Abstract
For a finite group , let be the number of subgroups of order and define . Examples are known of non-isomorphic finite groups with the same group zeta function. However, no general criterion is known for when two finite groups have the same group zeta function. Fix integers and a prime , and consider the metacyclic -groups of split type defined by . For fixed and , we characterize the pairs of parameters for which .
