Splitting density for lifting about discrete groups

We study splitting densities of primitive elements of a discrete subgroup of a connected non-compact semisimple Lie group of real rank one with finite center in another larger such discrete subgroup. When the corresponding cover of such a locally symmetric negatively curved Riemannian manifold is regular, the densities can be easily obtained from the results due to Sarnak or Sunada. Our main interest is a case where the covering is not necessarily regular. Specifically, for the cases of the modular group and its congruence subgroups, we determine the splitting densities explicitly. As an application, we study analytic properties of the zeta function defined by the Euler product over elements consisting all primitive elements which satisfy a certain splitting law for a given lifting.

Invariant theory for singular $α$-determinants

From the irreducible decompositions' point of view, the structure of the cyclic $GL_n$-module generated by the $α$-determinant degenerates when $α=\pm \frac1k (1\leq k\leq n-1)$. In this paper, we show that $-\frac1k$-determinant shares similar properties which the ordinary determinant possesses. From this fact, one can define a new (relative) invariant called a wreath determinant. Using $(GL_m, GL_n)$-duality in the sense of Howe, we obtain an expression of a wreath determinant by a certain linear combination of the corresponding ordinary minor determinants labeled by suitable rectangular shape tableaux. Also we study a wreath determinant analogue of the Vandermonde determinant, and then, investigate symmetric functions such as Schur functions in the framework of wreath determinants. Moreover, we examine coefficients which we call $(n,k)$-sign appeared at the linear expression of the wreath determinant in relation with a zonal spherical function of a Young subgroup of the symmetric group $S_{nk}$.

Quantum $α$-determinant cyclic modules of $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$

As a particular one parameter deformation of the quantum determinant, we introduce a quantum $α$-determinant and study the $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$-cyclic module generated by it: We show that the multiplicity of each irreducible representation in this cyclic module is determined by a certain polynomial called the $q$-content discriminant. A part of the present result is a quantum counterpart for the result of Matsumoto and Wakayama (2005), however, a new distinguished feature arises in our situation.

Apéry-like numbers arising from special values of spectral zeta functions for non-commutative harmonic oscillators

We derive an expression for the value $ζ_Q(3)$ of the spectral zeta function $ζ_Q(s)$ studied by Ichinose and Wakayama for the non-commutative harmonic oscillator defined in the work of Parmeggiani and Wakayama using a Gaussian hypergeometric function. In this study, two sequences of rational numbers, denoted $J_2(n)$ and $J_3(n)$, which can be regarded as analogues of the Apéry numbers, naturally arise and play a key role in obtaining the expressions for the values $ζ_Q(2)$ and $ζ_Q(3)$. We also show that the numbers $J_2(n)$ and $J_3(n)$ have congruence relations like those of the Apéry numbers.

Alpha-determinant cyclic modules of $gl_n(C)$

The alpha-determinant unifies and interpolates the notion of the determinant and permanent. We determine the irreducible decomposition of the cyclic module of $gl_n(C)$ defined by the alpha-determinant. The degeneracy of the irreducible decomposition is determined by the content polynomial of a given partition.

Applications of Minor Summation Formula III, Plucker Relations, Lattice Paths and Pfaffian Identities

The initial purpose of this paper is to provide a combinatorial proof of the minor summation formula of Pfaffians based on the lattice path method. There we related Plücker relations with the minor summation formula of Pfaffians to simplify its proof by lattice paths. The second aim is to find a various applications of the minor summation formula. First we studied a variant of the Sundquist formula established in J. Alg. Combin. {\bf 5} (1996). Next we gave a simple proof of Kawanaka's formula concerning a $q$-series identity involving Schur functions in Osaka J. Math. {\bf 36} (1999). We also establish a certain identity similar to the Kawanaka formula, and give a combinatorial proof of the determinant version of his formula in Osaka J. Math. {\bf 38} (2001).

Hierarchy of the Selberg zeta functions

We introduce a Selberg type zeta function of two variables which interpolates several higher Selberg zeta functions. The analytic continuation, the functional equation and the determinant expression of this function via the Laplacian on a Riemann surface are obtained.

Integral representations of q-analogues of the Hurwitz zeta function

Two integral representations of q-analogues of the Hurwitz zeta function are established. Each integral representation allows us to obtain an analytic continuation including also a full description of poles and special values at non-positive integers of the q-analogue of the Hurwitz zeta function, and to study the classical limit of this q-analogue. All the discussion developed here is entirely different from the previous work in [4]

q-Analogues of the Riemann zeta, the Dirichlet L-functions, and a crystal zeta function

A q-analogue of the Riemann zeta function was studied in [Kaneko et al. 03] via a certain q-series of two variables. We introduce in a similar way a q-analogue of the Dirichlet L-functions and make a detailed study of them, including some issues concerning the classical limit of the q-analogue left open in [Kaneko et al. 03]. We also examine a "crystal" limit (i.e. q->0) behavior of the q-analogue. The q-trajectories of the trivial and essential zeros of the Riemann zeta function are investigated numerically when q moves in (0,1]. Moreover, conjectures for the crystal limit behavior of zeros of the q-analogue are given.

A variation of Euler's approach to values of the Riemann zeta function

An elementary method of computing the values at negative integers of the Riemann zeta function is presented. The principal ingredient is a new q-analogue of the Riemann zeta function. We show that for any argument other than 1 the classical limit of this q-analogue exists and equals the value of the Riemann zeta.
