We investigate the location of zeros and poles of a dynamical zeta function arizing in a class of lattice spin models introduced in the 60-ties by M. Kac. The transfer operator method allows us to prove the xistence of infinitely nontrivial…

These notes are based on three lectures given by the second author at Copenhagen University (October 2009) and at Aarhus University, Denmark (December 2009). We mostly present here a survey of results of Dieter Mayer on relations between…

Transfer operators and Ruelle zeta functions for super-continuous functions on one-sided topological Markov shifts are considered. For every super-continuous function, we construct a Banach space on which the associated transfer operator is…

We describe a general method to prove meromorphic continuation of dynamical zeta functions to the entire complex plane under the condition that the corresponding partition functions are given via a dynamical trace formula from a family of…

In this paper we consider the transfer operator approach to the Ruelle and Selberg zeta functions associated to continued fractions transformations and the geodesic flow on the full modular surface. We extend the results by Ruelle and Mayer…

In this paper, we consider the dynamical zeta functions of Ruelle and Selberg associated with the geodesic flow of a compact hyperbolic odd dimensional manifold $X$. These functions are initially defined on one complex variable $s$ in some…

We provide an explicit construction of a cross section for the geodesic flow on infinite-area Hecke triangle surfaces which allows us to conduct a transfer operator approach to the Selberg zeta function. Further we construct closely related…

We investigate a dynamical basis for the Riemann hypothesis (RH) that the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line x = 1/2. In the process we graphically explore, in as rich a way as possible, the diversity of…

We consider the dynamical zeta functions of Selberg and Ruelle associated with the geodesic flow on a compact odd-dimensional hyperbolic manifold. These dynamical zeta functions are defined for a complex variable $s$ in some right-half…

A dynamical zeta function $\zeta$ and a transfer operator $\scr L$ are associated with a piecewise monotone map $f$ of the interval $[0,1]$ and a weight function $g$. The analytic properties of $\zeta$ and the spectral properties of $\scr…

We show that the Ruelle dynamical zeta function on a closed odd dimensional locally symmetric space twisted by an arbitrary flat vector bundle has a meromorphic extension to the whole complex plane and that its leading term in the Laurent…

Emil Artin defined a zeta function for algebraic curves over finite fields and made a conjecture about them analogous to the famous Riemann hypothesis. This and other conjectures about these zeta functions would come to be called the Weil…

In recent years Lichtenbaum has conjectured a description for the special values of Hasse--Weil zeta functions in terms of ``Weil-\'etale cohomology''. In earlier papers we studied a class of foliated dynamical systems which had some…

While the definition of a fractional integral may be codified by Riemann and Liouville, an agreed-upon fractional derivative has eluded discovery for many years. This is likely a result of integral definitions including numerous constants…

This research expository article contains a survey of earlier work (in \S2--\S4) but also contains a main new result (in \S5), which we first describe. Given $c \geq 0$, the spectral operator $\mathfrak{a} = \mathfrak{a}_c$ can be thought…

We first construct a dynamical systems model which in its steady-state serves as an analytic continuation of the completed Riemann zeta function over the entire critical strip. The resulting mathematical construct involves a linear…

For smooth hyperbolic dynamical systems and smooth weights, we relate Ruelle transfer operators with dynamical Fredholm determinants and dynamical zeta functions: First, we establish bounds for the essential spectral radii of the transfer…

For geometrically finite non-compact developable hyperbolic orbisurfaces (including those of infinite volume), we provide transfer operator families whose Fredholm determinants are identical to the Selberg zeta function. Our proof yields an…

This paper explores the domain of meromorphic extension for the dynamical zeta function associated to a class of one-dimensional differentiable parabolic maps featuring an indifferent fixed point. We establish the connection between this…

The modified zeta functions $\sum_{n \in K} n^{-s}$, where $K \subset \N$, converge absolutely for $\Re s > 1/2$. These generalise the Riemann zeta function which is known to have a meromorphic continuation to all of $\C$ with a single pole…
