On the effect of pruning on the singularity structure of zeta functions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We investigate the topological zeta function for unimodal maps in general and dynamical zeta functions for the tent map in particular. For the generic situation, when the kneading sequence is aperiodic, it is shown that the zeta functions have a natural boundary along its radius of convergence, beyond which the function lacks analytic continuation. We make a detailed study of the function prodn=0infty(1−z2n) associated with sequences of period doublings. It is demonstrated that this function has a dense set of poles and zeros on the unit circle, exhibiting a rich number theoretical structure.
