Markov processes on the adeles and Dedekind's zeta function
  Let $K$ be an algebraic number field. We construct an additive Markov process $X_t^{K_\mathbb A}$ on the ring of adeles $K_\mathbb A,$ whose coordinates $X_t^{(v)}$ are independent and use this process to give a probabilistic interpretation of the Dedekind zeta function $\zeta_K(s),$ for $\re s>1.$ This note extends a recent work of Yasuda [J. Theor. Probab. 23(3):748--769, 2010] where the case of the field $K=\Q$ of rational numbers was considered.
