The local normal zeta functions of a finitely generated, torsion-free nilpotent group $G$ of class 2 depend on the geometry of the Pfaffian hypersurface associated to the bilinear form induced by taking commutators in $G$. The smallest…

We give explicit formulae for the local normal zeta functions of torsion-free, class-2-nilpotent groups, subject to conditions on the associated Pfaffian hypersurface which are generically satisfied by groups with small centre and…

Let $F_{2,d}$ denote the free class-2-nilpotent group on $d$ generators. We compute the normal zeta functions $\zeta^\triangleleft_{F_{2,d}}(s)$, prove that they satisfy local functional equations and determine their abscissae of…

We describe an effective procedure to compute the local subgroup zeta functions of the free class-$2$-nilpotent groups on $d$ generators, for all $d$. For $d=4$, this yields a new, explicit formula. For $d\in\{4,5\}$, we compute the…

We develop techniques for computing zeta functions associated with nilpotent groups, not necessarily associative algebras, and modules, as well as Igusa-type zeta functions. At the heart of our method lies an explicit convex-geometric…

We introduce a new method to calculate local normal zeta functions of finitely generated, torsion-free nilpotent groups. It is based on an enumeration of vertices in the Bruhat-Tits building for Sl_n(Q_p). It enables us to give explicit…

The purpose of this article is to give an explicit description, in terms of hypergeometric functions over finite fields, of zeta function of a certain type of smooth hypersurfaces that generalizes Dwork family. The point here is that we…

We give a sufficient criterion for generic local functional equations for submodule zeta functions associated to nilpotent algebras of endomorphisms defined over number fields. This allows us, in particular, to prove various conjectures on…

Building on our previous work (arXiv:1405.5711), we develop the first practical algorithm for computing topological zeta functions of nilpotent groups, non-associative algebras, and modules. While we previously depended upon non-degeneracy…

By means of zeta and normal zeta functions of space groups, we determine the number of subgroups, resp. normal subgroups, of the tenth crystallographic group for any given index. This enables us to draw conclusions on the subgroup growth…

We develop a practical method for computing local zeta functions of groups, algebras, and modules in fortunate cases. Using our method, we obtain a complete classification of generic local representation zeta functions associated with…

It is known that Shintani zeta functions, which generalise multiple zeta functions, extend to meromorphic functions with poles on affine hyperplanes. We refine this result in showing that the poles lie on hyperplanes parallel to the facets…

It is known from work of du Sautoy and Grunewald in \cite{duSG1} that the zeta functions counting subgroups of finite index in infinite nilpotent groups depend upon the behaviour of some associated system of algebraic varieties on reduction…

We prove that the subgroup zeta function and the normal zeta function of a finitely generated virtually nilpotent group are finite sums of Euler products of cone integrals over $\mathbb{Q}$ and we deduce from this that they have rational…

We study representation zeta functions of finitely generated, torsion-free nilpotent groups which are rational points of unipotent group schemes over rings of integers of number fields. Using the Kirillov orbit method and p-adic…

We calculate zeta and normal zeta functions of space groups with the point group isomorphic to the cyclic group of order 2. The obtained results are applied to determine the number of subgroups, resp. normal subgroups, of a given index for…

Inspired by work surrounding Igusa's local zeta function, we introduce topological representation zeta functions of unipotent algebraic groups over number fields. These group-theoretic invariants capture common features of established…

Let $N$ be a finitely generated nilpotent group. The subgroup zeta function $\zeta_N^{\leq}(s)$ and the normal zeta function $\zeta_N^\lhd(s)$ of $N$ are Dirichlet series enumerating the finite index subgroups or the finite index normal…

We introduce a new method to compute explicit formulae for various zeta functions associated to groups and rings. The specific form of these formulae enables us to deduce local functional equations. More precisely, we prove local functional…
