Non-Archimedean integration and Jacquet–Langlands $p$-adic $L$-functions

In 1964 Kubota and Leopoldt constructed a $p$-adic analogue of the Riemann zeta-function. Since then the class of $L$-functions with $p$-adic variants has continually been enlarged. At the beginning of the article we survey work in this direction, using the technique of the $p$-adic Mellin transform. Then we show how to apply it to the construction of non-Archimedean measures and integrals corresponding to parabolic forms relative to the Hilbert groups. The exposition is in the adele language of Jacquet and Langlands. We construct $p$-adic $L$-functions associated with representations of $GL(2)$ over completely real fields, of discrete type at infinity.
