Research Abstract |
In the quantum gauge theory, which is one of those describing nature, the partition functions are considered to be the most fundamental and important quantities. Witten found that certain limits of the partition functions are described in terms of the volumes of certain spaces. These can be regarded as special values of zeta functions. In this study, we derived general formulas which give these special values, and furthermore presented some solutions to related problems.
