Zeta Functions for the Adjoint Action of GL(n) and density of residues of Dedekind zeta functions
Abstract
We define zeta functions for the adjoint action of GL(n) on its Lie algebra and study their analytic properties. For n<4 we are able to fully analyse these functions, and recover the Shintani zeta function for the prehomogeneous vector space of binary quadratic forms for n=2. Our construction naturally yields a regularisation, which is necessary for the improvement of the properties of these zeta function, in particular for the analytic continuation if n>2. We further obtain upper and lower bounds on the mean value X^{-5/2}\sum_{E} \res_{s=1}ζ_E(s) as X->\infty, where E runs over totally real cubic number fields whose second successive minimum of the trace form on its ring of integers is bounded by X. To prove the upper bound we use our new zeta function for GL(3). These asymptotic bounds are a first step towards a generalisation of density results obtained by Datskovsky in case of quadratic field extensions.
