We investigate the topological properties of the poset of proper cosets xH in a finite group G. Of particular interest is the reduced Euler characteristic, which is closely related to the value at -1 of the probabilistic zeta function of G. Our main result gives divisibility properties of this reduc

Presented in a continuous extension of a measure used by Sol Golomb to define a probability on the sample space of natural numbers. The extension is a probability measure which holds several characteristic in common with Golomb's measure but on the set \((1, \infty)\). I have proven a theorem which
This paper generalizes Bass' work on zeta functions for uniform tree lattices. Using the theory of von Neumann algebras, machinery is developed to define the zeta function of a discrete group of automorphisms of a bounded degree tree. The main theorems relate the zeta function to determinants of ope
The number of spanning trees in a finite graph is first expressed as the derivative (at 1) of a determinant and then in terms of a zeta function. This generalizes a result of Hashimoto to non-regular graphs. ## 1998 Academic Press Let G be a finite graph. The complexity of G, denoted }, is the num
## Abstract In this paper, we have exhibited, by utilizing value distribution theory, some new properties of the Gamma function Ξ(__z__) and the Riemann zeta function ΞΆ(__z__). Specifically, we have proved that both of the two functions are prime and the Riemann zeta function, like Ξ(__z__), does n
