Streszczenie
We prove a dichotomy between rationality and a natural boundary for the analytic behavior of the Reidemeister zeta function for tame endomorphisms of $\mathbb Z _p^d,$ where $\mathbb Z _p$ is the additive group of $p$-adic integers. We also prove the rationality of the coincidence Reidemeister zeta function for tame endomorphism pairs of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups, based on a weak commutativity condition. Furthermore, we prove the Gauss congruences for Reidemeister coincidence numbers of iterations of tame endomorphism pairs of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups.
