Ohno's conjecture on zeta functions of pairs of ternary quadratic forms

Let LL and L^\hat{L} be the two lattices in the prehomogeneous vector space whose zeta functions are ξi(L,s)\xi_i(L,s) and ξi(L^,s)\xi_i(\hat{L},s) for i=1,2,3i=1,2,3, as defined in the paper. Ohno's conjecture. The zeta functions satisfy

ξ1(L^,s)=ξ1(L,s)+ξ3(L,s),ξ2(L^,s)=2ξ2(L,s),ξ3(L^,s)=3ξ1(L,s)ξ3(L,s).\xi_1(\hat{L},s)=\xi_1(L,s)+\xi_3(L,s), \qquad \xi_2(\hat{L},s)=2\xi_2(L,s), \qquad \xi_3(\hat{L},s)=3\xi_1(L,s)-\xi_3(L,s).

Equivalently,

3ξ1(L^,s)+ξ3(L^,s)=2(3ξ1(L,s)+ξ3(L,s)),3\xi_1(\hat{L},s)+\xi_3(\hat{L},s)=2\left(3\xi_1(L,s)+\xi_3(L,s)\right), ξ2(L^,s)=2ξ2(L,s),\xi_2(\hat{L},s)=2\xi_2(L,s), ξ1(L^,s)ξ3(L^,s)=2(ξ1(L,s)ξ3(L,s)).\xi_1(\hat{L},s)-\xi_3(\hat{L},s)=-2\left(\xi_1(L,s)-\xi_3(L,s)\right).

The conjecture relates the four Dirichlet series associated with the two lattices; it is motivated by the preceding coefficient identities and numerical examples. The paper states that the conjecture was proved by the author in 1998.
