Title: Some Analogies Between Number Theory and Dynamical Systems on Foliated Spaces

In this article we describe what a cohomology theory related to zeta and $L$-functions for algebraic schemes over the integers should look like. We then point out some striking analogies with the leafwise reduced cohomology of certain foliated dynamical systems.
