This work is concerned with zeta functions of two-dimensional shifts of finite type. A two-dimensional zeta function $\zeta^{0}(s)$, which generalizes the Artin-Mazur zeta function, was given by Lind for $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$-action $\phi$. In this paper, the $n$th-order zeta function $\zeta_{n}$ of $\phi$ on $\mathbb{Z}_{n\times \infty}$, $n\geq 1$, is studied first. The trace operator $\mathbf{T}_{n}$, which is the transition matrix for $x$-periodic patterns with period $n$ and height $2$, is rotationally symmetric. The rotational symmetry of $\mathbf{T}_{n}$ induces the reduced trace operator $\tau_{n}$ and $\zeta_{n}=\left(\det\left(I-s^{n}\tau_{n}\right)\right)^{-1}$. The zeta function $\zeta=\prod_{n=1}^{\infty} \left(\det\left(I-s^{n}\tau_{n}\right)\right)^{-1}$ in the $x$-direction is now a reciprocal of an infinite product of polynomials. The zeta function can be presented in the $y$-direction and in the coordinates of any unimodular transformation in $GL_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$. Therefore, there exists a family of zeta functions that are meromorphic extensions of the same analytic function $\zeta^{0}(s)$. The natural boundary of zeta functions is studied. The Taylor series for these zeta functions at the origin are equal with integer coefficients, yielding a family of identities, which are of interest in number theory. The method applies to thermodynamic zeta functions for the Ising model with finite range interactions.

Recently, the old notion of causal boundary for a spacetime V has been redefined consistently. The computation of this boundary ∂V on any standard conformally stationary spacetime V=R×M, suggests a natural compactification MB associated to any Riemannian metric on M or, more generally, to any Finslerian one. The corresponding boundary ∂BM is constructed in terms of Busemann-type functions. Roughly, ∂BM represents the set of all the directions in M including both, asymptotic and "finite" (or "incomplete") directions. This Busemann boundary ∂BM is related to two classical boundaries: the Cauchy boundary ∂CM and the Gromov boundary ∂GM. The authors' aims are: (1) to study the subtleties of both, the Cauchy boundary for any generalized (possibly non-symmetric) distance and the Gromov compactification for any (possibly incomplete) Finsler manifold, (2) to introduce the new Busemann compactification MB, relating it with the previous two completions, and (3) to give a full description of the causal boundary ∂V of any standard conformally stationary spacetime.

Let $G=G(K)$ be a simple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p\geq 0$. A subgroup $X$ of $G$ is said to be $G$-completely reducible if, whenever it is contained in a parabolic subgroup of $G$, it is contained in a Levi subgroup of that parabolic. A subgroup $X$ of $G$ is said to be $G$-irreducible if $X$ is in no proper parabolic subgroup of $G$; and $G$-reducible if it is in some proper parabolic of $G$. In this paper, the author considers the case that $G=F_4(K)$. The author finds all conjugacy classes of closed, connected, semisimple $G$-reducible subgroups $X$ of $G$. Thus he also finds all non-$G$-completely reducible closed, connected, semisimple subgroups of $G$. When $X$ is closed, connected and simple of rank at least two, he finds all conjugacy classes of $G$-irreducible subgroups $X$ of $G$. Together with the work of Amende classifying irreducible subgroups of type $A_1$ this gives a complete classification of the simple subgroups of $G$. The author also uses this classification to find all subgroups of $G=F_4$ which are generated by short root elements of $G$, by utilising and extending the results of Liebeck and Seitz.
