Functional equations for zeta functions of \(\mathbb F_1\)-schemes (Q611148)

Let \(X\) be an irreducible smooth projective variety of dimension \(n\) over \({\mathbb Z}\) which has an elusive model \({\mathcal X}\) over the field \({\mathbb F}_1\) with one element. The zeta function of \({\mathcal X}\) is \(\zeta_{\mathcal X}(s)=\prod_{i=0}^n(s-i)^{-b_{2i}}\), where \(b_0,\ldots,b_{2n}\) are the Betti numbers of \(X\). The author proves the functional equation \[ \zeta_{\mathcal X}(n-s)=(-1)^\chi \zeta_{\mathcal X}(s), \] where \(\chi=\sum_{i=0}^n b_{2i}\) is the Euler characteristic of \(X_{\mathbb C}\). If \(G\) is a split reductive group scheme of rank \(r\) with \(N\) positive roots, then \[ \zeta_{\mathcal G}(r+N-s)=(-1)^\chi(\zeta_{\mathcal G}(s))^{(-1)^r}. \]
