Abstract: Let $G$ be a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group. The representation zeta function $zet{a}_G(s)$ of $G$ enumerates twist isoclasses of finite-dimensional irreducible complex representations of $G$. We prove that $zet{a}_G(s)$ has rational abscissa of convergence $a(G)$ and may be meromorphically continued to the left of $a(G)$ and that, on the line $sinmathbbCmidextrmRe(s)=a(G)$, the continued function is holomorphic except for a pole at $s=a(G)$. A Tauberian theorem yields a precise asymptotic result on the representation growth of $G$ in terms of the position and order of this pole. We obtain these results as a consequence of a more general result establishing uniform analytic properties of representation zeta functions of finitely generated nilpotent groups of the form $mathbfG(mathcalO)$, where $mathbfG$ is a unipotent group scheme defined in terms of a nilpotent Lie lattice over the ring $mathcalO$ of integers of a number field. This allows us to show, in particular, that the abscissae of convergence of the representation zeta functions of such groups and their pole orders are invariants of $mathbfG$, independent of $mathcalO$.
