Abstract

A weak version of the Ihara formula is proved for zeta functions attached to quotients of the Bruhat–Tits building of PGL 3 . This formula expresses the zeta function in terms of Hecke-operators. It is the first step towards an arithmetical interpretation of the combinatorially defined zeta function.
