Artin L-functions are powerful tools in number theory, encoding arithmetic information about . They're defined as infinite products over prime ideals and reveal deep connections between algebra and analysis through their properties.
The bridges number theory and representation theory, equating certain L-functions. Its proof uses algebraic techniques and has far-reaching implications, generalizing reciprocity laws and laying groundwork for modern number theory advances.

Artin L-functions define infinite product over prime ideals encoding arithmetic information about Galois representations
L(s,ρ,K/F)=∏pdet(I−ρ(Frobp)N(p)−s)−1
ρ represents Galois group Gal(K/F) (group of field automorphisms)
K/F denotes Galois extension of number fields (algebraic number fields with Galois group)
p runs over prime ideals of F (ideals generated by irreducible elements)
Frobp signifies Frobenius element at p (special automorphism in Galois group)
N(p) calculates norm of prime ideal p (number of elements in residue field)
Properties of Artin L-functions reveal deep connections between algebra and analysis
Meromorphic continuation extends function beyond initial domain of convergence
relates values of L-function at s and 1−s
Analytic behavior at s=1 connects to important arithmetic properties (class numbers, regulators)
Relation to Dedekind zeta functions demonstrates factorization principle
ζK(s)=∏ρL(s,ρ,K/F)dimρ
Decomposes zeta function of larger field into L-functions of smaller field
Proof of Artin reciprocity law
Artin reciprocity law establishes fundamental connection between number theory and representation theory
L(s,χ,K/F)=L(s,ρχ,K/F)
χ represents Hecke character of F (generalization of Dirichlet characters)
ρχ denotes representation of Gal(K/F) induced by χ
