Some Recent Results on Complex Powers and Zeta Distributions

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematics ((PM,volume 71))

Abstract

This is an expanded and updated version of our talk given on Dec. 2, 1985 in the Séminaire de Théorie des Nombres de Paris under the title, “Complex powers and their functional equations”. We have tried to state definitions precisely and results concisely. We have included some remarks not stated elsewhere. As we emphasized in the talk, a problem of Weil is the underlying theme.
