Meromorphic extensions of generalised zeta functions. (English) Zbl 0604.58042

Invent. Math. 85, 147-164 (1986).
The author gives a full description of the spectrum of the Ruelle-Perron- Frobenius operator acting on the Banach space of Hölder continuous functions on a subshift of finite type. Particularly, the author extends the meromorphic domain of the zeta-function for a flow under a positive Hölder continuous function suspended over a shift of finite type. Then they are translated to the Axiom A case via the symbolic dynamics of Bowen and a combinatorial result of Manning. Finally, certain distribution results for orbit period, called prime orbit theorems, are proven by analogy with the prime number theorem. Here the zeta-function for an Axiom A flow assumes a similar role to the Riemann zeta-function in the analytical proof of the prime number theorem.
A special case of an Axiom A flow is a geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of a manifold of constant negative curvature. In this case the extensions to the zeta function come from appealing to harmonic analysis and, in particular, the Selberg trace formula.
