural trivialization, giving a multiplicative Euler characteristic. We attach a natural LL-function to the dual of a Z\mathbb{Z}-constructible sheaf; up to a finite number of factors, this LL-function is an Artin LL-function at s+1s+1. Our main theorem contains a vanishing order formula at s=0s=0 for the LL-function and states that, in the tamely ramified case, the special value at s=0s=0 is given up to sign by the Euler characteristic. This generalizes the analytic class number formula for the special value at s=1s=1 of the Dedekind zeta function. In the function field case, this a theorem of arXiv:2009.14504.
