The theory of Ihara zeta functions is extended to non-compact arithmetic quotients of Bruhat-Tits trees. This new zeta function turns out to be a rational function, despite the infinite-dimensional setting. In general it has zeros and…

We introduce a zeta function counting imaginary quadratic number fields by their class numbers. It is proved that such a function is rational depending only on the eight roots of unity of degrees $1$ and $2$. As a corollary, one gets a…

The analogue of the Bruhat-Tits building of a p-adic group in F1-geometry is a single apartment. In this setting, the trace formula gives rise to a several variable zeta function analogously to the p-adic case. The analogy carries on to the…

A prime geodesic theorem for singular geodesics in a locally symmetric space is proved. As an application, an asymptotic formula for units in number fields is given.

We prove a prime geodesic theorem for compact quotients of affine buildings and apply it to get class number asymptotics for global fields of positive characteristic.

Let X be a projective scheme over a finite field. In this paper, we consider the asymptotic behavior of the number of effective cycles on X with bounded degree as it goes to the infinity. By this estimate, we can define a certain kind of…

The higher rank Lefschetz formula for p-adic groups is used to prove rationality of a several-variable zeta function attached to the action of a p-adic group on its Bruhat-Tits building. By specializing to certain lines one gets…

This article is the first in a series devoted to computing the class groups of real quadratic fields. We present a new relation between the class number and the index of unit groups. This relation generalizes Hilbert class field theory for…

Let G be a semisimple quasi-split group defined over a global function field. We express the relative Tamagawa number of G in terms of local data including the number of types of special vertices in one orbit of the Bruhat-Tits building…

We prove an approximation to an Ihara-formula for the zeta function of an arithmetic quotient of the Bruhat-Tits building of a p-adic PGL(3).

We obtain divisibility conditions on the multiplicative orders of elements of the form $\zeta + \zeta^{-1}$ in a finite field by exploiting a link to the arithmetic of real quadratic fields.

In this paper, we define edge zeta functions for spherical buildings associated with finite general linear groups. We derive elegant formulas for these zeta functions and reveal patterns of eigenvalues of these buildings, by introducing and…

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 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…

Here we initiate a program to study relationships between finite groups and arithmetic-geometric invariants in a systematic way. To do this we first introduce a notion of optimal module for a finite group in the setting of holomorphic mock…

We introduce the zeta function of the prehomogenous vector space of binary cubic forms, twisted by the real analytic Eisenstein series. We prove the meromorphic continuation of this zeta function and identify its poles and their residues.…

The theory of Ihara zeta functions is extended to infinite graphs which are weighted and of finite total weight. In this case one gets meromorphic instead of rational functions and the classical determinant formulas of Bass and Ihara hold…

A prime geodesic theorem is proven for singular geodesics in quotients of SL(4). This is a case where regularity assumptions of previous papers fail. As a consequence, the analysis becomes much more involved. For applications in number…

The investigation of the ideal class group $Cl_K$ of an algebraic number field $K$ is one of the key subjects of inquiry in algebraic number theory since it encodes a lot of arithmetic information about K. There is a considerable amount of…

A class number formula is proved for extended ring class fields $L_{\mathcal{O},9}$ over imaginary quadratic fields $K_d = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$, in which the prime $p = 3$ splits, by determining the fields generated by the periodic points…
