Eisenstein–Kronecker number

In mathematics, Eisenstein–Kronecker numbers are an analogue for imaginary quadratic fields of generalized Bernoulli numbers.[1][2][3] They are defined in terms of classical Eisenstein–Kronecker series, which were studied by Kenichi Bannai and Shinichi Kobayashi using the Poincaré bundle.[3][4]

Eisenstein–Kronecker numbers are algebraic and satisfy congruences that can be used in the construction of two-variable p-adic L-functions.[3][5] They are related to critical L-values of Hecke characters.[1][5]
