We show that the Weil representation associated with any discriminant form admits a basis in which the action of the representation involves algebraic integers. The action of a general element of $\operatorname{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$ on many…

A theta curve is a spatial embedding of the $\theta$-graph in the three-sphere, taken up to ambient isotopy. We define the determinant of a theta curve as an integer-valued invariant arising from the first homology of its Klein cover. When…

Density matrices of graphs are combinatorial laplacians normalized to have trace one (Braunstein \emph{et al.} \emph{Phys. Rev. A,} \textbf{73}:1, 012320 (2006)). If the vertices of a graph are arranged as an array, then its density matrix…

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…

We derive and prove a new formulation of the Lerch zeta function as a fractional derivative of an elementary function. We demonstrate how this formulation interacts very naturally with basic known properties of Lerch zeta, and use the…

We present a deterministic polynomial time algorithm for computing the zeta function of an arbitrary variety of fixed dimension over a finite field of small characteristic. One consequence of this result is an efficient method for computing…

In this paper, we compute asymptotics for the determinant of the combinatorial Laplacian on a sequence of $d$-dimensional orthotope square lattices as the number of vertices in each dimension grows at the same rate. It is related to the…

We establish a generalized Ihara zeta function formula for simple graphs with bounded degree. This is a generalization of the formula obtained by G. Chinta, J. Jorgenson and A. Karlsson from a vertex-transitive graph.

We define a new weighted zeta function for a finite graph and obtain its determinant expression. This result gives the characteristic polynomial of the transition matrix of the Szegedy walk on a graph.

In this paper, we study the relation between the partition function of the free scalar field theory on hypercubes with boundary conditions and asymptotics of discrete partition functions on a sequence of "lattices" which approximate the…

On an open manifold, the spaces of metrics or connections of bounded geometry, respectively, split into an uncountable number of components. We show that for a pair of metrics or connections, belonging to the same component, relative…

From the viewpoint of quantum walks, the Ihara zeta function of a finite graph can be said to be closely related to its evolution matrix. In this note we introduce another kind of zeta function of a graph, which is closely related to, as to…

We generalize the normalized combinatorial Laplace operator for graphs by defining two Laplace operators for hypergraphs that can be useful in the study of chemical reaction networks. We also investigate some properties of their spectra.

We study the entire function zeta(n,s) which is the sum of l to the power -s, where l runs over the positive eigenvalues of the Laplacian of the circular graph C(n) with n vertices. We prove that the roots of zeta(n,s) converge for n to…

For a smooth family F of admissible elliptic pseudodifferential operators with differential form coefficients associated to a geometric fibration of manifolds M--> B we show that there is a natural zeta-form z(F,s) and zeta-determinant-…

We show that for every smooth hyperbolic polynomial h there is another hyperbolic polynomial q such that qh has a definite determinantal representation. This is proved by considering sum-of-squares decompositions of certain bilinear forms…

We use multiple zeta functions to prove, under suitable assumptions, precise asymptotic formulas for the averages of multivariable multiplicative functions. As applications, we prove some conjectures on the average number of cyclic…

We study zeta functions enumerating finite-dimensional irreducible complex linear representations of compact p-adic analytic and of arithmetic groups. Using methods from p-adic integration, we show that the zeta functions associated to…

We prove two conjectures regarding the representation growth of groups of type $A_2$. The first, conjectured by Avni, Klopsch, Onn and Voll, regards the uniformity of representation zeta functions over local complete discrete valuation…

We present a direct approach for the calculation of functional determinants of the Laplace operator on balls. Dirichlet and Robin boundary conditions are considered. Using this approach, formulas for any value of the dimension, $D$, of the…
