Geometric zeta-functions of locally symmetric spaces
The theory of geometric zeta functions for locally symmetric spaces as initialized by Selberg and continued by numerous mathematicians is generalized to the case of higher rank spaces. We show analytic continuation, describe the divisor in terms of tangential cohomology and in terms of group cohomology which generalizes the Patterson conjecture. We also extend the range of zeta functions in con...
متن کاملEquivariant Torsion of Locally Symmetric Spaces
In this paper we express the equivariant torsion of an Hermitian locally symmetric space in terms of geometrical data from closed geodesics and their Poincaré maps. For a Hermitian locally symmetric space Y and a holomorphic isometry g we define a zeta function Z(s) for <(s) 0, whose definition involves closed geodesics and their Poincaré maps. We show that Z extends meromorphically to the enti...
متن کاملMetric compacti cations of locally symmetric spaces
We introduce hyperbolic and asymptotic compactiications of metric spaces and apply them to locally symmetric spaces ?nX. We show that the reductive Borel{Serre compactiication ?nX RBS is hyperbolic and, as a corollary, get a result of Borel, and Kobayashi{Ochiai that the Baily{Borel compactiication ?nX BB is hyperbolic. We prove that the hyperbolic reduction of the toroidal compactiications ?nX...
متن کاملL-invariants of locally symmetric spaces
Let X = G/K be a Riemannian symmetric space of the noncompact type, Γ ⊂ G a discrete, torsion-free, cocompact subgroup, and let Y = Γ\X be the corresponding locally symmetric space. In this paper we explain how the Harish-Chandra Plancherel Theorem for L(G) and results on (g,K)-cohomology can be used in order to compute the L-Betti numbers, the Novikov-Shubin invariants, and the L-torsion of Y ...
متن کاملSymmetric spaces of higher rank do not admit differentiable compactifications
Any nonpositively curved symmetric space admits a topological compactification, namely the Hadamard compactification. For rank 1 spaces, this topological compactification can be endowed with a differentiable structure such that the action of the isometry group is differentiable. Moreover, the restriction of the action on the boundary leads to a flat model for some geometry (conformal, CR or qua...
