In this paper, \(H\) is a solvable Lie group which is isomorphic to a unimodularization of a product of affine groups. Two lattices \(\Gamma\) and \(\Gamma'\) in \(H\) are said to be commensurable if \([\Gamma:\Gamma\cap\Gamma']<\infty\) and \([\Gamma':\Gamma\cap\Gamma']<\infty\). The two lattices are said to be commensurable if there exists an automorphism \(\varphi\) of \(H\) such that \(\varphi(\Gamma)\) and \(\Gamma'\) are commensurable. To every lattice \(\Gamma\subset H\), the authors associate a totally algebraic number field \({\mathbf k}(\Gamma)\) of degree \(n+1\). They prove that the association \(\Gamma\mapsto {\mathbf k}(\Gamma)\) induces a bijective map from the set of weakly commensurable classes of lattices of \(H\) to the set of isomorphism classes of totally real algebraic number fields of degree \(n+1\). They also show that the outer automorphism group of the lattice has a faithful representation in the automorphism group of the number field. As an application, the authors obtain a classification of codimension-one volume preserving locally free actions of products of affine groups.
