Abstract

In this paper, using Cohen's and Tangedal and Young's theory on the p-adic Hurwitz zeta functions, we construct the analytic Dedekind sums on the p-adic complex plane Cp. We show that these Dedekind sums interpolate Carlitz's higher order Dedekind sums p-adically. From Apostol's reciprocity law for the generalized Dedekind sums, we also prove a reciprocity relation for the special values of these p-adic Dedekind sums. Finally, the parallel results for the analytic Dedekind sums on the p-adic complex plane associated with Euler polynomials have also been given.
