Consider a space $M$, a map $f:M o M$, and a function $g:M o {mathbb C}$. The formal power series $zeta (z) = exp sum ^infty_{m=1} frac {z^m} sum_{x in mathrm ,f^m} prod ^{m-1}_{k=0} g (f^kx)$ yields an example of a dynamical zeta function. Such functions have unexpected analytic properties and interesting relations to the theory of dynamical systems, statistical mechanics, and the spectral theory of certain operators (transfer operators). The first part of this monograph presents a general introduction to this subject. The second part is a detailed study of the zeta functions...
