Abstract
In a previous paper [5], one of the present authors has worked out a theory of zeta functions of Selberg’s type for compact quotients of symmetric spaces of rank one. In the present paper, we consider the analogues of those results when G/K is a noncompact symmetric space of rank one and Γ is a discrete subgroup of G such that G/Γ is not compact but such that vol(G/Γ)<∞. Thus, Γ is a non-uniform lattice. Certain mild restrictions, which are fulfilled in many arithmetic cases, will be put on Γ, and we shall consider how one can define a zeta function ZΓ of Selberg’s type attached to the data (G, K, Γ).Keywords
