Series of extended Epstein type provide examples of non-trivial zeta functions with important physical applications. The regular part of their analytic continuation is seen to be a convergent or an asymptotic series. Their singularity…
The special uniformity of zeta functions claims that pure non-abelian zeta functions coincide with group zeta functions associated to the special linear groups. Naturally associated are three aspects, namely, the analytic, arithmetic, and…

The study of Finite Size Effects in Quantum Field Theory allows the extraction of precious perturbative and non-perturbative information. The use of scaling functions can connect the particle content (scattering theory formulation) of a QFT…

The Ihara expression of a weighted zeta function for a general finite digraph is given. It unifies all the Ihara expressions obtained for known zeta functions for finite digraphs. Any digraph in this paper permits multi-edges and…
We construct spectral zeta functions for the Dirac operator on metric graphs. We start with the case of a rose graph, a graph with a single vertex where every edge is a loop. The technique is then developed to cover any finite graph with…
In this paper we study spectral zeta functions associated to finite and infinite graphs. First we establish a meromorphic continuation of these functions under some general conditions. Then we study special values in the case of standard…
We apply the recently developed method of differential renormalization to the Wess-Zumino model. From the explicit calculation of a finite, renormalized effective action, the $\beta$-function is computed to three loops and is found to agree…
In this paper we study the spectral asymmetry of (possibly nonselfadjoint) elliptic PsiDO's in terms of the difference of zeta functions coming from different cuttings. Refining previous formulas of Wodzicki in the case of odd class…
We prove a regularized determinant formula for the zeta functions of certain 3-dimensional Riemannian foliated dynamical systems, in terms of the infinitesimal operator induced by the flow acting on the reduced leafwise cohomologies. It is…
We define the zeta function of a finite category. And we propose a conjecture which states the relationship between the Euler characteristic of finite categories and the zeta function of finite categories. This conjecture is verified when…
We introduce new zeta functions related to an endomorphism $\phi$ of a discrete group $\Gamma$. They are of two types: counting numbers of fixed ($\rho\sim \rho\circ\phi^n$) irreducible representations for iterations of $\phi$ from an…
We introduce new non-abelian zeta functions for curves defined over finite fields. There are two types, i.e., pure non-abelian zetas defined using semi-stable bundles, and group zetas defined for pairs consisting of (reductive group,…
