On the Shintani zeta function for the space of binary tri-Hermitian forms (Q1359533)

The purpose of this paper is to give a definition of the zeta function of a ``tri-Hermitian form'' and a formula for the poles of the zeta function. This zeta function has a close relation with the zeta function of binary cubic forms by Shintani. The arguments are carried out on the adelic space, and the zeta function is given as an integral with a complex parameter \(s\in \mathbb{C}\) on the adelization of the algebraic group, which is absolutely convergent for \(s\) in a specific domain of \(\mathbb{C}\) and extendable to the whole complex plane. The main theorem gives the decomposition formula of the integral to the entire part in \(s\) and the principal part of the poles.
