Introduction. This book is an improved version of our memoir that appeared in Bonner Mathematische Schriften, [64].

Its purpose is twofold: first, we give

a complete relatively self-contained proof of the theorem concerning analytic continuation and natural boundary

of Euler products (sketched

in Chapter III of [64]) and describe applications of Dirichlet series represented by Euler products under consideration; secondly, we review in detail classical methods of analytic number theory in fields of algebraic numbers.

Our presentation of these methods (see Chapter I) has

been most influenced by the work of E. Landau, [24], and A. Weil,

[91]

(cf. also [87]).

[40], [42], E. Heeke,

In Chapter II we develop

formalism of Euler products generated by polynomials whose coefficients lie in the ring of virtual characters of the (absolute) Weil group of a number field and apply it to study scalar products of Artin-Weil Lfunctions.

This leads, in particular, to a solution of a long-standing

problem concerning analytic behaviour of the scalar products, or convolutions, of L-functions Hecke "mit Grossencharakteren" (cf , [63] for the history of this problem; one may regard this note as a resume of Chapter II, if you like).

Chapter III describes applications of those

scalar products to the problem of asymptotic distribution of integral and prime ideals having equal norms and to a classical problem about distribution of integral points on a variety defined by a system of norm-forms.

Chapter IV is designed to relate the contents
