We prove a formula for the motivic zeta function of f in terms of an embedded resolution. This formula is over the Grothendieck ring itself, and specializes to the formula of Denef and Loeser over a certain localization. We also show that the space of n-jets satisfying f=0 can be partitioned into locally closed subsets which are isomorphic to a cartesian product of some variety with an affine space of dimension the round up of dn/2. Finally, we look at the consequences for the poles of the motivic zeta function.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2012-09-17T09:00:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14B05", "14E15", "14J17" ], "keywords": [ "motivic zeta function", "smallest poles", "nonsingular complex algebraic variety", "regular function", "cartesian product" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0710.5911S" } } }
