Integration on valuation fields over local fields (Q989213)

Let \(F\) be a valuation field with valuation group \(\Gamma\) and integers \({\mathcal O}_F\) whose residue field \(\overline{F}\) is a non-discrete, locally compact field (i.e. a local field: \({\mathbb R},{\mathbb C}\) or non-archimedean). Given a Haar integrable function \(f:\overline{F}\rightarrow{\mathbb C}\), consider the lift \(f^{0,0}\) of \(f\) to \({\mathcal O}_F\) together with its scalings \(f^{0,0}(\alpha x+a), a\in F, \alpha\in F^{\times}\). An integral is defined on the space spanned by such \(f^{0,0}\), with values in \({\mathbb C}\Gamma\) (the complex group algebra of \(\Gamma\)). The paper proceeds to develop some harmonic analysis for fields that are self-dual in a suitable sense. The main results generalise results of \textit{I. Fesenko} [Doc. Math., J.

The final sections of the paper are devoted to zeta integrals, including interesting connections with quantum physics.
