A new method is devised for calculating the Igusa local zeta function $Z_f$ of a polynomial $f(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ over a $p$-adic field. This involves a new kind of generating function $G_f$ that is the projective limit of a family of…
We discuss a notion of integration with respect to the Euler characteristic in the projectivization $\P{\cal O}_{\C^n,0}$ of the ring ${\cal O}_{\C^n,0}$ of germs of functions on $C^n$ and show that the Alexander polynomial and the…
This work develops an analytic framework for the study of the $\zeta$-function associated with general sequences of complex numbers. We show that a contour integral representation, commonly used when studying spectral $\zeta$-functions…
This paper continues a series of investigations on converging representations for the Riemann Zeta function. We generalize some identities which involve Riemann's zeta function, and moreover we give new series and integrals for the zeta…
We present an elementary elaboration of Dwork's idea of explicit $p$-adic limit formulas for zeta functions of toric hypersurfaces.
A relation between the Goldstein-Petrich hierarchy for plane curves and the Toda lattice hierarchy is investigated. A representation formula for plane curves is given in terms of a special class of $\tau$-functions of the Toda lattice…
These notes give a basic introduction to the theory of $p$-adic and motivic zeta functions, motivic integration, and the monodromy conjecture.
We study motivic zeta functions for $\mathds{Q}$-divisors in a $\mathds{Q}$-Gorenstein variety. By using a toric partial resolution of singularities we reduce this study to the local case of two normal crossing divisors where the ambient…
This paper describes a class of Artin-Schreier curves, generalizing results of Van der Geer and Van der Vlugt to odd characteristic. The automorphism group of these curves contains a large extraspecial group as a subgroup. Precise knowledge…
We compute Bernstein-Sato polynomials of some pairs of topologically equivalent plane curve singularities. Some pairs have the same Tjurina number but distinct Bernstein-Sato polynomials, which implies that they are not analytically…
This is an extended version of the first part of a forthcoming paper where we will study the local Zeta functions of the minimal spherical series for the symmetric spaces arising as open orbits of the parabolic prehomogeneous spaces of…
We define a birational analog of the motivic zeta function of a reduced polynomial in terms of minimal models. It admits an intrinsic meaning in terms of contact loci of arcs, an analog of a result of Denef and Loeser in the motivic case.…
We study the Ruelle zeta function at zero for negatively curved oriented surfaces with boundary. At zero, the zeta function has a zero and its multiplicity is shown to be determined by the Euler characteristic of the surface. This is shown…
Let C/Q be a curve of genus three, given as a double cover of a plane conic. Such a curve is hyperelliptic over the algebraic closure of Q, but may not have a hyperelliptic model of the usual form over Q. We describe an algorithm that…
We assign an arbitrary density matrix to a weighted graph and associate to it a graph zeta function that is both a generalization of the Ihara zeta function and a special case of the edge zeta function. We show that a recently developed…
Let $p$ and $q$ be distinct prime numbers, with $q\equiv 1\pmod{12}$. Let $N$ be a positive integer that is coprime to $pq$. We prove a formula relating the Hasse--Weil zeta function of the modular curve $X_0(qN)_{\mathbb{F}_q}$ to the…
We give a local expression for the {\it scalar curvature} of the noncommutative two torus $ A_{\theta} = C(\mathbb{T}_{\theta}^2)$ equipped with an arbitrary translation invariant complex structure and Weyl factor. This is achieved by…
We determine what isogeny classes of supersingular abelian surfaces over a finite field k of characteristic 2 contain jacobians. We deal with this problem in a direct way by computing explicitly the zeta function of all supersingular curves…
We generalize the notion of the auto-Igusa zeta function to formal deformations of algebraic spaces. By incorporating data from all algebraic transformations of local coordinates, this function can be viewed as a generalization of the…
A theta surface in affine 3-space is the zero set of a Riemann theta function in genus 3. This includes surfaces arising from special plane quartics that are singular or reducible. Lie and Poincar\'e showed that theta surfaces are precisely…
