Zeta functions of nilpotent groups - singular Pfaffians
نویسنده
چکیده
The local normal zeta functions of a finitely generated, torsion-free nilpotent group G of class 2 depend on the geometry of the Pfaffian hypersurface associated to the bilinear form induced by taking commutators in G. The smallest examples of zeta functions which are not finitely uniform arise from groups whose associated Pfaffian hypersurfaces are plane curves. In this paper we study groups whose Pfaffians define singular curves, illustrating that the local normal zeta functions may indeed invoke all the degeneracy loci of the Pfaffian.

Local Functional Equations for Submodule Zeta Functions Associated to Nilpotent Algebras of Endomorphisms
We give a sufficient criterion for generic local functional equations for submodule zeta functions associated to nilpotent algebras of endomorphisms defined over number fields. This allows us, in particular, to prove various conjectures on such functional equations for ideal zeta functions of nilpotent Lie lattices. Via the Mal’cev correspondence, these results have corollaries pertaining to ze...
متن کاملFunctional equations for local normal zeta functions of nilpotent groups
We give an explicit formula for the local normal zeta functions of torsion-free, class-2-nilpotent groups at primes p where the associated Pfaffian hypersurface has good reduction mod p and contains no lines. We show how together the functional equations of two types of zeta functions the Weil zeta function associated to an algebraic variety and zeta functions of algebraic groups introduced by ...
متن کاملZeta Functions from Definable Equivalence Relations
We prove that the theory of the p-adics Qp, together with a set of explicitly given sorts, admits elimination of imaginaries. Using p-adic integration, we deduce the rationality of certain formal zeta functions arising from definable equivalence relations. As an application, we prove rationality results for zeta functions obtained by counting isomorphism classes of irreducible representations o...
متن کاملRepresentation Zeta Functions of Some Nilpotent Groups Associated to Prehomogenous Vector Spaces
We compute the representation zeta functions of some finitely generated nilpotent groups associated to unipotent group schemes over rings of integers in number fields. These group schemes are defined by Lie lattices whose presentations are modelled on certain prehomogeneous vector spaces. Our method is based on evaluating p-adic integrals associated to certain rank varieties of linear forms.
متن کاملUniform Analytic Properties of Representation Zeta Functions of Finitely Generated Nilpotent Groups
Let G be a finitely generated nilpotent group. The representation zeta function ζG(s) of G enumerates twist isoclasses of finite-dimensional irreducible complex representations of G. We prove that ζG(s) has rational abscissa of convergence α(G) and may be meromorphically continued to the left of α(G) and that, on the line {s ∈ C | Re(s) = α(G)}, the continued function is holomorphic except for ...
