We study disemisimple Lie algebras, i.e., algebras which can be written as a vector space sum of two semisimple subalgebras. show that algebra g is if and only its solvable radical coincides with nilradical prehomogeneous s-module for Levi subalgebra s g. use the classification s-modules simple given by Vinberg to abelian. extend this result having no quotients type A.

Let k be a function field of one variable over a finite field with the characteristic not equal to two. In this paper, we consider the prehomogeneous representation of the space of binary quadratic forms over k. We have two main results. The first result is on the principal part of the global zeta function associated with the prehomogeneous vector space. The second result is on a mean value the...

The purpose of this department is to provide early announcement of outstanding new results, with some indication of proof. Research announcements are limited to 100 typed lines of 65 spaces each. A limited number of research announcements may be communicated by each member of the Council who is also a member of a Society editorial committee. Manuscripts for research announcements should be sent...

We prove that a homogeneous Banach space B on the unit circle T can be embedded as a closed subspace of a dual space ΞB contained in the space of bounded Borel measures on T in such a way that the map B → ΞB defines a bijective correspondence between the class of homogeneous Banach spaces on T and the class of prehomogeneous Banach spaces on T. We apply our results to show that the algebra of a...

The theory of flat Pseudo-Riemannian manifolds and flat affine manifolds is closely connected to the topic of prehomogeneous affine representations of Lie groups. In this article, we exhibit several aspects of this correspondence. At the heart of our presentation is a development of the theory of characteristic classes and characters of prehomogeneous affine representations. We give application...

For an arbitrary number field K with ring of integers OK , we prove an analogue over finite rings of the form OK/p of the Fundamental Theorem on the Fourier transform of a relative invariant of prehomogeneous vector spaces, where p is a big enough prime ideal of OK and m > 1. In the appendix, F. Sato gives an application of the Theorems 1.2 and 1.5 (and Theorems A, B, C in [4]) to the functiona...

We investigate the Shintani zeta functions associated to the prehomogeneous spaces, the example under consideration is the set of 2 × 2 × 2 integer cubes. We show that there are three relative invariants under a certain parabolic group action, they all have arithmetic nature and completely determine the equivalence classes. We show that the associated Shintani zeta function coincides with the A...

We study the space of binary cubic and quadratic forms over the ring of integers O of an algebraic number field k. By applying the theory of prehomogeneous vector spaces founded by M. Sato and T. Shintani, we can associate the zeta functions for these spaces. Applying these zeta functions, we derive some density theorems on the distributions of discriminants of cubic algebras of O. In the case ...

In this paper, we consider the prehomogeneous vector space for pair of simple algebras which are k-forms of the D4 type and the E6 type. We mainly study the non-split cases. The main purpose of this paper is to determine the principal parts of the global zeta functions associated with these spaces in the non-split cases. We also give a description of the sets of rational orbits of these spaces,...

In previous work, Ohno [Ohn97] conjectured, and Nakagawa [Nak98] proved, relations between the counting functions of certain cubic fields. These relations may be viewed as complements to the Scholz reflection principle, and Ohno and Nakagawa deduced them as consequences of ‘extra functional equations’ involving the Shintani zeta functions associated to the prehomogeneous vector space of binary ...
