Special values of zeta-functions of schemes (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We will give conjectured formulas giving the behavior of the
seta-function of regular schemes projective and flat over Spec Z at
non-positive integers in terms of Weil-etale cohomology. We will also
explain the conjectured relationship of Weil-etale cohomology to etale
cohomology, which makes it possible to express these formulas also in terms
of etale cohomology.
