We give a description of finite semigroups $S$ that are minimal for not being Malcev nilpotent, i.e. every proper subsemigroup and every proper Rees factor semigroup is Malcev nilpotent but $S$ is not. For groups this question was…
We examine "partition zeta functions" analogous to the Riemann zeta function but summed over subsets of integer partitions. We prove an explicit formula for a family of partition zeta functions already shown to have nice properties -- those…
We show that a finitely generated soluble group is virtually nilpotent if and only if the diameter of its finite coset spaces admits a uniform polynomial lower bound in terms of their size. We obtain the same conclusion for certain finitely…
We compute explicitly Dirichlet generating functions enumerating finite-dimensional irreducible complex representations of various $p$-adic analytic and adelic profinite groups of type $\mathsf{A}_2$. This has consequences for the…
We show that an arithmetic function which satisfies some weak multiplicativity properties and in addition has a non-decreasing or $\log$-uniformly continuous normal order is close to a function of the form $n\mapsto n^c$. As an application…
The aim of the present article is to reveal a structure shared by two basic zeta-functions in their fourth power moments through the view point of representation theory of Lie groups, relying specifically upon the Kirillov model. It might…
We enumerate traceless square matrices over finite quotients of compact discrete valuation rings by their image sizes. We express the associated rational generating functions in terms of statistics on symmetric and hyperoctahedral groups,…
We study absolute zeta functions from the view point of a canonical normalization. We introduce the absolute Hurwitz zeta function for the normalization. In particular, we show that the theory of multiple gamma and sine functions gives good…
In this paper, some new results are reported for the study of Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the critical strip $0<Re(s)<1$, such as $\zeta(s)$ expressed in a generalized Euler product only involving prime numbers. Particularly, some…
In this paper, we explore the properties of zeta functions associated with infinite graphs of groups that arise as quotients of cuspidal tree-lattices, including all non-uniform arithmetic quotients of the tree of rank one Lie groups over…
We show that any subgroup of a finitely generated virtually abelian group $G$ grows rationally relative to $G$, that the set of right cosets of any subgroup of $G$ grows rationally, and that the set of conjugacy classes of $G$ grows…
In the paper we consider a realization of a finite dimensional irreducible representation of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_n$ in the space of functions on the group $GL_n$. It is proved that functions corresponding to Gelfand-Tsetlin…
The volume of the unit sphere in every dimension is given a new interpretation as a product of special values of the zeta function of $\mathbb{Z}$, akin to volume formulas of Minkowski and Siegel in the theory of arithmetic groups. A…
We define Euler characteristics on classes of residually finite and virtually torsion free groups and we show that they satisfy certain formulas in the case of amalgamated free products and HNN extensions over finite subgroups. These…
Associated to classical semi-simple groups and their maximal parabolics are genuine zeta functions. Naturally related to Riemann's zeta and governed by symmetries, including that of Weyl, these zetas are expected to satisfy the Riemann…
Let $f$ be a zero-free analytic function on $\Re(s) \geq 1$. We prove that there exists an entire zero-free function $g$ and a Helson zeta-function $\zeta_\chi(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \chi(n) n^{-s}$, where $\chi(n)$ is a completely…
In the present paper we prove lemmata on strong contractibility in asymptotic cones and metric ultraproducts which we apply to both the case of finitely generated word norms and the case of conjugation invariant norms. We recover…
We prove the pro-supersolvable closure of a finitely generated subgroup of the free group is finitely generated. It extends similar results for pro-$p$ closures proved by Ribes-Zalesskii and pro-Nilpotent closures proved by…
We associate with an infinite cyclic cover of a punctured neighborhood of a simple normal crossing divisor on a complex quasi-projective manifold (assuming certain finiteness conditions are satisfied) a rational function in $K_0({\rm…
To a finitely generated profinite group $G$, a formal Dirichlet series $P_G(s)=\sum_{n \in \mathbb N} {a_n(G)}/{n^s}$ is associated, where $a_n(G)=\sum_{|G:H|=n}\mu(H, G)$ and $\mu(H,G)$ denotes the M\"obius function of the lattice of open…
