Representation Growth of Arithmetic Groups

Nir Avni (Hebrew University, visiting UCLA)

Abstract

For a group G, let r_n(G) be the number of n-dimensional irreducible representations of G. For some arithmetic groups, the sequence r_n(G) grows polynomially, and its behavior can be encoded in a zeta-like function. I will describe several results and open questions regarding the poles, meromorphic continuation, and functional equation for this zeta function.
