On special values at \(s=0\) of partial zeta-functions for real quadratic fields (Q1333601)

Let \(F\) be a totally real number field and let \({\mathfrak A}\) be a fractional ideal of \(F\). For \(z \in F\), let \(z {\mathfrak A}^{-1} = {\mathfrak f} {\mathfrak b}^{-1}\) with \({\mathfrak f}\) and \({\mathfrak b}\) relatively prime integral ideals. Define \(\xi_{\mathfrak A} (z) = \exp (2 \pi i \zeta_{\mathfrak f} ({\mathfrak b}, 0))\), where \(\zeta_{\mathfrak f} ({\mathfrak b},s)\) is the partial zeta function for the class of \({\mathfrak b}\) in the narrow ray class group modulo \({\mathfrak f}\). A reformulation of results of \textit{P. Deligne} and \textit{K. A. Ribet} [Invent. Math. 59, 227-286 (1980; Zbl 0434.12009)] shows that \(\xi_{\mathfrak A} (z)\) is a root of unity depending only on \(z \text{mod} {\mathfrak A}\), and the action of \(\text{Gal} (F_{ab}/F)\) on \(\zeta_{\mathfrak A}\) is analogous to Shimura's reciprocity law for CM elliptic curves. In the case of a real quadratic field \(F\), the map \(\xi_{\mathfrak A}\) is expressed in terms of the special values of an infinite series studied by \textit{B. C. Berndt} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 178, 495-508 (1973; Zbl 0262.10015)] and the author [Math. Ann. 260, 475-494 (1982; Zbl 0488.12005)].
