    Abstract

    We consider the semi-classical (or Gutzwiller–Voros) zeta functions for C contact Anosov flows. Analyzing the spectra of the generators of some transfer operators associated to the flow, we prove that, for arbitrarily small τ> 0 , its zeros are contained in the union of the τ-neighborhood of the imaginary axis, | R(s) | < τ, and the half-plane R(s) < - χ0+ τ, up to finitely many exceptions, where χ0> 0 is the hyperbolicity exponent of the flow. Further we show that the density of the zeros along the imaginary axis satisfy an analogue of the Weyl law.
