Title: Symmetries and the Riemann Hypothesis
Abstract: Associated to each pair of a reductive group and its maximal parabolic, we will introduce an abelian zeta function. This zeta, defined using Weyl symmetries, is expected to satisfy a standard functional equation and the Riemann Hypothesis. Its relation with the so-called high rank zeta, a very different but closely related non-abelian zeta, defined using stable lattices and a new geo-arithmetical cohomology, will be explained. Examples for SL, SO, Sp and G_2 and confirmations of (Lagarias and) Masatoshi Suzuki on the RH for zetas associated to rank 1 and 2 groups will be presented as well.
