The Ihara zeta function of the infinite grid

Bryan Clair

The infinite grid is the Cayley graph of with the usual generators. In this paper, the Ihara zeta function for the infinite grid is computed using el…

Growth of Betti Numbers

Bryan Clair, Kevin Whyte

Suppose X is any finite complex with vanishing L^2 Betti number. We prove upper bounds on the Betti numbers for regular coverings of X, sublinear in the order of covering. The boun…

Convergence of zeta functions of graphs

Bryan Clair, Shahriar Mokhtari-Sharghi

The -zeta function of an infinite graph Y (defined previously in a ball around zero) has an analytic extension. For a tower of finite graphs covered by Y, the normalized zeta…

Zeta Functions Of Discrete Groups Acting On Trees

Bryan Clair, Shahriar Mokhtari-Sharghi

This paper generalizes Bass' work on zeta functions for uniform tree lattices. Using the theory of von Neumann algebras, machinery is developed to define the zeta function of a dis…

Residual Amenability and the Approximation of L^2-invariants

Bryan Clair

We generalize Luck's Theorem to show that the L^2-Betti numbers of a residually amenable covering space are the limit of the L^2-Betti numbers of a sequence of amenable covering sp…
