Bost-Connes-Marcolli systems for Shimura varieties. I. Definitions and   formal analytic properties
  We construct a quantum statistical mechanical system $(A,s)$ analogous to the systems constructed by Bost-Connes and Connes-Marcolli in the case of Shimura varieties. Along the way, we define a new Bost-Connes system for number fields which has the ``correct'' partition function and the ``correct'' symmetries. We give a formalism that applies to general Shimura data $(G,X)$. The object of this series of papers is to show that these systems exhibit phase transitions with spontaneous symmetry breaking, and to classify their KMS states, at least for low temperature.
